A couple thoughts.
That 0.8 sec. could have been actually used if B had not had positive player control immediately, but if B went up and clamped the ball, the official could have reset to 2.2.

I have to disagree with you, mick. In NF play, the timer is allowed up to one second lag time. We have to allow him an opportunity to start and stop the clock. 5.10.1b Comment
Also, where does it say that a team can ask for a timeout before they actually have the ball unless it's dead? They may tell you that they're going to request a timeout if they get the ball. That might save them a split second because you're waiting for the request but they still have to make that request when they gain possession. 5-8-3a,b
