Thank you from the bottom of my cold, dead heart, Mr. Marcellus.

I've heard those arguments (slow the game down, don't score too quickly, rest your defense) all off-season. Although I understand the basic idea, the legitimacy of the logic escapes me. Touchdowns in the NFL are super-duper-important and you don't prioritize six minutes over six points.

If you have a shot, you take it. Then, if you have another shot, you take that one too. Then you keep taking shots until you convince the opponent that they should have never suited up for the game ... or the 3rd quarter ... whichever comes first.
