You get down to Detroit 27 yard line with 2 timeouts remaining

Then matt calls a timeout soon when caleb hikes the ball

Then next play the TE is all karl malone with a pic play thats 15 yards

Then your QB who got clocks all around the stadium doesn’t see the time going down

And the coach like:ohhh::lupe:should i call TO or not

Chicago sports might be in its worst time ever with all they franchises
:dead:

Aye, I know Eberflus is a dumb ass but Caleb could’ve called timeout. Hell, they could’ve snapped with 11 seconds and ran the same play. Dude was moving like they had the 2 minute warning in their pocket.

The logic was Chicago didn't want to burn their final timeout then run a play on 3rd Down that ends in bounds, which results in the kicking unit sprinting out rushing the attempt to beat the clock

Trying to preserve the TO was fine but once the clock hits single digits you can't let Caleb snap that ball. Flus fell asleep at the wheel like he always does late and close.
Everybody understands what they were trying to do, I think actually more than they did :russ:

I get the logic before the play. But once you saw Caleb taking that long you gotta call the timeout and just attempt the FG. If you think the FG is too long then call the timeout and get a Hail Mary play called, because they didn't have that called on that play.

yup. you gotta call that timeout once the clock hit :15 after seeing how casual caleb was moving.
