You also have to factor in when the Lions get the ball back there is a possibility they score no more points and Chiefs get ball back with plenty of time for Mahomes. Or who knows what else might happen. But they are going to have to play offense when you have 4 timeouts. The point is 4th and 25 is NOT happening 97% of the time. So you take that off the table. There is no value to gain at such a low success rate regardless of the situation or anything else. Unless it is a total Hail Mary situation.

Mahomes will convert 4th and 25 at a much higher rate than 3%. It’s probably more like 15-20 which is just insane.
