Pittsburgh has proven over the years that they have a great system in place.
Cowher didn't carry that team on his back.
I believe the problem most have with Billy C is that he had the talent to get to the big one season after season and yet kept failing.
It wasn't until the talent level of that team became so incredibly high and dominant that he couldn't help but get to the Super Bowl.
And with the amount of rebuilding left to do with this team I would rather have a coach who can get us to the next level without needing absolute dominance at almost every position.
We need a coach who can take a team that's 80% of the way there and operate a chess match to make us play like we're really 100% of the way there.
Otherwise, we're looking at a 5 year rebuild before being competitive.
