Re: Who called the 2nd timeout?
What I don't understand is why the ref didn't just tell him when he called the timeout that he couldn't do it? That tells me that the ref on the sideline didn't know the rule. If a coach tries to call a timeout in that situation when he doesn't have one, the ref would just ignore him. He wouldn't come running in to stop the play. None of this excuses Gibbs, but it seems to me that at least one official was complicit in the mistake.
