I think when it was snapped, and subsequently kicked, the center, holder, and kicker were well aware that it was a "practice try".

Re: Does "Icing" the kicker really work?
Which is what happened on the Falcon's/Seahawk Game with 8? seconds left yesterday. What was a hoot on that game was watching Pete Carroll strut and fuss around the sidelines like he didn't know who called the timeout, when the cameras clearly showed him telling the ref "timeout" right before the snap. Atlanta kicker missed that kick. But he made the kick on the second try after the timeout, and won the game for Atlanta. It clearly put Seattle out of the playoffs! And it was a 49 yard kick, with under 10 seconds. Pretty much as high pressure as it gets! Against Pete Carroll. Couldn't happen to a more deserving coach (not team). In my opinion, of course!

If the kicker KNOWS there is a timeout remaining, and he is going through his routine, RIGHT UP TO SECOND that ball is snapped, the kicker is waiting for the whistle to blow, and NOT thinking about the kick. "IS LUCY GOING TO PULL THAT FOOTBALL OUT OF THERE??" To me it's like running to set up play action. You HAVE to run now and again to make the play action a viable threat. I see not calling that timeout most of the time as a strategy. Provided of course that you occasionally DO call one. |
