[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 706900, member: 12283"] That is a good insight into why the two eras are looked at so differently. Essentially you're saying it comes down to expectations. They were low when Wolf took over and he completely exceeded them. By the time Thompson took over, the sustained success had caused the expectations to rise. But I would push back on that a little bit. While I think Thompson is far from perfect as a GM, I think those expectations are a little unfair. He has still done the work to maintain the same quality of team that Wolf did. Essentially, Wolf had one bad year and then found an all time great QB and never looked back. Thompson has done virtually the same. And let's be cautious about casting the situation as though TT inherited his team that won the Super Bowl. How many of those players did he actually inherit from Wolf? Donald Driver, Chad Clifton, and...? By the time they won that ring, the team was almost completely stocked with TT players. [/QUOTE]
