It may have been smart and unselfish but if he scored it would have put them up by two scores. Cowgirls would have had to score a touchdown, get the 2 point conversion and then recover an onside kick, move down the field and kick a FG to tie it- all with less than 2 minutes, no timeouts and a boo-boo on Tony OH-No's thumb.
Westbrook should have just scored!
