Cowher Resigns

[cdt]

Bill Cowher has informed his assistant coaches he is stepping down as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers after 15 seasons.

Cowher wanted to take a week to make his decision, and the Steelers were willing to give him until next Monday or Tuesday to make a decision. But after talking over the situation with the family and the Steelers, Cowher decided to move up his announcement until Friday.

The Steelers scheduled a 1 p.m. eastern press conference to discuss Cowher's situation. Although the team did not announce a decision, the word of his resignation was delivered to his assistant coaches.

Wow, thats pretty big, he had a tough offseason with the whole Big Ben accident. He is still one of the better coaches in the league, and im sure he will make a return, if not to the Steelers, then someone else. He will be turning 50 in May...so he still has some more years to go...

Browns fans should be pretty happy about this. His head 2 head record vs you guys was downright crazy.

Me, I'm fairly happy to see him go as well. Too many missed opportunities over the last 15 years. I know he won a title, but in reality we were in the AFC Championship game 5 more times(at home) and lost a superbowl in the process.

You don't know the pain of being a Browns fan. I'd be doing backflips if we could somehow get back to 8-8.

Maybe the era where Steelers start to suck worse then the browns... I can only pray.
