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.

well, you want them to burn the timeout.

and you hope to catch them off guard to get the ball closer for a FG.

spiking the ball would have been a disaster


I wish they didn't lose yards either. Its not like they set out to do that
