For those wondering why Winter wound the clock, a sack stops the clock except in the last two minutes of the half, so on any down other than fourth inside of 2 minutes, he winds to alert the clock operator that it's not a normal sack situation where the clock stops.
So this means Winter had a brain cramp since it was fourth down. Wouldn't other officials signal the clock stoppage on fourth down, too? I know they would on my crew.
