[QUOTE="Bagadeez04, post: 451757, member: 2104"] I have to admit, I always thought the [URL='http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d82a54207/article/bob-harlan-regrets-naming-sherman-as-packers-gm-']big downfall[/URL] of the Coach and GM roles being e man's hands were that that man would always be looking to win the big one "this year" ([URL='http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/7118158/oakland-raiders-acquire-carson-palmer-cincinnati-bengals']Hue Jackson's one year power trip for example[/URL]) and would ignore the "big picture" or the needs of the team five years down the road. I continue to believe this is a big reason why the idea of a coach/GM is a bad one, but hadn't thought that dealing with player holdouts and other off the field issues might carry over to coaching duties. [CENTER][FONT=impact]"(He) did a great job of coaching. But it got to the point when we started having problems with players that he almost seemed to be ignoring the team."Harlan pointed to the long, contentious holdout of cornerback Mike McKenzie in 2004 as a breaking point.
