TPS Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 You gotta wonder if sitting out for a decade has made cowher a dinosaur. I would have no faith that he could be a good coach after a 10-yr hiatus. Game may have passed him by.hiring a couple of good coordinators takes care of it.

transient Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 You gotta wonder if sitting out for a decade has made cowher a dinosaur. I would have no faith that he could be a good coach after a 10-yr hiatus. Game may have passed him by. Except that Cowher's blueprint is still in place in Pittsburgh, and still effective. The concern would be how much have players changed since he last coached and can he relate to them, not how much has the game changed since then, IMO.

Silvercrw Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Remember, I informed everyone about the Bledsoe trade long before it happened, The Terell Owens signing and the original Bill Cowher visit. I am not saying he is being interviewed but that his name was being mentioned. Is he interested in coaching again? We do not know. Go bills!

Go bills!i think he could be considered for a role similar to what they are considering Coughlin for. Not HC. Call it a czar if you will but would have a real title.

So when you say mentioned, do you mean at OBD in a serious conversation between the Pegulas, Whaley and Monos. Cowher spent a lot of time trashing Rex on air this year and loves Whaley. If that's the context -- I can see a mention but not really a serious interest in coaching or President of the Bills. By the way, the love of Whaley comes from a conversation with him at the Lassiter Mill Starbucks in Raleigh about 3 years ago where the barrista and I (two Bills fans) were talking about the team when he came in and joined our conversation. Helluva nice guy. We both said -- just coach us please-- he laughed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvercrw Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Yes, Cowher and Whaley both have their ties to Pittsburgh. To answer your question yes it was a serous conversation however they have tried to lure Bill into coaching before. Not sure if he is interested in coaching but it would be great if he would be go bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I talked to the Steelers people that I know over the weekend and they said they wouldn't consider him at this point (and they obviously love him). For one, they think that he has NO interest in coaching again. For 2 they said that the game is so different now they are not sure that his general philosophy will hold up. They clearly think that he is a good leader and a guy that can stabilize things but said that he may be better in some sort of consultant role at this point. The time and effort to coach an NFL team doesn't sound like something that he wants (and these people know him very, very well). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really newsworthy...Cowher and Gruden have been mentioned every off-season for close to 10 years now...these guys are not going back to 16 hour workdays and dealing with being a HC...they have great jobs and don't have to work very hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dpberr Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I think George Seifert was spotted at the airport Not yet. Just had lunch with him yesterday. He's tired of hanging out at the same airport. If you want Seifert, you have to go to him now. We should see what Barry Switzer is up to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
