The NFL Coaching Situation

This isn't really Colts related, but I've been seeing a lot of this, especially  from the media, but also from the fans this season, and I had to speak out.

PLEASE STOP TALKING ABOUT BILL COWHER COMING BACK TO COACHING.

Now, Cowher's not the entire reason I'm saying this. It's the utter idiocy of people wanting guys like Cowher and Mike Holmgren to come resurrect their teams after a sucky season. I understand that Cowher and Holmgren get noticed because they won Super Bowl rings, and were generally successful, but they are done with football. Cowher looks happy in the studio, and Holmgren looks like he needs a year or two off before coaching again, so he probably won't be available immediately.

I do have a point here, and not just a rant. So, here's the point-Media, please look elsewhere for the savior of a franchise.

Look at the Atlanta Falcons. Rookie QB, GM and head coach, and they are in the playoffs! (And I will probably have to rethink my "Matt Ryan is overrated," position, but that's another post entirely). Mike Singletary has done an excellent job trying to turn things around in San Francisco, and Tony Sparano's Dolphins deserve an award of some kind for that turnaround.

My point here-Look for other people to run your franchise. Guys like the defensive coordinators for the Colts, Giants, and Titans-Ron Meeks, Steve Spagnuolo and Jim Schwartz-all deserve consideration for Head Coaching positions, in places like Detroit, Cleveland(Who also needs to lose it's GM) and Kansas City.

Cowher and Holmgren have done good work, but the media needs to let them go, and start looking for new blood.
