Yeah, I don't know how much that stuff works, but with your season riding on the foot of a guy who's confidence probably isn't the highest it's ever been, why not take the chance? It's not like you get to carry over the timeout if you don't use it.

If it doesn't work, the game is over and you don't need the timeout.

If it does work, you get the ball back with great field position and plenty of time left.

At least they decided to take the ball in OT. Something us Lions fans can't take for granted....
