Dumb Decisions: The STUPIDEST Timeout EVER | Falcons @ 49ers (1977)

In a 1977 NFL week 4 game between the Atlanta Falcons and the San Francisco 49ers, the 49ers were trailing by seven points with two minutes left, and time not on their side. Inexplicably, under the orders of head coach Ken Meyer, they decided to call a timeout while the clock was stopped. And the explanation for why they did it truly makes no sense whatsoever.
