Mike Holmgren's final press conference as Seahawks coach was entertaining and it was enlightening, but not particularly revealing. Partly, that's because the past two weeks have been spent examining Holmgren's legacy with the Seahawks and asking about his future.

Holmgren certainly alluded to coming back to football, and at one point said he would be surprised if he never coached again, but he also stated that's because he just doesn't know how he's going to react to not being a coach and whether he can find anything that will fill that void.

All possibilities are open. Even sensitive subjects, such as the personnel of the football team, he steered clear of offering opinions on future decisions.

Hugh Millen asked Holmgren what personnel changes he would push for if he were returning as the head coach.

Holmgren: "Well, Hugh, that's the biggest hypothetical questions I've ever heard. Yes, I would. There would be areas, absolutely there would be areas, but I've done that every season that I've been coaching here. Now what those areas are, I'm not going to tell you. But you can ask Jim that question in a couple weeks."

OK. Well, how about the five seasons since Holmgren lost the general manager's responsibilities after the 2002 season?

Holmgren: "Once you've had a little taste of the fine wine, it's hard to get the ones where you screw off the cap, you know? But I don't think I'm the Lone Ranger in that thing."

Holmgren stiff-armed the question about which decisions about the team's makeup that he disagreed with.

Holmgren: "I'm not going to even go there. I think I'm right all the time. At least that's what Kathy tells me. This is a great place with great people who care, working here, so I wish them well next year."

In the week before the Seahawks played at St. Louis, Holmgren told Rams reporters there was a 99 percent chance he would hop back into coaching. ESPN.com's Mike Sando asked Holmgren if he had a sense of how that percentage might stand now moving forward?

Holmgren: "You know what, I don't know. That's part of the adventure of this thing. I think I may have said that, you know, when you're going through a season like we just went through, it attacks your competitive juices. I wasn't used to it. I didn't like it. Didn't like the feeling. So you want to just go, 'Give me another crack at it.' As soon as I calm down a little bit and kind of settle down a little bit, I am looking forward to this time. I need this time, and in fairness to Kathy and my family, certainly they deserve this time. So that's what we're doing."
