Good question brought up in Rodney McCleod interview on WIP just now

[IronEagle]

Why the F did the Broncos call multiple timeouts in the final two minutes?

[headknocker]

That was bush league horseshit.

I was waiting for somebody on either team to go down with a serious injury with that unnecessary crap.

I obviously knew it would never happen but I was hoping Gomer would attempt a FG to rub salt in the wound.

That Broncos team is a mess. Coach looks clueless. QB(s) are clueless. Defense talks an awful lot for giving up 51.

I'll be rooting hard for them next weekend, but I don't get it.

I was hoping he would as well. I was telling my wife that the Birds were trying to run the clock out, but if they want to use their timeouts, they should have went for the TD or the FG.

I would've loved to have seen Gomer do the fake-kneel Buddy Ryan thing.

Every time they called a timeout we were booing their azzez off.

Of course, more than half the stadium had left by then. I stuck around because I had a train to catch at 6:18. So I got to enjoy every enjoyable second.

Coach was definitely butthurt after that Foles pass to Agholor on 4th down!

Sweet throw. Agholor celebrated like Dwight Clark a tad after though.

THEY WANTED THE FANS TO ENJOY THE MOMENT JUST A BIT LONGER. IT WORKED.

One of the things about the fans in this town: they don't like their time wasted. That's part of the whole success/failure frustration, and moments like pointless time outs bring it all to the surface.

Yeah we cold have been eating our victory tomato pie 10 minutes earlier!
