I agree 100% with you but the thing is that Bill Cowher had done absolutely nothing in the playoffs ever as well but one season it all clicked for him and he won a superbowl.

Cowher was just as bad as Marty if not worst come playoff time.

What is the team's track record for coaching hires and fires? I don't know about SD, but Pitt. has only ever had 3 coaches in team history if I'm not mistaken.

Actually, it's not even close. And come on, man, you're way too smart to make blanket statements like that without checking up on them first.

Here's the word:

Cowher: 15 years coaching, 12-9 in playoffs, two Super Bowl trips, one win.
In Cowher's 15 years, he reached the playoffs 10 times. Of those 10 times, he won his first-round game 8 times.

Schottenheimer: 21 years coaching, 5-13 in playoffs, zero Super Bowl trips. He made the playoffs 13 of those 21 years, but lost in the first round in 9 of those 13 years. Between the Chiefs, Redskins and Chargers, he has made the playoffs just three times in the past nine years, and hasn't won a playoff game since 1993.

well I meant that they would always choke and never win the big one...

I knew Cowher had a better record and had made the Superbowl in the past vs the cowboys. I was kind of vague about it I guess...

Take away Cowhers 4 playoffs wins last year when they won the big one he was below .500 as well, still not as bad as Marty but still below .500.
