Should they have kicked a field goal instead since they were on like the 30 yard line? I'd say it's easier to stop a 4th down attempt than a field goal.
Or perhaps they should have just taken a knee even though there were 2 minutes left. To me that's just as bad as going for the TD because it makes the cowboys look like they need charity.

I guess the only acceptable option would have been to run the ball, but if the RB broke it for a TD we'd still be in the same situation.

Exactly.

I said this in the beginning of the thread that these are professional football players. It's not Central Virginia Valley State University College versus the University of Alabama. I have no problem with scoring every time you have a chance.

I'm only sad the Vikings didn't put up more points on them.

So you had no prob with the Pats running up the score on us, when there is realistically no impact that score had on the result?
