At the VERY LEAST a QB has to be under pressure for grounding to be called.
IT'S
IN
THE
RULEBOOK |
Per item 3:
"player under center is permitted to stop the game clock legally to save time"
If the clock isn't running, then therefore the player is not legally stopping the clock to save time; e.g. intentional grounding is the correct call.
