Let's clear something up about Cowher

[patmoran2006]

Inaccurate reports are all over that Cowher has "snubbed" the Bills.

Let me say this.. Bill Cowher has not snubbed the Bills, nor did he say he would not have any interest in a potential vacancy.

What he did say (and the Bills DID contact him) is that he would not be interviewing for the Bills job, or any other, when there is not already a coaching vacancy. In other words, when there is a vacancy, then he will evaluate things.

Does this mean he IS interested in the gig? Very likely not. But he has not snubbed the Bills, just as he hasn't snubbed the Bucs either.

The fact that Fewell is the interim coach means there is a vacancy here. He's only the coach because someone has to do it.

So the Bucs would have to fire Raheem Morris 1st and then he would intverview for the Bucs job?

Re: Let's clear something up about Cowher

Well then Jason LaCanfora is a complete and utter moron. He says that Mike Holmgren, Jon Gruden and Bill Cowher snubbed the Bills which is bull****. Cowher said he would wait until after the season when there is an actual vacancy on a team to interview anywhere and Gruden said he wants to stay at ESPN for at least one more year. It has NOTHING to do with snubbing.

1/3 4:08 - Hi Dick, look, we think we've made a big mistake and it occurs to us that you are still under contract. Would you like to resume the job and run out your contract?

1/3 5:00 - vtext - Bills hire Dick Jauron, second stint.

He may not have officially 'snubbed' the Bills, but that doesn't raise his odds of coming here above 5% (as you illuded).

Just wondering, but how do you know this? Because of what the media has said few months ago? Maybe Cowher told the Bills between then and now he's not interested in our opening? Jason La Confora as clueless as he may be, he was the first guy to report Jauron got fired and was the first to report Edwards was benched so he does know somebody at OBD.

Are you basing it on your "sources" or based on what you think? Because it sounds to me you're speculating....

Re: Let's clear something up about Cowher

If, and I mean IF, the Bills gig is somewhere in the vacinity of the $10 million and part ownership, would you hang up? Oh, I thought you might NOT! Bill Cowher will listen to anything Ralph Wilson says about a new direction for his franchise because it isn't the money alone, but Cowher would bring instant credibility, and HE knows it!! Sellouts, merchandising, national exposure, WINNING and playoffs are the LIKELY outcome. Bill Cowher coached in Buffalo against those Super Bowl teams, so he knows, first hand, how GOOD it can be in Western New York. Don't dismiss this out of hand, it may just come to fruition! Everybody says this type of "outpost" would tarnish a reputation, I say that when he wins, it only enhances it! We've endured losing for soooo long now that as Bills fans we don't recognize the viability of this team to someone who can actually HANDLE the Head Coaching position. I'd say its possible, likely.... ???

Re: Let's clear something up about Cowher

Uhhhh..

Anyone want to "re-pay attention to this thread" on the heels of what Coach Sal was trying to tell you tonight.

Timing is everything my friends..........Do not be foolish and rule Cowher out, I tried to illustrate that earlier.

Re: Let's clear something up about Cowher

As I speculated in the thread I started, Cowher may only have the Bills and Tampa to chose from.
