So generally, the math would say that Montgomery made the right play there. In general, if you are behind (especially late in the game), your risk tolerance as a team should increase. So, you would accept the risk of starting behind the 20 yard line (or of fumbling) in order for the smallish chance of the return going for a touchdown or starting with very good field position.
Of course, as a player, if your coach tells you not to do something and you do it, well, you made the wrong play, regardless of whether return it for a touchdown or fumble the ball (though I wonder if Montgomery had made a big play there how much we would hear about the dirty laundry).
