If you’re the 12th man on special teams shouldn’t you be aware of it? (alien.top)

Do teams not use the same 11 players on field goal blocks for every play?

I can understand how you get 12 players on defense because someone was confused about what package you’re running, but if you’re the 12th guy on special teams shouldn’t you stop and think “Hey, I’m not usually out here for these plays, maybe I’m an extra?”

Blame McDermott. He had a timeout to talk it over and get it set. It was obvious that the Broncos might do another quick change.

i don't think they had a timeout to use.

I meant that they’d had plenty of time before the penultimate play to discuss
