Why didn't they run play before the 2 minute warning to gain an extra TO?

Has anyone mentioned that this is the 2015 AFCCG redux? Philly could be down 2 with over 2 mins to play and all 3 timeouts left.

Real stupid to not run that play before the 2 minute warning, as there was always a very high percentage chance of needing to get the ball back even if they converted there. Basically just threw away a timeout.

I get that McCown can barely move and he’s played as well as I could have expected, etc.

That said, there’s literally no downside to throwing that ball. WTF?

It's malpractice. If I knew that immediately, what was Pedey thinking about?

Man, I might’ve taken the two FGs and get the ball back at my 30 with 1:30 left.

Going for it twice on 4th down with McCown?

He had nobody and got flushed pretty quickly. A pick six ends the game - I get what you are saying but a 40 year old clipboard holder is probably in no shape to get the ball out quickly against a good defense.
