Punting on 3rd down would be overly conservative since you get 4 downs. I've always thought the NFL was a little to conservative. But then at the college level I am a fan of Georgia Southern. The Triple Option coaches(Paul Johnson at Ga Tech, Jeff Monken at Army...both formerly of Georgia Southern) their philisophy is if with that type of offense, if you can't move the ball 2-3 yards a play either with a Fullback dive, a QB keeper/midline option, or pitching it to an A-Back. Then we have bigger problems than just turning the ball over.
