[QUOTE="adambr2, post: 759786, member: 7277"] There are some intricacies to this too and some fine lines, because you also don't want to use a timeout with around 2:05 give or take a couple seconds, because that opens it up for the opposing offense to pass the ball, knowing that the 2 minute warning will hit after the play regardless of what they do. On the same token you also never want to call your last one around 2:45 on an early down. This is another peeve of mine. If you do, the 40 second clock after the next play likely won't start until 2:40 or later, letting the opposing team wind it all the way down to 2:00. Save it, let it wind there and you can force them to snap it again one more time before the 2:00 warning. Are coaches attending off-season classes on these things? [/QUOTE]
