<![CDATA[If Holmgren Paid Attention........]]>...he would have seen that the Stadium was was half full against the Raiders, but half full of fans that braved the elements to watch their beloved team play their hearts out. For us? i hope so. But certainly for their coach. If Holmgren doesn't see that , then he certainly doesn't understand the importance of Paul Brown's guys rallying under Blanton Collier.

i heard Holmgren's comments about everyone being on the same page. i hope he doesn't expect the Head Coach to bend over and be his bitch. It's OK to have a leader on the field as well as one in the Owner's Box. They need to work this out.

Good point Steve, perhaps he will keep Mangini around for another year.

I agree with you completely. I like that he says he doesn't want to micromanage. Usually people who DO micromanage don't even understand or use the word. The fact that he did use it, gives me hope.
