[QUOTE="Croak, post: 574307, member: 2367"] I like Coach McCarthy, but Coach Holmgren in his time was a better coach than Coach McCarthy is now. There were few coaches who could "reign in" Brett Favre the way Mike Holmgren did. It's my opinion that Brett Favre became great partially because his head Coach kept on him. Then I think of all the men whom Mike Holmgren mentored on his coaching staff who also became excellent coaches. It's like a who's who of head coaches. I think Coach Holmgren erred in deciding he needed more of a challenge than just Head Coaching. Even the great Vince Lombardi said that it was too hard to be GM and Head Coach at the same time. I would like to have seen Mike Holmgren concentrate on Coaching the Packers to another Super Bowl or two, rather than playing two roles. But, as has been mentioned, Mike McCarthy isn't finished yet, so we don't know the whole story. [/QUOTE]
