Sweet Lou, Don James, Lenny Wilkins, Pete Carroll ... I love those mother fuckers. I wouldn't suck their dick or anything ... but I love the bastards.
I also liked Ground Chuck ... didn't love him ... liked him.
Holmgren ... can diaff for all I care.
Dude took the Seahawks to the Super Bowel.I hate Holmgren. He was an overrated coach who rode Favre and the worst division in the NFL to success. Green Bay in the mid 90's were like the Seahawks now. Ron Wolf the gm is going into the Hall of Fame for a reason. Any coach would have won there. Holmgren was a total dipshit when he ran the personnel side in Seattle and Cleveland.
If we are talking about greatest coaches can we refrain from including baseball "managers" who really don't do shit and have the least influence on outcomes compared to other sports.
Mike Holmgren had two first round draft picks one year for Cleveland and took Trent Richardson and Bradon Weedon, nuff said.

Koren Robinson, Jerramy Stevens, Lamar King, Chris McIntosh, Marcus Tubbs. A bunch of bad 2nd and 3rd round picks too. He did draft Hutchinson, Alexander, and Trufant, but there was a reason he was fired as GM.
99-04 are Holmgren's drafts. They are pretty bad. Ruskell was even worse.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_Seahawks_draft_history
