And the 1 second suggestion. Why award A another play (possibly game winning) just because it was a close call? Doesn't that provide A with an advantage?

The way he described the play, the Ref was looking at the clock, saw time was remaining when A signaled for a time out. If the clock expired as the R blew his whistle or gave the signal to stop the clock, then A should be given 1 second OR given 1 play.

"the QB was not able to snap and spike the ball before the time elapsed"! What's your call?
p.s. And please let's not get into how some clocks operate, the timer, etc.

There is no way a QB can snap the ball, step from underneath the center, and spike the ball in 1 second. I would think there would have to be at least 3 seconds on the clock at the snap for any possibility of another play.
