That mind fricked me. We were going into a FG anyway and Philly would call a TO to ice the kicker. Brees should've spiked it instead of handing it off IMHO



spiked it?

to stop the clock?

Yes. Going into a field goal on fourth down chances are the eagles call a timeout anyway to ice the kicker. And the extra few yards give us a two possession lead. I see it both ways, I just wish we didn't lose yards on a bumbled audible and hurried snap.

If we had the team set and a play called obviously you run it, but we didn't. Brees was audibling we had already called a time-out the previous play, and he looked confused about where the play clock was. He even got in a fight with Payton afterwards. I'm saying in that specific instance, I wish he would have spiked it to save The Yards instead of losing a few yards that may have cost us the field goal.
