It was 4th and 11 how does a 5 or 10 yard penalty change ne thing when u are that deep in the hole. Smart play is snap ball to ur punter then challenge. Cause what if GB muffs it.

The point isn't to take the penalty yards. the point is to essentially give yourself a free play.
scenario 1)
You snap the ball when there is 12 guys on the field and your fake punt is succesful in getting u a first down. awesome.
scenario 2)
you snap the ball when there is 12 guys on the field and your fake punt fails. Big deal, take the 5 yard penalty and then just go with your original plan to punt, only this time you got 5 extra yards out of the deal. i'd take it.
scenario 3)
you're too late and we see what happened the other night. FUCK.
