Decade
of Power: The Pittsburgh Steelers in the Cowher Era: From the Pages of
the Pittsburg H Post-Gazette
by Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Book Description: The Steelers had to find a man to replace the only
coach in NFL history to win four Super Bowl championships. Less than a
month later the Steelers settled on a native son, Crafton native and Carlynton
High School graduate Bill Cowher, and gave him an assignment that was as
simple as it was awesome: Revive one of the league's cornerstone franchises
and return it to the glory of the 1970s when Noll's black and gold ruled
the world of pro football. It didn't take long for Steelers fans to realize
that Cowher was the right man for the job.
His team immediately reflected his own thundering, swaggering personality.
The Steelers took chances and played with a renewed vigor that caught the
NFL by surprise. Cowher's first team gave Pittsburgh its first AFC Central
championship in eight years and he was named NFL coach of the year for
1992. The 11-5 record that season was the Steelers' best since their last
trip to the Super Bowl in January 1980.
And the winning didn't stop there. Cowher took the Steelers to pro football's
pinnacle - Super Bowl XXX - in the 1995 season, this despite stumbling
to a 3-4 start and losing defensive star Rod Woodson for the season to
a torn knee ligament in the opening game. At 38, Cowher became the youngest
coach to lead his team to a Super Bowl and, despite a less-than-satisfying
outcome against Dallas in the Super Bowl, he had firmly established himself
as one of the league's premier coaches.
Ten years into his reign, Cowher remains at the top of the game. After
a three-year absence from the playoffs, the Steelers returned to prominence
in 2001 and came within one win of playing again in the Super Bowl. And
Cowher reminded Steelers fans not to count him out - or count story-of-the-year
ballots - before his team has its final say.
