[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 937525, member: 7261"] I will admit, his seemingly wasting timeouts due to running the play clock down to zero, use to bug the snot out of me. But your last statement finally seeped into my brain and the timeouts don't bother me (much). :) Like you and others have pointed out, Rodgers is one of the best at clock management in the final few minutes of a game. He has proven time and again that he doesn't need a lot of time or timeouts, to score. I actually watched the 2009 NFC Wild Card Playoffs between the Packers & Cardinals the other night. Rodgers second season as a starter. He has really improved his clock management since then. The Packers were down 38-45 with 4:45 on the clock and at their own 30. Instead of milking all he could out of the clock and the Cardinal timeouts, the Packers scored a TD with 1:52 left on the clock and the Cardinals having all 3 timeouts. That gave the Cardinals way too much and they marched straight down the field and with 14 seconds on the clock, had just a 34 yarder to win it. Fortunately, Neil Rackers missed the chip shot, but the Packers ended up losing in OT when Rodgers fumble was returned for a TD. I also think Rodgers and MLF are a much better combination for clock management than McCarthy and Rodgers were. [MEDIA=youtube]IMhGuBvyp5E[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
