Cowher looking to return to sidelines again

I think Cower likes to fug with the Panthers. Seems like every time after we make a coaching decision he comes out with this "well I don't know maybe someday"

He has been gone since 2006. He might be great but then again how many guys who left coaching for years came back and did well again. I can think of Gibbs with the Redskins but he didn't do all that well. Dick Vermeil did well with St Louis, but it is pretty rare for guys to come back after extended absences so the number is pretty small

What is the argument against Cowher anyway outside of been away too long? The dude is a Hall of Fame coach and he's been in the booth analyzing. It's not like he went into a coma.

Hall of fame coach? Did I miss something?

Cowher's 55 now, so I'm sure senility has kicked in and he's forgotten how to coach. And I'm sure he hasn't been keeping up with the game either.

"Cowher, though, sees this as a "non-issue," citing that he's still on top of his game just by serving a CBS studio analyst.

"I did it for 27 years. You don't just forget things overnight," Cowher said. "One thing about this job is it's been really good, because it allows me to study the game and do features on the game. I want to know what I'm talking about, so I'm watching tape. It's not like I'm out of it. I know how the game is changing." http://www.usatoday.com/story/gameon/2013/01/08/bill-cowher-interested-in-nfl-coaching-return/1819343/

    • I think the last time I watched the Pro Bowl was that year Sean Taylor blew up that poor punter. LOL
    • I don’t go back and look at the espn but there live it definitely said 1 shot 1 goal when it happened. I guess they had not added them yet. Still allowing goals that early is rough. Blue line is a total disaster still. Even with Slavin back. Miller and Nikishin keep making mistakes after mistakes. 
    • I generally disagree with the concept of picking a position because of value early in the draft. For instance, if there's a really good safety, RB or ILB at pick 10, I'm choosing him over a project WR or DE. Better players make the team better. A bunch of ok players will give you an ok team. The number 1 goal of the draft should be to improve the overall talent on the team. Not to fill positions of need.  Deciding beforehand that you're picking a LT in the first or second round because Ickey went down is not the way to improve the team. Now if Dan has similar grades on 2 or 3 players and one happens to be a LT, then yeah go for it. But don't pass on your guy at ILB because you have a gap at LT or need to improve the pass rush with a DE. When those guys don't pan out then you haven't improved your team. But that LB could have been a franchise cornerstone for years to come. See Luke Kuechly and Christian McCaffrey.
