Is Anyone Concerned About Cowher.....

anyone worrying over a coach we don't have should find new hobbies.

Certainly, anyone thinking that buying a former Super Bowl winning coach guarantees anything should seriously reconsider that.

And for the record, Seifert inherited an offense. Nothing more. It was his defense. Then won a 2nd championship. And never went 8-8 there. By some of your expectations, he was a better choice than Cowher is now. No one knows what Cowher would actually do here, so it's hard to suggest that it matters three games into a season he's not coaching.

No, big difference. Bill Cowher built his team that won the super bowl. Siefert won with Walshs team that was loaded with super bowl talent when he took over.

16 years. It took 16 years for Cowher to win a Super Bowl.

I think that the people hoping for Cowher to come here are expecting instant wins when/if he does, and that is just stupid.

I have said it before. If your only reason for not wanting Cowher is because it took him 15 years to win the SB. It took Tom Landry 12 years to win one. If Jerry Jones hadn't paid off O'Donnell to throw two wide open interceptions, Cowher would have won one in his 6th season. Just admit you don't like Cowher and that is the reason you don't want him here. Personally I don't care, I would rather have a new coach over a retread.

How many has John Fox won? You think he'll win one in less than 14 years? You people act like super bowl winning coaches grow on trees.

Well, the bright side, we have a DE that we gave up a #1 draft pick for that seems to me to be far better suited as a stand-up LB in the 3-4.

To be quite honest, I'm more worried about Fox. Hopefully, he'll figure out a way to win a few games so that we don't help build the 49ers house for the next several years.

Cowher won't become Seifert 2 because he won't coach here. Still, if you like the idea, here are the stats of the two coaches before Carolina.

Seifert: 98-30 (.766) with two superbowl wins in 8 seasons in SF. Overall playoff record: 10-5 (made playoffs 7 times in 8 seasons)

Cowher: 149-90-1 (.623) with one superbowl win in 15 seasons in Pittsburgh. Overall playoff record: 12-9 (made playoffs 10 times in 15 seasons)

You may now proceed to make excuses for Cowher, I know some of you are dieing to.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
