Who is Next?

Please not Cowher, or for that matter, any other "big name" coach.

Cowher is retired for a reason, he wants a break. Sure he could be lured by big $, but it that the type of motivation we want? that's been the problem w/players & coaches here, they come for the $. Joe was an exception, he wanted the challenge.

Cowher has already won a super bowl. We need a guy that has something to prove & wants to build a team & reputation. Some of the pieces are in place, so hire GW.

Although it's eerily similar to Pettibon's hiring in 93, GW has been a head coach before and now he's matured under Gibbs. Hire GW w/the condition that Al remain as OC, just as Jones did w/Garrett in dallas.

Pretty much sums up my thoughts.

I thought about the Pettibon/Williams comparison when I first heard about Gibbs' retirement. But, if Williams becomes the head coach, he will be walking into a very different situation. This team has a lot of talent and much of it is young. This team also may have a franchise QB. Pettibon inherited an aging team without a young, franchise QB at the helm.
