I wonder if the Giants might make a run at Cowher.

That has been the thought for years.

Cowher's name comes up every year. But anyone who has been out of coaching for 9 years has decided to not coach. I don't think he wants to go back to grind after this long, when he can make easy money being a talking head on TV.

Morocco probably told him he was a fucking idiot trading three 1st rounders and a 2nd for RGIII. :laughing2

Hats off to Coughlin, he had a hell of a run in NY.

Yup. He had quite the unique career with the Giants, I was amazed to find out how few times the Giants made the playoffs with him at the helm. But the times he did make the playoffs he definitely made the most of the opportunity. Idk if he's a HOFer but gotta give him plenty of credit for the 2 SB wins.

To be fair, they needed a change. Andy did well getting that team all those nfc east titles but it clearly crumbled and he needed a change as did they.

I would say the same thing happened in Denver with shanahan.

And New Orleans with Payton.

And the New York with Coughlin.

True, happens to many quality coaches. The poster child is probably parcells.

..........no doubt

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

Disagree a little bit.

The Steelers have only had 3 coaches in my lifetime.

Chuck Noll
Bill Cowher
Mike Tomlin

All three have won Super Bowls. All three have been through down seasons.

I do think it is time for TC to go. Andy Reid should have never been fired (I was extremely happy when he left the NFC E). Parcells is a different category to me....he didn't have enough patience.

The organization the most patience also has the most Super Bowl wins. This is what is the most overlooked story in today's drama driven world.

Re: Coach Changes: Firings/Hirings
 

So Chuck Pagano is being retained in Indy; surprising many people in the sports media (and fans too). I'll be curious to see what they do in regards to their FO; I feel that a lot of their issues had to do with personnel.

They need a better o-line, a running game, and help on defense.
