Time Management is Important
An important aspect of American football is time management and your ability to control the amount of time you have possession of the ball, this can often be the difference between winning or losing a game. In most circumstances, if you feel there is an opportunity to score a touchdown and get 6 points, you should go for it. If however it is late in the game, and you have a comfortable lead there is no need to take unnecessary risks that could result in turning the ball over, it then becomes more beneficial for you to maintain possession of the ball and run out the clock by calling shorter passing plays with runs. Basically, keeping the ball out of the opposing team's hands will give them fewer opportunities to score.
