However Bears were playing prevent and if you properly mix quick passes on crossers towards sideline you could potentially get 5 plays off for ~50 yards total (you need the Bears39) and still have 1-2 seconds before calling the last of 3 Timeouts. From there it’s long 56 but it’s a possibility with Brandon.Let me ask this question. If GB was at their own 11 yard line needing a FG to Win and they had 3 Timeouts and 30 seconds, would we run up the middle for +4 and then let the clock run down and expire?Then why did we kneel on it before Halftime??  That’s exactly what happened. We had at maximum 5 plays of 5-6 seconds each and only 3/5 would need to get out of bounds. (2 Timeouts+1 for Teams).Can a WR or RB run 16 yards(10 vertical +6 yards lateral out of bounds) in about 5-6 seconds each? Then why give up?  Look below..how many timeouts did we offer up?Even if you misjudged it the first play. You still had :26 seconds left and 2 Timeouts had you burned a TO at our 15 yard line after this +4 Run. That’s still 5 plays to get 46 yards.</blockquote>
