This is an old football saying, meaning blockers should push rushers in the direction they are headed so running space is opened. More generally it is similar to the Judo technique of using an opponent's force against them.
The sixties Packers used a run for daylight blocking system.

Get the run for daylight mug.
A 4v1 game in which killers and survivors must work together to avoid a terrifying creature known as Nea Karlsson.

Nea is a powerful being that stalks and kills those who she finds.

Many characters have their own abilities to protect them. Dwight has an ability that lets him hide in lockers indefinitely. Claudette can go invisible when near tall grass. The Hillbilly can use his chainsaw to run away extremely fast. The nurse can quickly get behind walls by blinking through them. Feng Min is a great distraction, though she never lasts long as a result...

In the end though, Nea finds and kills ALL survivors.
Person 1: Wanna play some Dead by Daylight?

Person 2 : Ugh. It's always the same. You run away from Nea as fast as can and that's it man. It's so boring!

Wasting time. Literally, losing valuable daylight hours (of which there never seem to be enough of).
C'mon! Get the lead out! We're burning daylight here!

Wasting time during hours when the sun is up. People were often only able to work when they could see outside.
Jimmy should have been out mowing the lawn, but instead he was burning daylight playing video games in the basement.

If the area below the vagina and above the knees does not touch, then a girl is said to have a daylight basement.

The time when the clock changes an hour. More the time when everybody is confused on why the sun is going down so early.
"Ugh. It feels like it's five in the morning."
'Looks at clock' 5:00
"Holy shit it is five in the morning! I hate Daylight savings!
