[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 937611, member: 7261"] The timeout I am thinking about was in the 3rd Q at the 2:55 mark. The Packers had the ball at the Bear 2 yard line, 4th and goal and up 35-27. So if he draws them offsides it doesn't get them a first down, just a potential free play or 1 yard closer. I also think with the Packers being up by 8 points, the goal was to go up by 11 there, which they did when Mason nailed the FG. ;) Let's just say that wasn't an ideal time or situation to burn a timeout, especially if the intended purpose was just to pick up 1 more yard. I have also noticed that the Refs have become a lot less generous at giving Rodgers "Free Plays" when the defense does jump offsides, seems like they blow the play dead almost immediately when it does happen. Also, the smarter move in that scenario, would have been to have simply taken a delay of game and pushed the ball back to the 7 and not waste the timeout. [/QUOTE]
