Not to sound like a fan here, but: During #Patriots last drive, stadium clock showed 4 seconds & then went to 6 before next snap.

[Mr. Scot]

The stadium clock is official

But is correctable by officials, as happens frequently.

Ok, but the stadium clock is official. There is no other clock.

Thought this was interesting. So these teams like the Seahawks who utilize a "12th man" seems sketchy as hell...

 

 

1. When, in the judgment of the Referee, the level of crowd noise prevents the offense from hearing its signals, he can institute a series of procedures which can result in a loss of team time outs or a five-yard penalty against the defensive team.

Per Adam Schefter on ESPN, the clock operator at Bank of America Stadium allowed for an additional four seconds to run off the clock after Ted Ginn's touchdown play would have technically been over. Those four seconds, Schefter asserts, would have given Tom Brady and the Patriots one more play to try and score.

 

Does this asshole know how many times a game a runner goes out of bounds and the clock operators leave the clock running?

[nosuchthingasapanther]

That type of thing literally happens every game.

 

this.

 

people need to stop fishing. the only thing left in the water are worthless minnows.

they mad

[Huell]

I thought about this too lol, nobody will notice that though.

Shefter is a big Pats fan an should lose his job.

Just read a Person tweet that states that clock operators are league employees, not stadium employees.  Douchebags just need to let this crap go already.

Irrespective of this particular instance, NFL clock management and ball positioning is abysmal for a supposedly professional league. There's at least 30-40 seconds of inaccuracy per game and at least 7-10 yards of inaccurate positioning.

Correct, which makes it weird how Schefter doesn't know that.
