And you could see it coming. I try not to belabor it. We managed to lay an egg in the 2004 playoff against the Vikings after beating them twice in the regular season. But we were in cap trouble due to some contracts for players who turned out to be a bust.  Thompson took over the GM spot and I still get angry that he let guards, Marco Rivera and Mike Wahle, walk. He replaced them with 2 absolute stiffs. And as a result Favre was battling a constant pass rush and our backs became decimated, including Ahman Green, from getting hit in the backfield. I was hopeful TT could have kept one of them. But no. The first game of the season we scored 3 points in Detroit, which was a bad team. I recall I saw us play the Steelers with Charlie Batch at QB for Pitt! We picked off a pass and were at their 5 yard line! They stuffed Samkon Gado with our silly putty blocking. Then Favre is blitzed and they get a strip sack for a TD. Horrific! Sherman got axed after 4 straight playoff appearances. In comes MM.</p></blockquote><p></p>
