Amen Mattyk,my bet is still Gruden.

I think Gruden is up there with Cowher as far as longshots go.

Smart money is on Shanahan, everyone in the know agrees a deal with him is basically in place and ready to go.

I look forward to next Monday! It will be like late Christmas. I hope we like Snyder's "gift."

Bill Cowher is going to be the next head coach of the Giants. So says someone fairly close to Cowher: Former Steelers running back Jerome Bettis.

"I believe he’s going to be with the Giants,'' Bettis said Thursday on Sirius XM's Mad Dog Radio. "I think that’s the team that he really coveted. This is where he always wanted to be. The Mara family, he’s been very close to them. He’s known them very well and was on the inside track, before the Giants won the Super Bowl, for that job and I think he’s holding out for that opportunity if it presents itself.''

Asked what would have happened if the Giants in 2007 didn’t make their Super Bowl run under Tom Coughlin, Bettis said Cowher would have moved into the picture.

"He would have definitely gotten the job and if Coughlin doesn’t get that team back in the right direction next year I think they’ll pull the plug,'' Bettis said.

Cowher following the 2006 season left the Steelers and the coaching profession and currently works as a CBS studio analyst. He's been linked to several head coaching jobs -- Carolina is always mentioned -- and has steadfastly declared he may never get back in.

If he does, the Giants already have one ingredient Bettis knows is a prerequisite: Eli Manning.

"That’s where he’s got his eyes,'' Bettis said of the Giants. "Let me tell you the one thing I do know. I do know, because he told me, he doesn’t want to go anywhere that doesn’t have an established quarterback. He said he’s tired of doing the 'let me find a quarterback' thing because in Pittsburgh he never had a quarterback until [Ben] Roethlisberger and then he was like, ‘Hey, I’m ready to go. I finally got a quarterback.’ That’s not what he’s going to do again. He’s going to have an established quarterback wherever he goes.''

this is what i've been prediciting for a while (tooting my own horn - ok, done now).

cowher makes perfect sense for new york. if he's content to wait for coughlin to retire or get fired, more power to him. the longer coughlin stays, the better it will be for us.

I can't see the Giants running a 3-4 defense under Cowher

Really? The guy who's 9-3 against us as Giants head coach?

EVERYONE in our division has beaten up on us over the past 6 years. we've been a pretty bad team for a while if you hadnt noticed. Cowher's a better coach than coughlin (career record) and coughlin doesnt have much left in the tank anyways. our best bet is for coughlin to stay a couple years, cowher to grow impatient, and sign somewhere else. then, when coughlin finally retires, there will be atleast one less elite candidate available to take over the job.

Well now when we beat the Giants we can laugh as Cowher gets made and spits in the face of his players while yelling at them.

if and when Shanahan wins his first playoff game in over a decade, i might feel like laughing. until then, we don't have a leg to stand on.

..???,have you ever seen Ton Coughlin on the sideline?

[Redskin301]

I don't think he'll coach in 2010 he's waiting for the NC job
