If you sub late, the defense gets time to also substitute. The offense will be stopped from snapping while the defense matches up. If the clock runs out, tough shit.

Sloppy and dumb. 5 yards for a timeout gambit.

Only a McCartby-coached team could piss away all that time AND get a delay of game because they are trying to use a gimmick to force the defense to call time out.

That’s a bullshit delay of game. The red stopped them from snapping it.
When the offense swaps out personnel late, defense gets a chance to do the same. Rule was put in to eliminate cheap too many men penalties.

This just incentivizes the defense to take forever to sub. It's dumb

I don’t understand what happened on the fake punt from that camera angle. The Niners didn’t rush the punt as if they knew it was coming, yet the gunner was wide open?

The guy lined up opposite the gunner was preoccupied with getting downfield to block on the return. He left the gunner uncovered right when a fake punt was likely.
