Why take a time-out if you're going to punt in that situation?

Gotta love having Harris in fantasy and playing against the Browns D on that last play.

Fuck my ass dude. Christ. That's gonna lose me this week for sure. 100% guaranteed.

The point I was making was about field position. The clock was the same either way.
They still could have got the first. I don't see any down side to running the clock out and calling a time out.

The point was where they punted from. Normally teams take a delay of game penalty to give the punter more room to punt. Defenses often decline such a penalty to make it a shorter punt space. The Browns took a time-out to put themselves in a sub-optimal punting spot rather than take a penalty to 'improve' their situation. There was no difference in clock time and time-out was valueless. It was about where they wanted to punt from.

Maybe they felt there was some value to punting in a 4th < 5 situation as the defense would be less willing to risk being offside?
