Or fails to take advantage of surpirse opportuntities.  I know you cannot run surprise plays too often but it seems that back in the day, whne it was fourth and one, and everyone expected a run or sneak, Bart Starr would fake that and throw and over the shoulder to Carrol Dale or Boyd Dowler. Poor clock management. Calling time outs unnecissarily, or making poor referee challenges. Generally seems to lack fire in the belly with players and with TT to insist he acquire, or at least hunt for, specific talent when its needed to get over the top. All that said I prefer MM to Childress.  Wouldn't mind having Payton but they seem fairly equal so far... except for the SB that is.</blockquote>
