The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Bill Cowher will be on the cover for Electronic Arts' new video game, NFL Head Coach. The game will challenge the hands-on gamer to build and manage every aspect of a football team from the ground up. Cowher said, "With NFL Head Coach there is finally a game that gives true football fans the chance to strategize and become the head coach of their favorite team. Coaching is about leadership and everyone will now see how difficult, but also how rewarding coaching can be." The game is scheduled to arrive in stores June 20.

is he going to be smiling like a half cocked rooster on it....

 

[littlewebs]

So can you even play the games?

Hopefully it will have the same effect as the Madden curse on his "Super" Stealers.

So can you even play the games?

Screw Cowher, put Parcells on the cover!

Geez, wonderful ... another innovation from EA to rape the consumers.

This game is nothing more than Madden franchise mode with some added bells and whistles.

Man, EA really knows how to rob it's customers. Look out for the new Madden 07 ... with the new added feature of turning OFF the QB flashlight.

Amazing. EA's the only company who can get away with selling the SAME game, with a different cover, for the past 7 years.

Parcells has yet to be in any of the Madden games since he became our coach, will he be in this game?

Doubt it.

 

[rdsknsbaby]

id buy it.... it seems pretty cool.

 

[LILCOOK]

I doubt you'll be able to play tha games. You'll probably just be able to call tha plays & watch the plays unfold.

The Madden Curse could strike again! Maybe Cowers will get lockjaw.

I can't wait for this game. Me and my best friend always Sim franchises whenever we play each other rather then the actual game. Any internet GM should love it. I just wish it would be backwards compatible for the 360, but oh well saved my xbox for a reason i guess

Parcells probably won't even be on the game a la John Madden's games.

Are you talking about coach "Dallas Coach"? They could at least have a feature that lets you edit Mr. Coach. I'd just use John Fox's head and give him blonde hair.
