I'm just confused how the Bengal benefited from throwing the flag. If they had timeouts left, why not just call one to give the replay booth more time instead of throwing the red flag?

It's my understanding that if they didn't have any timeouts they would've been given a 15 yd penalty

End result is the same, throwing the challenge flag just allowed Marvin to yell his case more at the head referee.

This is true. But there seems to be a huge flaw in the system when you have to have a timeout to get a review even though every play is supposed to be reviewed.
