The Bears had been running the ball down the Packers' throat all drive long, and then ran for like 16 yards in 3 carries after the holding call. Say what you will about the timing of the timeouts, but accepting the holding penalty was absolutely the right call. The Bears would've almost assuredly converted the 2nd and 4-5 they would've had without the holding, and then the game would've been over. Yep, he had to accept the penalty to prevent them from getting an easy first down and making timeouts irrelevant. It was still horrible clock management, but that was the right call.
