Put me down on the side of "no freaking way I'd ever put it on the floor here."
I have put the ball on the floor a few times. I think the last time was about 2012.
That said, the times I've done it are when I've had to work too hard to get a team out earlier in the game and the team subsequently hasn't bothered starting to break the huddle on the second horn later even with an official in there trying to break it up. They figure I won't do anything about it...and that's when I will.
