Can anyone feel my man-crush forming?[/quote
Oh I have had a man crush on him for a while now. If the Bidwills meet with him again I would be willing to take him out to eat afterwards and pick up the tab
Will you take his name, or just hyphenate it?Can anyone feel my man-crush forming?[/quote

I really like Rivera. He does have a plan in place on staff he would bring in. He is just 44 years and full of energy. He is my first choice. It would be great to have a "smashmouth physcial team."
So is the HC for the Patriots, & he seems to be pretty good.I don't really care much for his comments on the interview. Rather bland, IMO.
Now, I know he wasn't giving a press conference here like Sherman did, and he may have said a lot more that just wasn't printed, but those comments don't have much excitement in them. I'd love to hear (and see) him talk about the interview.
With all that said, I still would love to have him here but those comments sure didn't do anything to hype me up...very bland.
I think the Falcons end up with Wisenhunt. Raiders promote Ryan. Steelers get Grimm. Dolphins get Jim Bates. Redskins get Cowher in a few years.

Actully I didnt think it seemed bland, I thought he sounded like a guy with a plan & knows what his style is. He also has a current job he has to worry about also so I dont blame him for not sounding like he rehearsed his answers all week.
I think Cowher ends up with the Browns in a year or two. Personally, I don't see Cowher going to work for Danny Snyder.
I gotchya, I am kinda the other way. When I hear a guy talk up the obvious (Boldin, Fitz, Leinart) It is just the same old song & dance to me. Everyone is gunna say that. In a way I kinda like the way he handled it. He gave us an idea f how he wants "his" team to play, which interests me more than telling us how good our best players are...That's not it...I'm not saying I want some jumpy, hyper guy. I'm just saying there seemed to be a lack of enthusiasm in his comments. "I had a good conversation. They had fair questions. I think it went well."
I think it probably has more to do with the media not printing other answers or not many questions being asked, but I don't get why these couple of comments would get people slobbering. Fine to slobber over him for what he brings to the table, but the answers there were very meh. If it weren't a popular candidate I'm sure people would be all over him (unfairly). Just strikes me funny...he really didn't say anything and he didn't sound enthused. Like I said though, I would like to see and hear his comments, not just the media writing them down...could be very different.
No need to rehearse, but no comments about the current defense's play and the weapons on offense, whether he thinks its a good situation out here, etc. Just "we talked, it was good. Protect the qb."
I want to reiterate that I am not a hater on this guy, far from it as he's someone I'd love to have coach here (more than many others). I just wish we'd get more of a feel for his interview than that.

Yikes! That would mean getting rid of half the team and starting over.... again....

Cowher could end up in Dallas.
''Protect the quarterback first,'' Rivera said. ''And to protect the quarterback means you've got to be a smashmouth, physical team.''
smashmouth is something we'll do when needed. That's why it was so hard to mix a good running gaame in this year, though better than what we've seen in years. We're not set up that way. It would be very difficult to take a high powered receiving team and just toss it away. I thought we showed the capabilities once in a bit of spots. Just not enough for me.
The fellow from Green Bay is probably closest to what we're looking ffor. Potent passing game, but used to keeping the O line ready to split the play calling right down the middle.
