Best Available Coaching Job?

[irish]

The steelers is easily the best job for all the reasons schneed said. That coach will be inheriting a team only 1 season removed from winning a super bowl will almost all of the key elements of that title intact. Also the steelers are without a doubt the most stabil organization in the NFL. They hire a coach and stick with him. Remember a few years ago when Cowher's team was down and most wanted him fired, the steelers stuck with him and good things happened. Imagine if the Skins did that (I'm not sure anyone has that vivid an imagination).

More teams should try letting a coach do his job for more than 2-3 seasons. That's one of the reasons I'm all for letting Gibbs do his 5 years and even more if he wants to. Organizational consistency is very underrated in this league.

I agree about letting Gibbs do his thing for as long as he wants but I think the issue with Gibbs is his age. Cowher has been with the Steelers for something like 15 years and it took him 14 of those to get the championship. I think Gibbs has 5 years at most left in him as head coach and I just dont see that as being enough time to get an organization as screwed up as the redskins back to something that resembles the steelers.
