Curious...Why would you not want Cowher?

because he's overrated?

he coached the Stealers for an eon, and the only thing he won was handed to him by the officials

he was the coach of a team that lost multiple home playoff games

he was the coach who insisted that knucklehead scrub Kordell was a QB, even when other coaches and personnel people in his own organization had major questions about him

Hmmm, HE had his team consistently playing at a top level. I could go for some of that here.

"played in weak division" also comes to mind

The question no one has asked is, could Wade end up being his DC and face us twice a year? There are ties and mutual respect.
Can Wade coach the 4-3? Because I'm not sure we have the personnel for a 3-4 or the patience (from the owner) for the transition.

I thought so too. But that means Gruden and Cowher are both still out there (I'm assuming the Holmgren to Cleveland thing is done). I would prefer either Gruden or Cowher more than Shanny.
Gruden to stay at ESPN, and Cowher could end up in Carolina if Fox gets the axe.

This ^

He got a tremendous amount of help to get his ring. I highly doubt the officials will be so generous to him on the Dallas sideline. **** we've seen our CB's get dragged by a WR and no call. We saw our WR hit 15 yards downfield and then hit while defenseless and no call. We saw another WR spun around by the opposition's CB in the endzone and end up facing the wrong direction and no call. All of that in one game.

Nah, Cowher won't get the same love he got in P***burgh. Not to mention he wouldn't be able to get the team doctor to accidentally "lose" a few hundred doses of steroids and it not be a full blown investigation by the NFL.
