I disagree. Here's why:

There's a minute left in the half. You don't want to give Favre two mins to come back down on you and score. So you run the toss play to the right to keep the clock moving. If Heyer makes his block, Portis only has to make one guy miss and he's in the endzone. Because Heyer missed, 40 seconds run off the clock, and we ended up scoring on the next play.

Well in that case. I retract my previous statement.
