The Rooneys have been batting a thousand. First, Chuck Noll and then Bill Cowher. It's really doubtful that his successor will join those two in the Hall.

Maybe they ought to hire a caretaker coach for a year or two and bring back Cowher when he is ready.

his Herm Edwards-like clock mismanagement,

That's why we Patriots fans love ol' Bill!

My understanding is that Cowher wants big bucks when he returns to coaching, and the Steelers simply aren't going to pay that kind of money.

That's right and I can't blame either side, they are doing what they need to do.

I wish Bill well, but I'm afraid he'll find out he left the best job in the world.

I agree with you. Time to put Kitna on my Fantasy Football late round draft list.

"Cowher's next coaching gig will be the Redskins, bank on it."

Good, then we Steeler fans won't have to worry about him hoisting the Lombardi trophy for another franchise.

If anyone knows what I'm talking about, its Pats fans. He is simply incapable of winning a postseason game against Belichek - outcoached every time.

Interesting.

Thee was a time I would have said "no way", Gregg Williams has got that job when it opens up.

But, after the dismal defensive performance this year your prediction has more credibility.

Of course, the offense was also abysmal but they may have made inroads there. The defense is still in shambles.
