The case against Cowher

[lowblowlandry]

I agree. I really don't want to see Cowher in D.C. and I think the players (especially our defense) would resent him for taking the job they believed should have gone to Greg Williams. Also, we were just starting to get some positive media attention for the first time in years as a team that emphasizes family first, a place where prospective free agents might want to come for a little less maybe. Let's not screw that up and go back to making splashy moves from outside of the organization, like we used to.

But not to worry, I totally believe Snyder is smarter that a lot of fans give him credit for and he will make the right move by giving the job to G. Williams. You don't become a self made multi-millionaire/billionaire with just dumb luck.

Welcome on your first post & nice name, Lowblow. I totally agree w/your first paragraph & I know many here do as well, while I HOPE that your 2nd paragraph is true.

Snyder's brilliant as a biz man, no doubt about that. I didn't realize until I read the wash post article today about him, that his first fortune was made through 'Snyder Communications.' I thought he got into real estate development first. Look at his other investments, Dick Clark productions & Six Flags. The man is in the entertainment business. Where football people & fans might see an obvious need for continuity w/the staff, Synder may fear the team loses its luster w/an ordinary dude like Grilliams. The last line of this article is scary, though its only from a ticket broker. here's the link
