timeout happened here = https://cust35.myfootballnow.com/gamecenter/view/1996#363388

your link is a pass play.

anyway I think I know the reason SEATTLE(your team) took the timeout there is your head coach probably thought he should take a timeout in the hopes if the other team scores a touchdown that your team would have enough time on the clock to go down to score a touchdown or if even kick a field goal if your defense only gives up a field goal.

Though at times I wish teams wouldn't do that either in real life or in video games because my attitude about it is you are only helping the other team drain more clock if they desire so because if they think they can score a touchdown to put the game out of reach then really all you did was help the other team not your team.

I think by now we should just give up expecting the timeout issue to ever be fixed, just like all the BS defensive holding calls on DL who are engaged with a blocker.

I can understand why if JDB is anything like me....Once I get excited about something I forget about stuff and get tunnel vision .....I run a underground radio station and once I get excited about an artist I go back and listen to every song that artist ever made and neglect other parts of my station smh

well I do have to say maybe JDB is so busy with other stuff that some things do get tossed aside or put to the back burner.

I mean if he were to put everything on the roadmap to keep people updated it probably be like 10 pages long so in a way he has to decide what is more important than something else so he can have a small section of what is coming on the roadmap though just because that does happen or will happen doesn't mean he wont get to it .

So maybe after all that stuff on the roadmap right now is cleared off maybe the new stuff will feature the timeouts logic and holding calls on DL which only 1 person can only hope that will be the case.
