That plus the timeout at 2:01 really saved the saints some time on the clock. I had to SMH at my brother who text me asking why SP took that timeout before the 2 minute warning.

I was at the game and the 9er fan behind me gasped audibly.

I thought to myself...wtf?? Why would he do that??

By the way, the 49ers had a 55% chance of winning the game when they got the ball back the last time.

I always wonder how coaches are allowed to get away with arse-clownery like this, but now I know why. People like you are not only not bright enough to realize how stupid that timeout was but actually go as far as to praise Payton for it.

That timeout saved exactly 1 second at the cost of a timeout. The next play was an incomplete pass so the clock would have stopped anyway. The 2 minute warning was not used to stop the clock.

Jesus Christ, I hope you were being sarcastic with your post although I really just don't think you were.

IIRC that was prior to Hartley's kick to tie it and I think he took the TO to save some time on the back side of the 2 minute warning in case of a missed kick.

You should have seen the Saints Board. Many many were blasting Payton. Guess they all go by the Les Miles school of playing not to lose.
