Timing and Timeouts in <strong>NFL</strong> games<br />
1. The stadium game clock is official. In case it stops or is<br />
operating incorrectly, the Line Judge takes over the official<br />
timing on the field.<br />
2. Each period is 15 minutes. The intermission between the<br />
periods is two minutes. Halftime is 12 minutes, unless<br />
otherwise specified.<br />
3. On charged team timeouts, the Field Judge starts watch and<br />
blows whistle after 1 minute 50 seconds, unless television<br />
does not utilize the time for <strong>com</strong>mercial. In this case the<br />
length of the timeout is reduced to 40 seconds.<br />
4. The Referee will allow necessary time to attend to an injured<br />
player, or repair a legal player’s equipment.<br />
5. Each team is allowed three timeouts each half.<br />
6. Time between plays will be 40 seconds from the end of a<br />
given play until the snap of the ball for the next play, or a<br />
25-second interval after certain administrative stoppages<br />
and game delays.<br />
7. Clock will start running when ball is snapped following all<br />
changes of team possession.<br />
8. With the exception of the last two minutes of the first half<br />
and the last five minutes of the second half, the game clock<br />
will be restarted following a player going out of bounds on<br />
a play from scrimmage, or after declined penalties when<br />
appropriate on the referee’s signal.<br />
9. Consecutive team timeouts can be taken by opposing teams<br />
but the length of the second time out will be reduced to 40<br />
seconds.<br />
10. When, in the judgment of the Referee, the level of crowd<br />
noise prevents the offense from hearing its signals, he can<br />
institute a series of procedures which can result in a loss of<br />
team timeouts or a five-yard penalty against the defensive<br />
team.<br />
Sudden Death<br />
1. The sudden-death system of determining the winner shall<br />
prevail when score is tied at the end of the regulation<br />
playing time of all <strong>NFL</strong> games. The team scoring first<br />
during overtime play shall be the winner and the game<br />
automatically ends upon any score (by safety, field goal, or<br />
touchdown) or when a score is awarded by Referee for a<br />
palpably unfair act.<br />

Sudden Death (continued)<br />
2. At the end of regulation time the Referee will immediately<br />
toss coin at center of field in accordance with rules pertaining<br />
to the usual pregame toss. The captain of the visiting<br />
team will call the toss prior to the coin being flipped.<br />
3. Following a three-minute intermission after the end of the<br />
regulation game, play will be continued in 15-minute periods<br />
or until there is a score*. There is a two-minute intermission<br />
between subsequent periods. The teams change goals at the<br />
start of each period. Each team has three timeouts per half<br />
and all general timing provisions apply as during a regular<br />
game. Disqualified players are not allowed to return.<br />
*Exception: In preseason and regular-season games there<br />
shall be a maximum of 15 minutes of sudden death with<br />
two timeouts instead of three. General provisions that<br />
apply for the fourth quarter will prevail. Try not attempted if<br />
touchdown scored.<br />
FINAL TWO MINUTES, EACH HALF<br />
1. On kickoff, clock does not start until the ball has been legally<br />
touched by player of either team in the field of play. (In all<br />
other cases, clock starts with kickoff.)<br />
2. A team cannot buy an excess timeout for a penalty. However,<br />
a fourth timeout is allowed without penalty for an injured<br />
player, who must be removed immediately. A fifth timeout or<br />
more is allowed for an injury and a 5-yard penalty is assessed<br />
if the clock was running. Additionally, if the clock was running<br />
and the score is tied or the team in possession is losing, the<br />
ball cannot be put in play for at least 10 seconds on the fourth<br />
or more time out. The half or game can end while those 10<br />
seconds are run off on the clock.<br />
3. If the defensive team is behind in the score and <strong>com</strong>mits a<br />
foul when it has no timeouts left in the final 40 seconds of<br />
either half, the offensive team can decline the penalty for the<br />
foul and have the time on the clock expire.<br />
4. Fouls that occur in the last five minutes of the fourth quarter<br />
as well as the last two minutes of the first half will result in<br />
the clock starting on the snap.<br />
