[QUOTE="Shawnsta3, post: 603241, member: 5065"] The one thing Thompson had going for him that Wolf didn't is what he inherited. I'm sure other more experienced members will be able to discuss this topic better than I can, but as I remember Wolf inherited an organization that had one division championship, two playoff births and five winning seasons in the previous twenty four years. That combined with the small market, one could conceivably assume that the present day Packers would not be around; or at least as we currently view them if he had not come and turn things around when he did. While Thompson didn't inherit the prettiest picture either due to some of Sherman's questionable GM duties; he was at least given a team that had reasonable regular season success with a HOF quarterback and a sustainable organizational plan in process. Thompson wouldn't make the Hall of Fame as it currently stands but I see no reason why he couldn't eventually make it if the success under MM and AR continues and he picks up another Lombardi or two on the way.
