Indeed.

Which happens more often?

1) An NFL game is won with a time-expiring Hail Mary
2) An NFL game is lost with a missed time-expiring kick from close range

My bet is it's the latter, so I think the Giants were right to take the lead (even if the scorer regretted it). Therefore the Patriots were wrong to offer the easy touchdown.

Also if the Patriots has not allowed a touchdown the Giants could have blown it in other ways (a la Rivers earlier this season).
