    This really bothers me about the NFL

    These players and the ones coaching the players are getting paid millions of dollars. Teams get into a 2-12 or a 3-13 and they run stupid @## draw plays or screens in which the whole world see it coming and get stopped. Drop back and rip the ball down the field like the Detroit Lions do on 3-19 and get a 58 yard td like tate did in london. It's pathetic

    I will never understand why so many coaches are unable to use their timeouts correctly.
    Dallas was in fg range , third down coming up , zona still with 2 timeouts but let the clock ticking down .
    Fg for dallas is blocked and returned 30 or 40 yards but clock hits zero and zona goes into the ht with 2 timeouts.

    NFL playcalling has gotten very conservative

    The last two years has been the year of the 5 yard pass

    Its called field position small chance you convert that 3rd and 13 in this league not going for it on 4th anyway so play it safe before you throw an int or qb sack and fumble.

    clearly you belong on the sidelines with these bums...if its 3-18 at the teams own 42 you rip it 50 yards down the field...if int then so be it...probably better than the bum punter can do anyways.

    Really? So just throw a bomb? You know that takes time to develop right? What if you get sacked and fumble, there is a reason you see more draw plays or regular runs in that situation than what youre talking about, its called field position, you just learned something today.

    While we are at it. You would think that an assistant coach or someone would be in charge of keeping watch over the clock and to let the HC [who are obviously too retarded to notice] know.

    Its called loss aversion, NFL coaches vastly overrated the negligible benefit of few assured yards of field position pre punt, While underrating the massive benefit of a low percentage large play.

    I totally agree with this. I was only stating why they do what they do, not that I agree with it every time.

    Falcons are the worst when it comes to time management and calling plays, thats why those fukks blew a 21pt lead.
