I believe you need to listen to Rodgers breakdown of that choice on the Mcafee show. I'll trust his judgement and criticism in higher regard to most of us fans.
Listen, I've been armchair quarterbacking for a few years now and let me tell you... ok you're right I'm not an authority.
But my gut tells me that one must be aggressive in this situation and go for glory. To play passive is a recipe to get beat in this situation. If one is down material in chess (points) you don't just play logically and hope the other guys screws up... you have to take the initiative, throw the kitchen sink at them and go for bust.
I'll listen to that audio and come back.
EDIT: Ok I listened to the full thing. I get it. The "what if" game for critics to have a field day with. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. Either decision and your either a genius or hated. I still stand by my gut feeling and think that they gotta go for it and put it all on the line. My opinion. I totally get that it's basically a no win situation if it doesn't work either way.
