I was only half paying attention at that point.  Can you explain what happened to me like I'm 5?

when it's 2nd and short you value the ability to stop them within the time left better on a new 1st and 10 than giving them a play on 2nd down which lets them milk more clock after they pick it up

Second and one. They’re likely going to get it. That brings it from 3 plays to 4 plays. Or if they hold them on second and short and they get it to third and short, that’s still likely to get them a first down.

By jumping offsides, it resets the plays to three plays to get a stop.

It saves your team 40 or 80 seconds.
