Or how long do you give them to change their mind? I've been taught you give them their options, let them make their choice, and enforce it.
Also I really wanted to see someone try a free kick.

If the officials gave the coach the wrong information, then I see nothing wrong with correcting that mistake. I was not in the huddle of the officials and I have no idea why they reversed themselves, but you do not want to end a game if the officials were totally in the wrong. It might not have looked good, but the idea is to get it right when you have time to get it right.
I also do not know NFL rules very well so there could be provisions to do what these officials did.
