Why Frank Reich will likely go for it on 4th down way more than Chuck Pagano did

Here's the scenario: The Colts are leading by 10 points and have the ball fourth-and-2 from their own 48-yard line late in the third quarter.

What does new Indianapolis Colts coach Frank Reich do? Play it safe and punt or let Andrew Luck and company try to put the game all but out of reach with a first down?

Reich’s predecessor, Chuck Pagano, faced a scenario like this – fourth down with his team leading by 10 or fewer points in the first three quarters — 50 times in six seasons and went for it three times.
