I understand what you're saying but I've never seen a coach take that coarse of action.
I can think of an example where a team chose to run the ball to burn time off because kneeling wouldn't do the job.
I could be wrong but isn't the knee done when you can run the clock out? I've NEVER heard of anyone kneeling to run MOST of it out then punt on purpose. That sounds like something Mario would do to show us he learned the kneel.
