    I think it does but it handles it a diffrent way. I know one game I played agianst the Vikings and the score was tied at 28. I was running the ball to run the time down and score trying to leave the Vikings with little or no time to score left. The Vikings didn't call one timeout to stop the clock. They ran the kickoff back with seconds left to force overtime. I would've thought there wasn't any comeback logic either until that happened. If they would've used some of their timeouts during this I too would've agreed. This game has comeback logic and every football game for that matter.

    I don't know how that proves there's comeback code. Like I said, I know for a fact that there is none.

      I have had the Computer not use timeouts on Defense on me and I got nervous like this may be a bug or something. Then on offense they didn't use timeouts as they began to move down the feild but as they got into to my territory they started burning timeouts. The CPU seems to use the TOs at the very last second so I guess they were saving them for offense, but U couldn't stop the return so it wasn't needed.

                              It's due to team scouting. If you play the same team multiple times over the course of a season without mixing up your playcalling the cpu will evetually stop you. You have to mix up your plays in season/franchise mode.
                              EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.
