Thats the year the first IPhone came out. How old is he? I don't know guys. This seems a far cry from young forward thinking offensive mind.

He's devolved over the years to get his radio show more attention. Yesterday we was the leader of the idiotic "Jets threw the game" brigade. I don't believe this one either. This is a cheap publicity stunt.

SackExchangeNYJ Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 He has been away from the game in a coaching capacity for a long time. I'd be OK with it if he hired younger coordinators who are familiar with the systems today. Maybe a younger QB coach who can come in and take the reins of an offensive system.

Tell me how the retread coaching hires are working out? Actually he adapted quite a bit throughout his 15 years. He was ground and pound when he had a limited QB in Neil O'Donnell, He heavily adapted the offense with Kordell Stewart, he went with an aggressive offense the couple of years he had Tommy Maddox and was there to help break in Big Ben.... He was very far from a one-trick pony. He's been very close to the game the past 10 years and has seen its evolution. Again, am I sure it'll work? No - is there risk? Sure - but I can't think of anyone that would be less of a risk. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he would understand the importance of the OC hire in this the new NFL. He's been watching and commenting on it ever since he left coaching. That and he makes a commitment to this team with JD. Some of his OC's with the Steelers were Ron Erhardt ,Bruce Arians, Chan Gailey, Kevin Gilbride, Ken Whisenhunt..

ryu79 Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 I noticed Cowher was randomly complimentary of the Schmidt's situation at half time yesterday.

What could go wrong? Good coaches are adaptable. I'm sure Cowher has the ability to adapt to the current style of play in the NFL. Dick Vermeil had a 15-year gap in coaching stints. Coming out of that 15-year gap, he orchestrated the Greatest Show on Turf, which was way ahead of its time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is eerily similar to the parcels situation. Parcels was only here for three years and was gone. Step 1: Cowher hires tremendous staff filled with young, talented, and motivated coaches. Step 2: Cowher brings respectability to the org and gets it on the winning track. Step 3: Cowher retires whenever he chooses, leaving behind a successor from his own coaching staff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BroadwayRay Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Seriously, can't believe there are people knocking the idea of Cowher coming in to coach the Jets.

Adoni Beast Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 The length of time out of the league definitely is concerning. I also was hoping out next coach would be here for a decade plus. This would feel like a 5 years max situation. Big Ben didn’t really take off until after Cowher left and I think there were some complaints that he was too conservative offensively. Flip side, he would be a true culture changer, no nonsense, smart. He knows how to hire a good staff and develop players. If we go this route, I would hope he would hire someone like Tony Elliot, Mike Kafka (although unlikely as he’ll be OC soon as Bienemy gets hired), Mike McDaniels, Mike LaFleur, or Kevin O’Connell as OC and groom them to take over as HC after Cowher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This all around, with the inclusion of allowing his young, talented, and motivated offensive staff truly handle the playcalling. I just have concerned that Cowher might lean to conservative more often than not. Punting on 4th & 3 on the opponents 35 down 6 in the 4th type of defensive minded bullsh*t. But if he truly has a succession plan with a good young coach and allows them to do their job. I’m all for this. He will be a true culture changer.

bostonmajet Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 I would be all in for this assuming he could find an OC/QB coach or DC he could groom to take over and he was okay with a 4 year plan. I would prefer not to go the route we when with Parcels where we built a team to win now and then after it didn't work, he balled and left us with Groh (or BB without Brady). In fact, in a perfect world we would have hime hired by the end of the season; Then let the pundits tell TL not to come out for the draft . Cowher would add instant credibility to the Jets. And then trade the pick (with Cowher on board) for a boat load of picks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Boomer is right though, if the Jets land the number 1 pick, assuming Trevor is coming out, the Jets job becomes the most attractive job opening. Especially when you consider all the cap space and additional draft capital they have. Let Joe Douglas pick the next Head Coach. I agree. The Jets are a laughingstock but have a lot of ammunition to turn things around. Any coach with a solid ego would at least be intrigued by the idea of coaching Trevor Lawrence and restoring the Jets to respectability. I don't see Cowher as a fit, but I wouldn't say never. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. The biggest knock on Cowher for me would be his age (63 - I'd prefer someone younger). But he could definitely be here for 5 years and get us back on track. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
