Bill Cowher Is Overrated


Guest RT81

Recommended Posts

I still don't get why so many people want this overrated pos as our head coach.It took him 15 years to finally win a superbowl and mostly that win was cause of the refs screwing seattle with bad call after bad call in that game.

John Fox is a great coach and I'm happy with the job he done and he lead us to a superbowl title and more after that.Just be patient guys Fox knows what he doing and is alot smarter than all you haters who want bill cowher.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that Bill Cowher is not an "overrated pos".

In Cowher’s 15 seasons, the Steelers captured eight division titles, earned ten postseason playoff berths, played in 21 playoff games, advanced to six AFC Championship games and made two Super Bowl appearances [winning one]. He is one of only six coaches in NFL history to claim at least seven division titles. At the conclusion of the 2005 season, the Pittsburgh Steelers had the best record of any team in the National Football League since Cowher was hired as head coach.

I am a fan of Cowher, but I do admit that he is a little overrated.

While I think that he is a really good coach, he is not HOF worthy, as some fans would have you believe.

Tomlin is proof that Pitt has a very good "system" in place.

A "system" that JR is trying to emulate. Panther football and Fox's brand of football survives the fad's and wins football games when the right personnel are in place. Just like in Pittsburgh. I can't think of a better organization to copy.

When did this happen? :rolleyes:

I meant fox will lead us to a superbowl title and I said in another thread already that this is our year baby.

I'd def. rather have Fox than Cowher. Cowher did what he did because of Lebeau. I will interested to see how Cowher does once he starts coaching again.

I agree 100% lebeau was the reason for pittsburgh success not cowher hell pitt just won another sb without him so that shows you how imporant bill was to the system.

    • Yeah this needs to happen ASAP. I don’t care if the price is lower. These Vikings fans on Twitter are absolutely insufferable. Acting like they have been world beaters for the last 60 years and thinking Carolina should just hand him over for nothing. We’ve had 7 or so tough seasons in a row and we have still been to two superbowls since they have and won more playoff games since 1995.    I hope Dan sends him to Detroit for a 2040 7th rounder and eats half the contract. Even Sheena is replying to them.
    • I hope your cath went well
    • So did the Panthers initiate this by making him "available for the right price" or was this something Thielen himself pushed for? I also never saw this quote he made about JJ McCarthy back in June. https://sports.yahoo.com/article/panthers-adam-thielen-both-asked-182711572.html Thielen believes McCarthy is built for big moments and will eventually show the world the skillset that won the Michigan Wolverines a national championship in 2023/2024. He even said McCarthy could be the “face of the league.” “I have high expectations for him. I've been able to be around a little bit through some of the time last summer... back in Minnesota, and I think he has the ability to be one of the great quarterbacks this season and the face of this league at some point. You know, I think he's got every tool and intangible that you can have,” Thielen said. “Obviously, it's a difficult league and it's not gonna just be easy, but I think he has the ability to handle adversity to be able to be big in big moments, as you saw when he was in college. I think he's got a great support staff around him, whether it be the coaches or the trainers.” Sounds like he's had one foot out the door for some time now.
