That's why.Too many times did Sherman get conservative with a lead, choked in big games with his play calling, or deferred to Tom Rossley to do the play calling, that the Packers were beginning to become a joke! The only reason they made it to the playoffs so many times was because they had ol' #4 running the plays under center, and pulling their collective coaching fat out of the fire--numerous times. You can't deny that Sherman made terrible decisions in big games when everything was on the line. Atlanta, Philadelphia, Minnesota, and the NY Jet games come to mind, and there were others. Sherman was just not a very good game day coach period!His unflinching loyalty to Tom Rossley was another reason for his demise. TT did the right thing. The Packers were never going to get any further with Coach Sherman at the helm. He's the typical coach that looks good, says the right thing, and is a nice guy and all, but just does not have what it takes to win football games when it counts--in the post season..imo.</blockquote>
