I'm starting to think Sporano/Ireland are gonna get 1 more year, but if they dont I think Billick could be a wise choice. He's won a Super Bowl, he's an offensive minded coach and he has a history coaching with Nolan. He wouldn't cost as much as Cowher or Gruden either. (someone suggested this a month or so ago and I think I ridiculed the idea, but now i'd be willing to give him a shot). Thoughts?

Ouch!!! Our payroll would be HUGE! Ross would be forced to charge $1000 per ticket.

It's unusual, but not unheard-of. Mike Martz has been an OC with multiple teams since his days as head coach of the Rams, and Mike Tice, former head coach of the Vikings, is a line coach with the Bears. OK, not the two best examples, but still...
1.) A guy tied to a particular 'System' or 'Type' of team.
We need a coach that can, as part of an organization, take the best talent available and make a competitive football team with it regardless of whether it fits the mold he was last successful in.
2.) A guy who has been a successful head coach named dictator in charge of everything.
He brings in his buddies and makes all GM/Personnel decisions directly or by proxy. Parcells, Jimmy Johnson, need I say more.
As a side note, the buzz here in good ol' NC is that Cowher is talking with the Panthers again. He lives in Raleigh and is rooted in the area (Went to NC state, daughter in Elon College, etc)
