    Every coach and team makes clock management mistakes. It literally happens all of the time.

    During the Saints/Bengals game yesterday, Carson Palmer could not get his team lined up to spike the ball and burned off 7 crucial seconds with under a minute to go before he was forced to burn their last timeout. The snap decision to be made was to either call the timeout immediately after the last play had ended or call a clocking play. He chose to call the clocking play and save the timeout. Tick...tick...tick...did not work in his favor that time.

    Lets move on from this stupid stigmata. People are looking for smoke in a 3 day old fire pit.

    If you have a qb that has the deer in the spotlight look on the field there is nothing a coach can do. If you have an oc that tries to sub half a dozen players with :30 secs left there is nothing a player can do. When you have a fool for an oc and a lost qb on the field you can't help but have problems
