Both Rodgers and MM are being accused of poor clock and timeout management in the Vikings game.  I tend to agree that Rodgers needs to get better at not putting himself in a position to have to burn timeouts just to save 5 yards and McCarthy needs to make sure he has at least one timeout and challenge in his pocket for a possible game deciding challenge.</blockquote>
