is that he was a huge fan and thinks he knows football. his success at bussiness has never translated to the skins and his meddling actually harms the team.
case in point, we are talent deficient, not "poorly coached" although that is a problem, the real issue is that we lack talent at many key spots, we have never been good at the back end of the draft, we have never been good at finding hidden gems. and frankly the idea that giving pitssburgh our draft picks (which will obviously be good ones for the foreseeable future) to get a coach who has had regular season success in the past 13 years is borderline retarded. we have never stockpiled even decent players, we need every pick we have and we need to find a way to get more. (trade every aging vet)
we will finally have some great draft picks, what we need to do is put all our resources into the scouting department, put a coach in place with proven systems that match what we currently have on the roster and go from there.
I like Bowles as a DC, I think we need to look hard at young OC's and find a solid motivator/team builder type at HC who knows what he knows but more importantly knows what he doesnt know.
also if Bruce doesnt display some serious genius in this draft then he needs to be gone, no if ands or buts. I am only saying that because I doubt snyder will fire him this year anyway, so give him a chance and make sure he knows, this is it, this is for his career.
