Ok.
Here's one.
It seems like no matter what the situation is, if the offensive team is actually trying to move the ball at the end of the half (or game), once the two minute warning hits, they will immediately call 2 of their 3 TOs on consecutive plays.
This is frustrating when, for example, you hit a long pass and now have the ball 1st and goal at the 5 yard line.
Why call a timeout with 1:45 to go? Maybe you then run it for 1 yard, and now you'll call your second timeout with 1:40 left.
Can you post an example? They should go into a clock draining mode at this point, so there must be something else that preventing that from happening.

- Offense moves the ball to tbh opp 32 with 1:51 left and immediately takes a timeout. I can certainly see some urgency but I'm not sure that you really want a timeout there.

- Offense runs it up the middle for 3 yards to the opponent 10 with 1:21 left and immediately takes a timeout, this is certainly a part of the field and situation where you don't mind letting the clock bleed some as the offense.

- This is a situation where the defense might typically consider a timeout, after the offense fails to pick up the first down.
