Bill Cowher is only 49 years old. Even after 15 years coaching the Steelers, he’s still a pup as far as football coaches go. Mark my words, he won’t be “retired” for too long.

Why? Cowher is as competitive as anyone you will ever meet.

Sure, he’ll take a year off, get to know the wife and kids again. But, those competitive juices will soon start to flow again. He’ll want to prove he can be just as successful a coach for another team and another owner.

Cowher is a proud man. He believes in his ability to inspire and encourage young men.

This season was a prime example. At 2-6, the Steelers could have easily folded the tent. But they didn’t. The went 6-2 in the last half of the season. A big reason for that is coaching. Cowher’s players will run through walls for him and win or lose, under Cowher the Steelers always play hard and physical. The only reason they couldn’t beat the Baltimore Ravens was because, well, they’re just not as good as they are, at least not for this year.

Cowher may be leaving Pittsburgh, but he WILL be back in the NFL, he’ll make a ton of money, and don’t be surprised if he wins another Super Bowl.
