Gothamite Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Any on-field personnel can call a time-out. Only the head coach can call it from the sidelines.Captains discussions with referees usually pertain to accepting or declining penalties, or explanations of certain calls. It's not as structured as hockey is, but the protocol still exists.The uniform designation can't really be all that important, or the patches wouldn't be optional.

WSU151 Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Are all starting quarterbacks captains? I don't think I've ever seen an NFL referee ask a running back, wide receiver, or offensive lineman if he wants to accept or decline a penalty. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdAstraKC Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I honestly didn't realize my Chiefs don't use the captain patch. I'm glad they don't. I agree with some others here that they shouldn't have to use the over-sized C patch with stars. I think we'd all agree that the patches would look better if designed to be a part of each uniform.

TxRangersFan Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 While the Cowboys do not currently wear the "C" on their jerseys, it appears they did wear them in 1983. I think this was the ONLY year, they certainly didn't wear them in 1982 or 1984 (that year they wore their 25th Anniversary patch instead).1983:1984: May God bless you all and fill your hearts with faith, hope, and love!

sportsfan0518 Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 It is from 2008 but the Jets at one time did have the captain logo. This is Leon Washington with it: http://cdn.everyjoe.com/files/2009/06/leon-washington-jets-20081214_zaf_e47_428.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
