Next year's coach?

Maybe I missed something, but has anyone ever denied that fans wanted Cowher fired at various points throughout his tenure? As far as I know, everyone is well aware of that.

The difference is the prevalence of social media now and the lack of it until the end of his career.

Let's be clear. I'm not favorably comparing to Tomlin to Cowher. Cowher put up winners with a shoestring budget comparable to other teams. All I'm saying is people are waxing poetic about some things and that's a mythology. People were calling for his job. And a couple things don't go his way snd he never wins a Championship in Pittsburgh. And I don't think, I know from reading his book.......he'd absolutely agree.

They had a website(now offline of course) dedicated to it. Don't know if there is one for Tomlin.

For those that don't like links here is a screenshot of the announcement in January of 2007 that Cowher's tenure had come to an end, and wishing" Long live the new king!" to the new coach...LOL.

The fans wanted to boo YEARS ago but bit their lip. They better beat Miami on Monday night or it will be deafining.

I think most admit that a ton of fans wanted him gone at least a few years
I was not 1 of them
I had 2 GSDs at the time. One was named Bill and his brother was named cowher. Fun to call them in my backyard as I live near baltimore
