Lmao you guys bitch whether the coach burns timeouts or if he doesn’t use them. Problem # 15 on the list of reasons why we are losing this game
It forces the Patriots to make a decision with a minute on the clock. It's much easier to go for it when there are 30 seconds left and all you don't need many yards. And when you're down 18 points, you need as much variance as possible, and calling time out increases the chances of a touchdown (for both teams).
Granted, there is risk, but when you're down 18 points, you really need to be calling time out there and forcing the Patriots to make a decision.
