yeah, could they have really expected for Cowher to have jumped onto a sinking ship?

okay, next.....what about Marty Schottenheimer? is he coaching anywhere? after yesterday's tail-whippin' by the Bucs, maybe coaching isn't the Falcons' problem.....that game was just awful.

If Cowher was going to return (and I hope he does) I would pray that it would not be to the Falcons. The Falcons are a mess right now, Petrino has one foot out the door before he ever stepped in it. If I were the Falcon Players, I would seriously consider heading down to Arkansas and suprise Petrino with a Blanket Party (you saw one in Full Metal Jacket) however I might consider swithing from bars of soap stuffed in socks to devices of a more suitable nature, such as nail tipped bats, machetes, maces and flails.

There is no way he was going to that train wreck of a team.

The players on this team seem to know a lot about coaching. Give it to one of them Art. You just got to stop holding Joey back from being all he can be...

He's waiting for John Fox to be fired in Carolina.

The man is no fool! Who in their right mind wants that mess to clean up? First a player dirties the place up and then the Booby Petrino debacle. Its gonna take much more than a good coach to make the Falcons become a serious contender. Whoever that Architect is, Atlanta deserves much better. And whoever that person may be, he needs full control and no ownership interference to make it work. Otherwise, Atlanta will continue to be a second rate NFL team.

exactly Pop King...that is really the only way he is going to coach..is if it is Carolina, close to his family...

Jerry Glanville told Rich McKay to lose his number. This could take a while for the Dirty birds.

This is the first of many coaches to turn down the Falcons job. Denny Green might take Art Blanks money tho ... he did in Arizona.

ClintInDFW | 12/17/07, 09:12 AM

The Falcons are a disaster from stem to stern.

I'm sure Cowher considered it though....for about 2 1/2 seconds.

Bandit77 | 12/17/07, 09:16 AM

Hey, they relaced his picture!

Bandit77 | 12/17/07, 09:17 AM

glad cowher said no. suspect he's waiting for the right team and a piece of a team before he'll accept.

pw | 12/17/07, 09:17 AM

Give the job to Joe Horn. He knows all and does all. Just ask him he'll tell you.

Bayou Jim | 12/17/07, 09:32 AM

Wow ya dont say.

Moondizzle | 12/17/07, 09:38 AM

They ought to change the Falcons logo to a dead-in-the water, burning ship with a 20 degree list to port.

Wanted Man | 12/17/07, 09:38 AM

or perhaps a pitbull to honor the guy that started the descent ..

pw | 12/17/07, 09:45 AM

He ain't stupid, too much work for the man, not enough talent
