I have always thought it was a bad idea to give coaches the power to call a timeout. A player on the field has other responsibilities than a coach. I think they should require coaches only to call a timeout before the ready for play, but not while everyone is at the LOS. If a player calls a timeout, that would not bother me. But I think it is really bush to always call a timeout from the sideline when most officials are not aware of the request in the first place. If a player has to cover a play and they are late, they might get caught out of position. This is why I think only players should call a timeout during certain moments.

Peace
