Who called the 2nd timeout?

I know Gibbs called the first, but who called the 2nd? They never said he did. It could have been a player. I don't think it's an excuse, but seriously any idiot knows the rules and if Gibbs was the one who called it he really isn't helping us win.

I don't even know what to say.

Re: Who called the 2nd timeout?

Whoever it was is gonna have a whole world of shit coming their way, that's for sure. I hope it wasn't Gibbs the dude is old enough to know the rules and the penalties. I can excuse lack of knowledge from a player but not from an old coach.

Gibbs just admitted that he did it. End of story.

Gibbs is falling on his sword now in the post-game presser.

Yup. Just said he made a "heat of the moment" decision.

Basically saying he forgot the damn rule. Thanks Joe. :screama:

Just hope he won't be stubborn enough to return for another year. Please, just retire at the end of this mediocre year.

Re: Who called the 2nd timeout?

Another 5-11 year is starring us in the face. Say what you want, but when the team as a whole isn't playing well, constantly flat, not doing simple tasks, it eventually comes down to coaching. It trickles from the top down. Blaming it on depth on the Oline? Guess who the team President is.

Gibbs v2 failed. Get him out.

Re: Who called the 2nd timeout?

I think Gibbs acknowledged calling both, but does the TO really make a difference. We should not have allowed then the opportunity to be in FG range.

We should have had a double digit lead at that point if we finish red zone drives in the first half. This team must learn to finish drives. Another false start on a 4th and 1 inside the 10. The strength of Gibbs 1.0 was a stout O-line. Gibbs 2.0 hasn't invested higher than a 5th round pick to build young O-line depth.
With the entire starting O-line approaching 30 years or older, it's time to draft young depth with higher draft choices.

yes it does make a difference because that is how joe gibbs plays the game unfotunatley and that is to barely win, or not win at all.

Re: Who called the 2nd timeout?

Gibbs blew it and then they focus the camera in on Landry to make it look like he did something. I mean how can you not know the rules. You haven't coached college since 1972 so what makes you think the rules are the same. You think he would have learned by now. It's rediculous plus that soft zone crap we play in so they can just work their way down the field.

Good teams can put up more than 17 points. Yes, our defense bent but not that much. A good team should be able to put up 20+ points each week.

I agree that the O is terrible and because they cant score it makes every game close. Sure the D didnt bend much but as usual they cant make a stop with the game on the line. This is just not a good team.

I agree. Only one touchdown the entire game..that's the issue, not an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty call.
