How is it all of a sudden now we hear that Holmgren is Snyders boy? Snyder wanted Gibbs when he bought the team and Gibbs said no. Gibbs comes back and Cowher retires. Snyder tries for Cowher because supposedly Snyder likes him and respects him and is..."his boy." Now we hear rumblings about Holmgren?
Wasn't Cowher a defensive coach? or am I wrong. We could keep Zorn if he chooses to stay by simply making Cowher HC and keeping Zorn for OC and QB and runing the offensive side of the ball. The big question is would Zorn step back and say I'd rather just be a OC all the other stuff was to much? and even saying, I was impressed with Zorn for 8 games of the season, I am not impressed with the latter 8 games of the season and how he can't adjust his offense to create wins. I'm not impressed with how he can't adjust his offense during half time in order to pull out a win. Hell at this point I'm more impressed with the fact that Spurrier was able to do more of these things and lose then Zorn. So unless he lights it up the last two games and shows he can make adjustments and make this system work somehow.....I can see him being let go or someone being hired to tutor him....perhaps it's Holmgren, but Holmgren is not Snyders boy....we all know that's Cowher. If he can get him he will get him. No matter the cost.
As someone else pointed out. This team is probubly the best team for him to want to come to. He would not coach a team that is a rival to Pitt. It would make him look bad. So Cincy's out as well as the Browns. He would be stupid to work for the Raiders which he's not. As long as I've lived I can't remember Detroit ever having a winning record. lol. So Detroits out. I'm not sure of any other teams who would be looking. Keep in mind his daughter supposedly went to a school near by. This would enable him to see more of her games and be more active in her life. Something stated before also.

and Celts, as for the "Snyder tried to get Cowher and Cowher said no" ....Cowher was sticking to his time limit he claimed he would take as well as his other responsibilities to networks. He said something like I'm taking 2-3 yrs off. This would be the year he would be coming back according to his original wording. I believe because he probably made a promise to his wife or something and second kid not to move them out of the schools they were in. I thought he had a younger daughter who would be graduating HS. about now. could be wrong.
