The spike why?

Do you think it is easier to score a touchdown from 45 yards out with a 1st year qb with 3 plays or 4 at your discretion? It is scripted what you run on first down in a 2 minute drill. Run a risk free short sideline route. If you catch it you either get a couple yards and not much time off the clock or you break it wide open for multiple yards . If you miss it same as spike but you took a shot at advancement. All that spiking it does is give you one less down.

Yes - I think its easier to score without all of the pressure of the clock. Look no further than the last play of the game for us. Do you think that was in the two minute script.

You make my point for me. Thanks. Cutting the available options lead to the panic and 4th down spike. The sack could have occurred on 2nd down leaving the option for spike on 3rd down
