FWIW, and probably not much - I've talked to a couple of defensive players and so far they would all want Wade Phillips as the guy.

Well, <cough> Raheem Morris <cough> certainly not a ringing endorsement of anyone currently on the staff

Probably spoke to Bowen & Hatcher.

Any update on how this interview went?

I really hope we don't. I think he is too old at this point to even be considered a stop gap.

[Lotus]

It's difficult to believe that LeBeau would quit his job with Pitt just so he can coach the "Raiders of the East."

Exactly what we need. An 80 year old defensive coordinator.

I really find this situation strange. Are the steelers seriously blaming lebeau for the defense over the fo inability to replace that aging defense? Just a year ago Todd Haley was almost fired and now is extended and lebeau looks to be forced out.

That front office has done an extremely poor job in the draft and free agency on the that defense. Only the Harrison move has really paid off the last couple years.

Dick Lebeau resigned. He was not fired.
Will Dick LeBeau be the first person to make the NFL Hall of Fame as both a player and coach? His credentials are untouchable. Credited for inventing the zone blitz.

Yeah, the "mutual parting" language makes it sound like the Steelers are moving on and it wasn't a true "resignation."

Maybe he will come here.

[That Guy]

i dunno, you can't argue his resume, but 77 is REALLY old.

Like someone posted earlier look at his previous and recent track record. Hous' D under Phillip was a monster. WP as a head coach not so good; WP the D-Coordinator very good, to say the least.
