The QB shouldn't have to direct his formation--they've been running some plays since training camp, and any new plays put in the rotation for any particular game should be worked on ad nauseum in the week's practice. He shouldn't have to direct his formation even when he audibles. Having to direct linemen and receivers after breaking the huddle is a sign of poor coaching. And wasting TOs is as much a part of clock management as getting the play set.
