Re: Bill Cowher
 

a very good morning to you dmek25.

i disagree with you about GW. I think he will be a very good HC once Gibbs steps down. He does need a very strong supporting cast and I think with what we have in place now he can be very successful. IMO Turners biggest problem was player dicipline, and that seems to be one of GW's strong points.

Re: Bill Cowher
 

Gibbs isn't retiring without a ring, I also doubt that if he gets one this year he retires, but that is the only way other than health reasons he retires.

Re: Bill Cowher
 

Never gonna happen. Cowher may leave Pgh but it will be for his retirement home in NC. His daughter is enrolled in high school there so thats where he's going.

Re: Bill Cowher
 

I hate rumors. I think we are set with coaches.There are probably 3 or 4 coaches on the skins staff that could be head coaches. Cowher isnt needed here

Re: Bill Cowher
 

They win despite Bill Cowher in my opinion. He is a classic get you close coach. There is a reason all the assistants on that team are head coach candidates. They are the reason that team won last year. I don't think Cowher is a "great" coach. I think he is a good organizer and motivator. I think Pitt has great scouts and a good front office. I think Cowher could use a little upgrade in terms of Xs and Os. I'd take Williams or Saunders at this point. Especially for continuity.

Re: Bill Cowher
 

whoever came up with that rumor is an idiot. cowher wants to coach the panthers, not the redskins. gibbs won't be going back that soon (he doesn't have that big of a workload now), and we've already got 2 other head coaches on staff.

Yeah, this rumor doesn't even make sense - at all.

Re: Bill Cowher
 

The next coach of our team will come from inside. More than likely Williams. Saunders is a possibility. but it basically comes down to those two. I dont think anyone else would even be discussed.

I totally agree, Cowher is an overrated coach. He had some great teams in Pgh and only got it done once. In a big game Cowher is not the coach I'd want.

Re: Bill Cowher
 

Also, Cowher may go to college. Rumor in the Carolinas has him coaching NC State after Chuck Amatta gets fired after this season. I live in Charlotte, so it was all over the sports station yesterday evening. Dont know if its true, but he lives down here, his children and going to NC State, so it is definately possible.

dude, are we going to change that name of yours before 9/11? :)

Re: Bill Cowher
 

Not so interested if an outside guy steps in to the role of head coach but how many of our assistants will leave with Gibbs (in 2008)?
