looks like he is ready to take the reigns from brad childress as the next terrible coach that holds back a talented team. This first half vs atl has been a disgrace. Obviously the non challenge that resulted in 7 pts for atl was horrible, but his clock management was porous as well. At the end of the first quarter, he rushed the kicker out on 4th and 1 to kick a fg with 12 secs left. He should have spent that 12 secs trying to draw atl offsides, and then kick the fg to start the 2nd quarter. Then, with atl on the goaline and 2 timeouts left, he lets the falcons run the clock all the way down on 2 runs without using a time out. His qb is aaron rodgers, he should have used both and forced the falcons to run on 3rd down or risk giving the ball back to rodgers with about 40 secs left. I tend to be critical of payton's clock management but this is a new level of poor. Good thing we didn't end up with this bum. Thanks Ted Thompson.
