We didn't have a deep run, but I feel like since he got us there, we'll be stuck with him for at least another year. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they might dump him this off-season still, but it seems unlikely.
I don't want Holmgren for the same reason I didn't/don't want Favre. If we get either of them and then do well or God forbid, win a Super Bowl, we'll never hear the end of it from the fuckin' Packer fans. Longwell & Sharper are more than enough former Packers on our squad right now. (If you've never traveled up north here, that Vikes/Packers rivalry runs very deep. In fact, when I was in college in Wisconsin near the MN border, there would literally be brawls after the games.) We hate the Packer fans and they hate us. Depending on what part of Wisconsin someone's from, they may hate the Bears fans equally, but rest assured everyone in MN hates the Packers more than the Bears or the Lions.
I agree that Cower seems content in retirement.
Shanahan would be a great option.
