extrahammer Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chat/_/id/...gger-tim-graham Katelyn (Syracuse, NY) As you said it is a long shot for Cowher to go to Buffalo, but please tell me Buffalo will at least ask and make Cowher turn them down? Tim Graham (1:13 PM) I get the sense that may have happened a couple times already. Even so, I hear the Bills keep trying to win him over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastly Dareus Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Schefter just on ESPN.. Now that Seattle has a head coaching opening, he now says "Cowher can be had if Seattle talks him into it and gives him enough power. Cowher is available for any team that looks good" But On Monday he said his sources told him: "Cowher not likely to coach next season because of no interesting openings" Looks like to me that Schefter has no idea what hes talking about when it comes to Bill Cowher. He doesnt have any real sources close to Cowher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scribo Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I do not see how the Seahawks are that much more attractive than the Bills. And, as I posted a little while ago, Seattle is a much longer flight from North Carolina than is Buffalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though California is beautiful, the long flights and time change wear you down..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesnt have any real sources close to Cowher. He just means Cowher is not going to coach in Buffalo in 2010. Now that there's another opening, it's possible he could coach next year, just not in Buffalo. I wonder how many times the Bills are gonna try to win over Cowher and be told "No Thanks" before they move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Cowher publicly stated he was not interested in coaching the Bills it would end all speculation. So far, the Chin has remained mum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 So basically no one except for the Bills is interested in Cowher? Not Washington, not Carolina, not Tampa, not Cleveland, not Seattle. Maybe the Bills shouldn't be interested either? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnyguy Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Well, we've already named the franchise after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobillies Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Speculation, but fun to read. Dungy also said that Vick would be a good fit in Buffalo once Philly releases him (there's no way they are going to pick up a $5 mill team option on him, esp with Kolb on the roster). Maybe Dungy can give us our new coach (Cowher) and our new qb (Vick). Dungy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Well, we've already named the franchise after him. I like it! That should have been the Billboard that's going up: Cowher... you have to come now. We already named the team after you. Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanker Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 Here are lyrics that should be sung to . I have a big obsession I think it came from posts And when he signs his contract Then Cowher I shall toast! Oh - Cowher, Cowher, Cowher I think it came from posts And when he signs his contract Then Cowher I shall toast! He is the coach that some want With a great and big long chin And when my Cowher's hired He signs and then we win! Oh - Cowher, Cowher, Cowher I think it came from posts And when he signs his contract Then Cowher I shall toast! My Cowher's always playful He loves to coach and spit A winning game from Cowher Is all we ask - no sheit! Oh - Cowher, Cowher, Cowher I think it came from posts And when he signs his contract Then Cowher I shall toast! With apologies to KTFABD and others.

ColdBlueNorth Posted January 8, 2010 Share Posted January 8, 2010 I'm not so sure about all of the Cow-love. If I remember correctly, this organization has tried to import a few of the people at least partially responsible for Pittsburgh's success over the years, and we all know the results (Mularkey, Donahoe). To be honest, Cowher's record doesn't really impress me that much, and I'm not so sure that he can really turn this thing around. Taking an objective look at the team we have, any coach worth his salt (and any blind guy for that matter) can see that our offense is abysmal, and will work to address our issues there. Our strengths (yes we do have some) are that we have a very young team, and a defense with the potential to be dominant. If we take the perspective that we need to teach young guys how to play the game, there's no better candidate in my mind than Marty Schottemheimer. He is a teacher and a proven winner with multiple franchises. If we lean more towards building a dominant defense and a competent offense, I believe Brain Billick has won a Super Bowl using that formula (my God, Trent Dilfer walks around with a Super Bowl ring!). Looking a little closer, I'm not so sure Cowher is so worthy of a highway sign. amen to that. Cowher has credibility and his w/l record is very close to Marty's, but I do not get why everyone is on a Cowher or we are doomed kick. With Buddy at the helm, I feel much better about the Bills getting good football people in - haven't felt that way in a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I think we need to start a movement of Move On Cowher. Sure doesnt seem like the guy wants to be here and alot of the Sttelers fans I talk to lately really feel he is overrated. I want the fire and would like him hired but as each day goes on not clear he has the desire to rebuild or desire to be in Buffalo.. Whichever its time to Move On Cowher. Go back to your seat next to your buddy Marino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastly Dareus Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 I dont think he is overrated... But it is time to move on, get off the Cowher or bust bandwagon If he wanted to be here, he wouldn't be letting ESPN and the media say he wont be coaching in 2010. And he wouldn't let them basically say that he isnt interested in Buffalo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
