Message: [QUOTE="Millhouse, post: 5173072, member: 78"] I think defensive head coaches are generally too focused on what is best for the defense in absolute terms and not what's best for the team relative to the other team Calling a timeout helps the defense so they do it. An offensive coach is more likely in my opinion to consider if it helps the other teams offense more than it helps you Punt decisions are often made thinking of how hard it would be for the defense to potentially defend a short field. I'm talking generally here It's not awful to call timeout, not killing him for that by itself but it just didn't seem like it accomplished a thing while it had to have helped Stanford [/QUOTE]
