It's already affecting playcalling. First drive in the second half they go for it on 4th & 6, well within field goal range, only up seven. Now, they ended up converting the 4th down and scored a touchdown on that drive, but nine times out of ten in a one possession game with that much time left on the clock, a team is going to take the, "automatic" three.
