From what I gather, the main reason some of you aren't sold on Russ Grimm as a potential HC, is because he doesn't have experience as a HC. Well, neither was Ken Whisenhunt before he got the job in AZ.
This guy has coached the team to one Super Bowl appearance (and barring that last miracle drive by the Steelers, almost a SB win), coached them back into at least the 2nd round of the playoffs the NEXT season (which these days is uncommon these days, for a SB participant). He's a no nonsense, smart, tough, aggressive HC. And Grimm has been there EVERY STEP OF THE WAY. And this isn't eve counting his years as a Steelers assistant.
This guy is going to be a dynamite HC. The more I think about it, the more I want him as our HC. What's the history show for previous SB winning Head Coaches with their new team? I mean, I'll obviously take Cowher if he decides to take our job, but Grimm is now my 2nd option, above Marty.
