Football, Finally!

This isn't going to be long. But I had a thought, and so I thought I would share. First off, I am a huge Steelers fan. Having said that, I don't like to just blindly ignore other teams in the league. One team I think is getting a bum rap this season is the Browns. Now that they have beaten the Bengals (not sure how much of an achievement that is) maybe people will take them seriously. I want people to, because I want the Steelers to. I think there are going to be teams this season that don't and get surprised by them. I can't point to any one thing specifically, but they almost beat the Ravens, and they did beat the Bengals. Now I'm not going to say that they are going to win the AFC north, or even win a wild card spot, but I also think that the AFC north is the best group in the NFL. I think if the Browns or Bengals were in a different group, they would see the playoffs a lot more, and who knows what else. Which brings me to the REAL reason for this blog. Most people agree that Mangini probably isn't going to be around much longer. Holmgren wants to fix the Browns, and he's good at fixing. So a new coach is probably coming. If only the Browns could entice a quality coach to come to their team. But who would want to coach the Browns, that the Browns would want as a coach? Well, someone that has an interest in the team would be nice for starters. Maybe a former player. Any unemployed coaches like that out there? How about someone that knows the AFC North, better than almost any other coach. Yeah, that would be good. Super bowl credentials couldn't hurt. Anyone like that out there that has recently been discussed as coming out back to coaching? Oh yeah, Bill Cowher. This is honestly, my worst nightmare. I think if the Browns got Cowher, they would make the playoffs. Not this season of course, but next season. And hopefully Holmgren isn't thinking like me. Hopefully Cowher would never consider being in the Browns organization ever again. But if there is one coaching/player change that I would dread more than any other this off season, this has GOT to be it. What do you think?
