Holmgren Gets More Definite On Plans

Jul 9, 2014 5:06 AM

Outgoing Seahawks' coach Mike Holmgren stated Wednesday, in his strongest terms yet, that he plans to take the 2009 season off and then determine whether he will return to the NFL in 2010. "You can't stop anyone from saying or writing -- as you well know -- anything they want to write or say," Holmgren said. "I'm telling you what I'm going to do. I'm going to take some time off and not think about this for a while. "That way if ever I get a chance to make another decision, perhaps, at least I will have given it a suitable time of rest and clearing my mind so you can attempt to make a decent decision. And that's what I'm going to do."
