Former Pittsburgh Steelers coach Bill Cowher, who rejected a chance to become head coach of the Browns over the weekend, is not going to interview for the head coaching position of the New York Jets, according to multiple sources.
Cowher, according to a source, has been contacted by the Jets. Although he is interested in the Jets job, he told them he won't be a candidate because he would like to have the ability to bring in his own personnel person. Jets owner Woody Johnson plans to keep Mike Tannenbaum as his general manager after firing Eric Mangini as head coach Monday.
With Tannenbaum as the general manager, Cowher is willing to pass on the Jets opportunity, stay in broadcasting for another year and wait to come back to coaching in 2010.
Cowher has told friends the Jets job interested him for several reasons. First, Cowher would love to be coaching in the New York market. Second, two of his daughters are either going to school or working in the New York-New Jersey area.
Cowher does plan to coach in 2010. In 2009, though, he was only willing to return if every situation was right for him. He wanted to have a two-year break from coaching to be with family and recharge his energy.
Over the weekend, Cowher met with Browns owner Randy Lerner, who asked him what it would take financially for him to be the Browns head coach. Having a close relationship with the Rooney family in Pittsburgh and still wanting more time with the family, Cowher didn't give Lerner a price and said no.
He recently extended his television contract for another season.
and this is why I think his most likely destination would be Detroit because they'd give him full control but I don't think he'd find that situation all that appealing to be honest..

It put up a Congratulations to the team that won on the league page, but it doesn't say what tiebreaker it used. It did the same in the other league. I'm guessing it used total points during the regular season

The two situations don't even compare. He said no to the Browns on the spot. He's willing to talk to the Jets about the opening.

Ever since he retired, he has wanted to have complete control over the organization. The Jets are clearly not doing that so I don't see how him meeting with them (so they can say well we will let you help make draft decisions and all that bullshit) is going to change the situation much. Yes, he actually has a chance to go the Jets, but just because he is meeting with them means nothing. That is all I was trying to say.

CJ, in the article it says they are considering to let Cowher hire whoever he wants as GM.

Cowher would be a pretty nice hire for the Jets. Im more interested to see who goes to DET. They have a huge job ahead.
