Either way change the conversion rate to 45 percent and the call still makes sense.
Because there is a better chance that a team could go deep, short pass, run up the middle, or any type of play because if they lose its still at the 50. While at the 28 its mostly consevertative plays. Short quick pass or run up the middle.
The defense can be more aggressive.
