[QUOTE="Hobbes09, post: 250142, member: 1750"] I think people are too in love with getting rid of the old if they're not best of the best. If it's not Thompson then who? And the new guy who comes in, does he replace the coaching staff? Then if the coaching staff changes we're basically in rebuild mode all over again. Thompson has had some busts, but he's also had an eye for great talent. Yeah, he didn't stack the OL. Well last year the line was considered a problem until it got beaten to hell and back so with it all healed up and ready to go why shouldn't he think it will return to something similar to the 07 line? Fact is Thompson inherited a mess of a team yet managed to get it to the NFC championship game in three years. That's pretty good. Next year the team has a freak season. This year he directly addressed the problems of the year before and, for the most part, people believed he did a great job of it. But suddenly a bad game comes around and we're calling for his head again? Yes he has a losing record. But then most GMs don't have to deal with the problem of needing to completely gut a team their first year then dealing with a waffling hometown legend just when things begin picking up. Sorry, I don't buy it. [/QUOTE]
