I know they've had plenty of games where they ran clock or kneeled it out in previous years, but not at the goal line in the regular season. I'd like to see examples of it on the goal line. It happened with McKinnon in the Super Bowl, but that doesn't count in the regular season stats you brought up earlier. It has happened twice in only 5 games this year.
If you're bringing up points per play, that's kind of a big deal when 40% of the games were impacted by a choice to not score on the goal line after long drives. Make no mistake, those "zero point" drives to seal victory over JAX & NYJ were just as important as any scoring drive this season. 25 plays, no points, but a ton of clock taken away from the opponent at the very end.
