And don't give me Warren Sapp... his best days are in the rear view mirror.

Does anyone find it interesting that Bill Cowher is taking a one-year sabbatical and the Giants extended Coughlin for exactly one year? Is it too early to start the Cowher to the Giants rumors for next year? :lol:

The American Factotum
How about the AZ Cardinals hiring Mike Sherman? If you're a Cardinals fan - and thank God you're not - aren't you pissed about this?

I can't help but think Chico's chances will improve if the Bears reprise their red-ass beat-down of the Seahawks Sunday.

Instead, he received a one-year contract extension through the 2008 season. Many fans will be outraged by this and more than a few Giants players may be wincing at this very moment, but Mara insisted "We remain convinced that he is the right man for the job."

Per ProFootballTalk.com: Multiple league sources tell us that the Arizona Cardinals have selected Texans assistant Mike Sherman to be their next head coach. Chico can be their D-coordinator now - since he's not contractually obligated to the Bears beyond their next loss.... or after their Super Bowl victory. I don't think Chico is gonna get a Head Coaching gig. Things aren't lining up for him. Unless he wants Race Bannon with a couple of crossed bones on the side of his team's helmets

His window is closing quickly. If the Bears defense has a bad game Sunday, he is as good as done for head coach material this year (and maybe for good).

Hootman, I'd argue that he has zero chance of a head coaching gig in the NFL this year. Who's left? Miami? He wants a big name - he's all about image. I felt he hired Wanny as a favor to Jimmy Johnson. Keep an eye on that Pete Carroll situation. Pittsburgh? I highly doubt a loyal owner / management team would turn their backs on a current coach like the two vying for the job. Oakland? I'd argue that their current D-Coordinator is BETTER than Ron Rivera. His mullet aside... Buddy's kid has quietly put together a helluva defense out there - without the benefit of any 'big name stars'. And don't give me Warren Sapp... his best days are in the rear view mirror. Kirk Morrison is a beast of a linebacker, and their secondary is very solid. They'll hire an offensive minded head coach, that Al Davis can keep under his thumb.

Cowher had one year remaining on his contract, hence the 'one year' sabbatical. I don't put too much into the one year extension for Coughlin either, they need to get a GM and they don't want him to be stuck with Coughlin for too long.

And I GUARANTEE you this.... When Chico is elsewhere, he will NOT run the Cover 2 defense. To this day it amazes me that he was the 'coaching' fall guy for Lovie Smith's stubborn ways in last year's playoff loss. Who runs the defense? Lovie or Chico - that is the question.
