...with 10:16 left we take a time out. WHAT THE FUCK !

If you really want to kill momentum, why not just drop back and throw the fucking ball in the stands...then maybe spike it twice. Who was responsible for that?

Ben? Arians? Tomlin? They are pretty much the only 3 at that point that would give the indication of a timeout. It seemed like Ben didn't like the call given what the defense was giving him..or maybe the time-clock was ticking and he didn't have enough time to set then get the cadence off.. I was at the game so I don't know, but Ben took it pretty quick, so that's on Ben for obvious reasons. Still, it gave enough time for the boys to draw a plays for 5 yards and they didn't get it done.

Thanks for the info. What blew my mind was the momentum killer. You have a defense on it's heels...GET IT DONE. Believe it or not, the running plays didn't even piss me off. At any level of football, and I've watched it too many times this season, a time out such as that does nothing but give the defense time to regroup....WTF.

I'm still pissed.
