I think he didn't know we were out of time outs

[nelsonmuntz]

It looks like he tried to call one. Idiot.

 

[Athlete94]

What a fool, waste a time out with 17 seconds left , momentum all their way, then offense shows no hurry to get to the ball. This is all on the coaches

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Burned 2 timeouts in last 40 seconds when the clock was stopped both times. Moron.

I think he thought we got the time out back since replay looked at the previous play.
We should have gotten it back under that circumstance, but I guess that isn't the rule. Either way, you have to check with the ref if you aren't sure.

I look at it this way: if you throw you can get three plays, if you run you get two plays at most, maybe only one.
Incredibly stupid to run there.

This team has too little margin for error to keep having bonehead game management issues. This is year 3 for Bob - he just can't do that. Inexcusable.

Unbelievable

I'm okay with the first one because the clock was only stopped until the ball was placed and it was going to take a bit to get everyone set. The last one is literally terrible.

He should play some madden football

That's not the time to use it. A better choice would have been the BS slide short of the first down. He has to go.

After what I just saw, I think the team has room for error. The coaches don't.

We are good when we play to win and go for it. The clock managment and conservative play calling are our only real issues. The D gives up some big plays but they seem to learn and adjust. They've been good in the second half.

The first one was fine, it was a long play. Not just the time but to give the players a blow.

The last one was obviously ridiculous.

 

[jcaprio90]

My question is, and in now way is this to defend him because that call is totally inexcusable, is shouldn't we have gotten our last timeout back after the replay? The reviewed a play that happened prior to the timeout, isn't the rule we get it back? Or am I wrong on that?

I'm adamantly against giving the players a blow there. Why? Because the other team needs to catch their breath more than the offense. That defense was reeling. No pass rush, slow footed D.

No, even in the NFL you lose the timeout in that situation.

People are confusing the challenge rule with a normal timeout.

 

[lavuuk153]

I agree with that sentiment but if our staff felt like they'd waste too much time getting set up then, while that's a problem, I'm okay with that TO.

I just think they were reeling so take advantage of them.

I guess it might be somewhat defensible.

But it continued to go bad. After the Magala catch, there should have been a spike. Spike the ball there.

No need for a timeout at all. You have 20-30 seconds left. Spike it.

Then you have 2nd down and 1 timeout.

 

[hneffjr]

The coach is a really light weight.
Has recruited well but is not a D 1 quality coach.
Pressure situations leave him at a loss.
Too bad he is a nice guy but a terrible coach when it's on the line

Didn't even need to spike it after Hergys catch. He went out of bounds, clock was stopped. The TO was to prevent a delay of game because we apparently still can't get a play called on time

They must have thought they got the timeout back due to the replay?

 

[Jarhead_1775]

Did anyone go back and look at why the clock didn't stop when Thomas got out of bounds (twice?)... Am I missing something?

 

[lavuuk153]

If you're talking about early in the drive I think the clock only stops until the ball is spotted on an OOB play with over 2 minutes left.

 

[Jarhead_1775]

Oh, ok. Guess I never noticed.

 

[lavuuk153]

I wish college would just change their timing rules to the NFL. I hate that college teams get more plays than NFL teams. No more clock stopping after a first down and give them a 2 min warning.

If you spike it though, you have plenty of time for anything you want to do, and a timeout.
