The question of GM still remains. There is no evidence that Cowher would be a good GM.

A GM is going to want to hire his own coach, and most likely it will not be an established coach like Cowher. So how does Cowher come here?

Make Marty the GM......I'm know I'm going to receive "negative feedback" for this, but I really think that's the way to go......right now.

But then again, Clark will just sit on his ass and do nothing....so the point is mute.

I like TO OCHO CINCO and Boo's antics. Entertain me, make me forget about life for awhile.

Two years ago I asked a veteran member of New England's Super Bowl defenses whether he ever envisioned Romeo as a head coach. The player, who is black, said absolutely not.

Um, alrighty. Thanks for pointing out the race of a player. Because it matters?

Whitlock is 100% CORRECT when it comes to Bill Cowher coaching the Chiefs NEXT SEASON.

What a change from when Herm was hired and was compared to Tony Dungy at that point.

i hope so .... i'd take him as a replacement for Carl is a heartbeat.

It's amazing how no one saw the decline of the offense coming. Not even Carl Peterson.

There are already rumors that the Browns have interest in the former Pittsburgh head coach who now works on CBS's studio show.
This is the second year of Cowher's "retirement." I don't see it lasting a third season. Kansas City is the ideal location for Cowher to return. The Chiefs have a general manager/president, Carl Peterson, who needs to be removed and a head coach, Herm Edwards, who foolishly jumped on Peterson's sinking ship and decided to build a lifeboat (rebuilding) three years after taking the captain's chair.

Cowher worked in Kansas City under Marty Schottenheimer. The Chiefs are renovating their stadium and are losing season-ticket holders as you read this. Cowher would inject some life into the franchise and fill the new stadium while the team recovers from Peterson's incompetence.
Cowher is a perfect fit for Kansas City.

kill yourself.

Seriously, hiring Cowher would be completely stupid. We need freshness. And youth.

If Herm gets fired I'd love to see Kiffin in here. Hell, the guy darn near swept Shanahan last season. Not to mention Herm!

Wherever Cowher ends up, he's gonna command full control over player personnel and the coaching staff(ala Holmgren and Shannahan).

Personally, I wouldn't mind if the Chiefs gave him exactly that.

i repeat,

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. He is one of only six coaches in NFL history to claim at least seven division titles.

playoff record of 12-9. playoff appearances in first 6 yrs.

a tough, experienced, proven winner is what we need to lead our young troops into battle.

That's all well and good, but I honestly question Cowher's motivation at this point in his career. He seemed like a guy who was going through the motions his last year in Pittsburgh.

The guy is basically a Marty clone who stumbled into a franchise quarterback. I'm tired of retreads and we DESPERATELY need fresh blood. Cowher would get Joe Camaro Mullethead all fired up, but I don't see him as an answer.

On the positive side, I bet Whitlock would really irritate him.
