And if the Vikings didn't know with 2:02 left on the clock whether to run it out or not that's not good. Literally the Bears only meaningful hope is to have a kickoff with one second or less going off the clock, O'Connell should be telling them that before the kickoff.

Is there a rule where if you committ the same foul intentionally multiple times where they eventually interject and do a run off?
The Patriots used to take delay of games outside 5 minutes because it would restart the clock. Every penalty and restart was a chance to run more time off the clock. But I think the league eventually changed the rule to stop this.
