In the first half I see a few crucial plays that could have been avoided.1) On the 31 yard Viking TD pass the Vikings hurried to the line and our D was scrambling and not ready. It looked like a Rodgers special catching the D unprepared. What better a spot to use our first timeout.2) On the 4th and 3 MLF should have kicked another FG. That is why you have McManus. You are on the road against a great defense. 7-6 means at worse you are down 1 score at halftime. And even if you go for it use a timeout. Get set. The offense scrambled to the line unsure and the game clock was winding. That leads to bad passes and drops.3) With just around 2 minutes left with 3rd and less than one we get a penalty for not being set. Again we hurried to the line. Use one of your 3 timeouts. Get set and get the first down. We punt and it becomes 13-3.We take one timeout to the locker room and use 2 to foolishly ice the kicker in the FIRST half. I see this as a weakness in MLF's coaching ability. And unless your team is loaded with Pro Bowlers you will lose these kind of games to good teams. Rodgers definitely would have called a TO for the offense as we historically know.</blockquote>
