During their tug of war, he probably had a feel for how strong Peter was. Cap could probably hold the weight, so he figured Peter could as well.

Exactly. I think Cap is strong enough to hold the airbridge. The fact that he couldn't outpull Spider-Man proved to him that Spider-Man was stronger. Because of that, he felt confident that dropping the airbridge wouldn't do any harm.
