[QUOTE="net, post: 16919, member: 200"] Thompson is doing to Sherman what Sherman is doing to the players: earn your job. The Packers had other problems to address before Sherman's contract. Sherman is the coach this year, period. I think the extension will hinge on whether the Packers make the playoffs or not. I think Thompson wants to see if Sherman is bringing the team up...or down...before handing him an extension. Here's something else to consider: Sherman might want to play the contract out so he could find a job with dual responsibility elsewhere. I don't think Jim Bates would have come to Green Bay if the possibility of being the HC wasn't there. He had other good options. But I also think the Packers brought Bates in as a long-term solution to the chronic defensive problems. I think he stays regardless. I think all of you who think Mike Holmgren is coming back are really dreaming. More than one source has told the media Mike torched his bridges when he left and Bob Harlan has a long memory. The other question arises: how many Super Bowls did Holmgren win in Seattle? Check Sherman's record and Holmgren's since Sherman came to Green Bay. Here's another ditty I heard this weekend...Sherman got to 50 wins faster than almost any coach in league history...perhaps the fastest. I heard it on a radio broadcast and missed part of it. He's at least in the top three. I think if he takes the team to the playoffs he will get an extension, if he wants it. I would put my money on Sherman as the coach in 2006. [/QUOTE]
