Re: Will Bill Cowher be fired??
....Saw a special on both coaches last night.
Cowher does not LEAD his team.....he looks to his players for leadership when things get tough. There's more to this game than puffing up your chest........

Re: Will Bill Cowher be fired??
I doubt it very much. The Steelers run by the Rooneys stick with their coaches. Also, if you fire him, you better have someone in mind that you think can do a better job.
Who's out there? No one that you could bank on. Last point. Is there really a lot of shame in losing to Belicheck? No one else can beat him.

Re: Will Bill Cowher be fired??
No shame at all T.......
...and I like Cowher, too. Seems like a decent guy and a tought nut. I have a very good friend who's been a Steeler season ticket holder for the last 20 years.... He says that the natives are getting restless down there because of his inability to beat premier teams in games that matter.....Evidently the buzz (according to my friend) is that the prevelent view is that there is a bigger problem with the Steelers with coaching than with on the field talent.

Re: Will Bill Cowher be fired??
What was their record this year??
Major problem with the steelers today is rookie qb played poorly and secondary is a little suspect. No shame in a rook struggling a bit after a good yr. Probably could add some db help and could be sb favorites next yr.

Re: Will Bill Cowher be fired??
Let's think about the starting QB's he's had to work with during his tenure in Pittsburgh. Neil O'Donnell, Mike Tomczak, Kordell Stewart, and Tommy Maddox. All servicable, but...c'mon, that's one heck of a job he's done without a Super Bowl calibre QB.
Of course, now he's got player control, Rothli-something is his accountability. But even with turning the ball over too much, they woulda run all over the Eagles (IMO). Sucks to be in the same conference as New England. Give some Super Bowl winning coaches the teams Cowher has had in Pittsburgh (say a Mike Holmgren), and they don't come close to his record. Give Cowher a Farve or Elway to manage those solid playoff teams he's had, and he's got 3 rings or so by now - even if he's not the game's best tactician.
