For the most part, I don't understand spikes in most situations. Have 2 plays called or some very simple ways to call some quick plays, and you can add maybe 3-5 seconds and get an actual play off, instead of the spike.

Spiking gives the QBs time to read the defense. I'd rather be down a down with Tom Brady getting WRs into favorable matchups than quickly running a canned two minute play if at all possible.
