[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 1050994, member: 10086"] DUD. Matt’s Timeout usage At the end of the first Half. On the rewatch Detroit had the ball 3rd n Goal at the GB1/2 foot line. We stopped Detroit for 4th n Goal from GB2 with :57 sec on the clock. GB had just used its last Timeout. 1. The timeout wasted in a challenge flag cost GB a possession. Yes it was only :57 sec but that’s enough time for an attempt to get into FG range when we start at the GB30. GB only needed ~30-35 yards in 1 minute drill for 3 pts. At worst the fail and pin Detroit inside the 20 with 1 Timeout left and about :35 seconds. Instead Dan just let the clock wind and took away a Packer possession. 2. That poor decision to use the Red challenge flag = Detroit finished both halves with last possession. I don’t count our last play a possession it’s a kneel down play. Packers Getting 3pts there was critical in a close game. We now know how it could’ve pushed the game to OT. We have to stop wasting challenge flags. We’re terrible at challenges and it’s starting to cost us. I know mostly it doesn’t cost a game because we’d argue “it’s just the first half” I get it. But are points in the first half any less valuable than points in the 4th quarter? Quit wasting the ability to bank :40 seconds in exchange to challenge a 1st down spot unless it’s points or a 40+ type play or you have a 75% chance of overturning it. I don’t want to see another challenge flag thrown for frivolous reasons. [/QUOTE]
