Does anyone else hate the Chew clock feature?

[Raw-Cane]

Once again i havent seen the ball for the whole 3rd quarter...They should tone it down... Has any one else had an obscene amount of time chewed on them due to this feature?

yea it sucks but not when your the team trying to chew the clock. Plus, if it annoys you then try to have a lead in the 3rd quarter so you don't have to worry about it

it's no different than if the other team just waits until 1-2 seconds before they snap it.

what? I believe the feature he is talking about makes the clock wind down rapidly around 10-15 seconds as the QB is walking up to the LOS. I agree with him that it is really annoying. While it could be looked at as 'realism' its really not considering the fact the quarters are 5 minutes long, not 15.

well to be honest ... when i got my internet back ive been playing a lot again and it seems everyone is using a multiple playbook or THE multiple playbook generic.. and 90% of the time on their first possession of the game i see the clock run down to 11 out of the huddle.Now all bs aside my defense hasnt been strong it seems my real world football sense means nothing but whatever . but in relative terms there is a 2 4 and even 8 minute offense IRL but ive NEVER seen a team have the ball for a WHole quarter on one possession.seriously when your team is trying to chew the clock you run and punt nothing fancy alot of dives and isos not sweeps what im getting at is there should be disadvantages for choosing conservative in a situation that doesnt call for it...

It's the same thing if your opponent wants to run the clock down. The only difference is you don't have to wait the extra 15 seconds or so every play. That process is sped up which makes for a much more efficient game. So the question is would you rather wait around while your opponent lets the clock run down or would you rather the use the conservative clock management and not have to wait. Personally, I'd chose the latter.

this. it's the exact same thing if your opponent does not use chew clock and just waits until 1-2 second on the play clock to snap the ball. it doesn't take more time off. it just makes those seconds go off faster.
