Felger A Little Over the Top on Cowher?

[Hoss]

Interested to hear the boards take on Felger's article on Cowher. Saying Cowher has acquired a "loser's Mentality". Not sure he really makes much of a case except to reference a few quotes where the couch tries to keep things in perspective. Sure, he hasn't won the big games, but who were his QBs? Kordell, Neil O'donnell, Tommy Maddox? I wouldn't want to go into a big game with any of those three as my QB. And Cowher didn't lose that superbowl to the cowboys, can't say the Steelers were outcouched, O'Donnell just couldn't stop hitting Dallas DB's in the numbers with his passes.

Not an attempt to turn this into a Cowher love fest, but I fail to see how Cowher has acquired a loser's mentality. One of the biggest differances between Pats and Steelers in the big games has been #12 behind center.

People forget that all three of those QBs made All-Pro with the Steelers.

Cowher can't coach in big games where he's favored. He makes dumb decisions in the crunch, but I think Seattle will put this away early enough where he won't have a chance to blow it.

I think it's a matter of the Steelers gettting ****y when they are favored. Remember them booking their SB reservations before the game with the Pats?
I think the worst thing for them was to be favored versus Seattle. While I think the Steelers are a better team, my gut tells me Seattle pulls it out.
I'm probably wrong (wouldn't be the first time) but........
Just my $0.02,
