I'm sorry...

Whats different about it, really?

I did this last yr and made a thread on it. The only difference Cowher really has is he's had more years as a HC, and had them all in the same place. He's got plenty of home playoff losses, an incredibly stupid decision regarding a starting QB and a super bowl win that he had absolutely nothing to do with.

His overall record is 149-90 in 15 seasons, which means he averages about a 10-6 record every yr. Wade's record is 82-56. 3-4 of that was as an interim HC, so as the real HC he is 79-52, a 60% winning %, Cowher's is 62%.

If you can guarantee me that Cowher being here would get us the same treatment from the officials that he got in Pittsburgh, I'm all for the move. Otherwise, I see no upside of Cowher whatsoever.

What's the difference?

Completely beside everything that was said here I'd just like to say, what good is a prediction thread if they all go one way. Jeez. I picked what I thought was a relatively fair score, 27-24 Texans, could you not have seen that score prior to the game?

So I was wrong, I'm glad about that.

You were completely wrong in your prediction and not even close. You bashed the whole team in it.

You're a joke. Better off a Commanders fan. Piss off.

Cowher = 14 years, 1 SB trophy yet people are on his jock like it's made of win. I just don't get the love.

Landry = 29 years, 2 SB Trophies.

So one more in more than double the time.

Not exactly blowing Cowher out of the water there.

Just saying.

I didn't bash anything, I made a prediction. A prediction is based on nothing other than a guess or what you are going to expect based on other results, and from what I saw vs Washington and Chicago that's about what I expected.

So don't tell me what I said, It wasn't bashing. Oh look someone was completely wrong in a prediction! That's why they're called predictions. Duh.

Cowher's is nothing to get overly excited about. He has a number of home playoff losses when his team was a strong favorite.

And with the officiatng they've had over the years, its a whole lot easier to win games.

Landry got to 5 and easily could have won the 3 we lost. Horrible officiating definitely cost us two of those games.

To bring up Landry in the same context with Cowher is an absolute joke.
 
Sorry for all you haters who thought the talent level on this team was overrated. ;)

Not letting go of it, because I really believe it. Downplaying this team's talent level is just a cop-out excuse for reasons why they haven't taken advantage of that talent level and turned it into a championship. Yeah, we've got weak spots, like any team. I think we're weak at ILB, FS, and spots along the OL. But overall, no team can hang.

We'll be 7-2 before we hit the "tough" part of our schedule. Book it.

I am no expert or anything, but I watch a metric ton of football, and I don't see any team out there with the pieces we have. I have to believe that we'll find some way to make it work, just as a matter of pride. If we do, noone out there can hang with us.
 
This thread is no better the one of those "i told you so" threads that everyone loves so much after a loss

Seriously...he should be burned at the stake for even putting Bill Cowher in the same paragraph as Tom Landry, hell, the same BOOK.

0-3

We'll play the best game of the season but still find ways to lose the game 28-24

I knew with was going to be a response.

If you're going to use how many SB Trophies as a criteria then anyone can and will be compared using that criteria.

Has nothing to do with how I feel about Landry so don't even start with that crap.

Should a could a would a have nothing to do with it.

Cowher could say the same thing about SB XXX...if it wasn't for O'Donnell...

No he couldnt, O Donnell made some stupid throws, but it wasnt due to corruption. They lost. Brown didnt return either of those for a TD either.The Stealers could have stiopped us but didnt.

There's absolutely no comparison to Landry and Cowher's situation. Cowher also didnt have to start a team from scratch either.

What was your prediction from the first 2 games if you don't mind me asking? :rolleyes:

Some people here remind me of a giants fan that was trolling another cowboys board a few years back during one of our annual October - November hot streaks predicting we'd lose every week and when he finally got it right after 5-6 wrongs he came crawling out the woodwork to have his little told you so moment and pat him self on the back

i'll gladly pick a loss every week and be wrong if it means we'll win, however i will never post a thread to brag about it if we do lose. Some will, and we all know how much people here love those threads


Hypocrites

My point is it's silly to use how many SB trophies you have as the ONLY criteria on how you judge a coach as my example of Landry vs Cowher proves, obviously no sane person would put them in the same category but by that criteria alone they are.

Here's a doosey for you... by that criteria alone.. Chuck Noll is the greatest coach in NFL History and of course we will all laugh at that.

Sorry but you're wrong. This "bashing" has been negative, sure. But as far as I've seen we haven't had any positives until this past game. Oh look, you haven't responded to any of my positive posts!

Here, have a smiley: :laugh2:
