I’m pretty sure that was on first down. Slightly more excusable on 3rd in the name of being aggressive and going for the TD. Still the correct thing in that scenario is to make sure you get points on both the final drive before the half and when you get the ball first in the second half. That’s the whole reason teams defer until the second half. It gives you a chance to score back to back and really put pressure on the other team. Hopefully Mahomes learned that lesson and also learned that scoring too quickly almost as bad as not scoring at all. With our defense we should just consider that giving the ball back to the opponent with more than 15 seconds left is bad clock management. We almost lost the Denver game due to poor clock manangement too.
