Saints could have called timeout at 32 seconds when tackled in bounds.

Instead they spike it, flag, and then snap the ball again will 11 seconds.

It’s like they were not even trying to win the game!!!!! Playing not to lose.


Could of had the ball at the 25 yard line, 32 seconds, and first down!!!


Sean is an idiot!!

Nah, shoulda called the final timeout when we got the 3rd down stop with 2:50 to play.

Getting the ball back with 2:40 and no timeouts is a ton of time, and we woulda had 1 minute left instead of 20 seconds at the point of the false start at the end.

Wrong. In the end you are left with near identical scenarios

The only difference is calling the TO before the FG leaves more room for error

Just stop it with this shite

Agree 100%. That punt took away the 2:00 stoppage also

End of game was mismanaged

You either use both TO’s before 2 min warning or none

2 min warning and change of possession occurred on same play. Wasted the TO, and ever had the chance to use the other

Doesn’t really matter. That team wasn’t going on a road playoff run anyway

Exactly. It was a poor decision.
