SDS Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Is that how valuable a time out is these days? It seems like every NFL team is on auto-pilot. If you can't get the play off - call a time out and save the 5 yards. Does anyone think that sometimes - saving the TO is worth more than the 5 yards?
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 Why the hell not take the delay? They would probably have just false-started after the timeout anyway.
SDS Posted October 12, 2009 Author Posted October 12, 2009 Yes, Sal Maiorana would agree with you. Nice catch.
Albany,n.y. Posted October 12, 2009 Posted October 12, 2009 We also lost a time out at the end of the 3rd quarter. How stupid can a coach be to bring his team to the sidelines with the clock running and the other team on the field. If Mandummy wasn't as bad as Jauron, Cleveland would have been smart enough to line up, snap the ball & run for a long TD before the Bills could have called time out.
