Depends on whether Jerruh's energy and capacity for meddlin' can be re-directed toward boxing matches and tractor pulls at his new rec center or not. A serious coach--one who could actually accomplish something--would not put up with Jerruh's meddlin'. Parcells came on the premise that he would be calling the shots, and as long as Jerruh stayed out of the way, Parcells actually managed to turn the ship around and move the team back in the direction of credibility. Then Jerruh decided he wanted to be involved again and started giving Parcells the T.O.-enema. Now they're stuck with Wade Phillips and his perpetual clueless hangdog expression.

I don't think Cowher is interested in gettin screwed by Jerruh. (At least not for less than $10MM/year.) Cowher IS said to be interested in the NYGiants position if-and-when they decided to pull the trigger on Tom Coughlin. Giants have a well-regarded ownership and GM in place, each of whom stays in their own lane. Seems like it would be easier for Cowher to go to a lmore-traditional, ess-toxic situation like the Giants than to come dance with ol' debbil Jerrruh. But $10MM/year would be a very enticing tune.
