I probably would have punted also,the only reason being is if you punt you dont get second guessed for punting.That said,I dont think it was a bad call,Manning was tearing them a new ass and that would have sealed it for the Pats if they made it.Your right about Zorn,last yr if I remember right he went for it twice on 4th down at the end of games to seal the victory and I was like"hell yeah" because you knew Gibbs would have punted and the other team would have took it and scored.If Pats would have made it everyones talking about what a great call it was.What it was was one gutsy call,depending on the players to make a play,it just didnt work out this time.
