So can you call for a timeout if the headphone goes out right before the snap, or if there is "static interference" as is sometimes alleged in some NFL stadia?

I'll leave now.

I am not a fan of either the headphones or the no-huddle. Football is a game about teamwork and let the players play. Now we have teams stealing signs and a someone will eventually figure out how to hack into a headset calls.

When I played the OC would give the QB a few plays to be called in the huddle or substitute players would run into the huddle with the next play. As a former offensive guard that's how I got on the field was running in a play to the huddle. That's how a lot of players would get on the field for both offense and defense. In our offense, the QB would call the formation and the series, then he would audible which hole we were running or option that turned into a passing play. Many times our QB would say, F&%K that play here is what we are running. This non-sense of having the coaches control everything is ridiculous. You look at great teams like the Dallas Cowboys when Troy Ailman was QB I am sure there were many dozens of plays he checked out of at the line of scrimmage and called his own play. Let the kids play football! That's how they grow and learn.
