..They'll be the coaches in the Senior Bowl won't they? Or did they pass since they have a new coach?

Tennessee and San Fran are the coaches this year.

I think that's the Pro Bowl you're thinking of.

I meant it's the coaches from the top team left out of the playoffs in each conference that coach the Pro Bowl teams, not the Senior Bowl. If I remember correctly that is.

I'm not disputing Tennesse and San Fran staff's coaching the Sr. Bowl, I had seen this too.

AFC Champ loser (Cowher is a regular) = Pro Bowl coach.

Traditionally, the top non-playoff team coaches got to coach the Senior Bowl, while the conference championship loser coaches the Pro-Bowl.

I guess maybe they felt that teh worst teams in each conference (that didn't change staffs) should get the senior bowl game instead.
