They presented the scenario to Bill on WEEI and he said he never considered allowing a score. In fact he reminded them of the stop Willie made...ages ago.
He insists he didn't distrust his defense in going for it, just had utmost confidence in the offense to get the conversion based on personnel and play selection options, and that making it would have allowed them to run out all or most of the clock without giving back any control over the situation to the opponent.
I believe him, but I sure would've felt better with Brady out there with 70 seconds needing 40 yds or so then Colts 1st and goal at the 1.
