Kevin Colbert is THE reason that we got our last two rings (aside from Dick LeBeau). When Cowher was coaching, he did well with Russ Grim on the O-Line and Whisenhunt as the offensive coordinator. Cowher couldn't develop a passing game if his life depended on it (see Kordell Stewart). We won a SB with Cowher and a SB with Tomlin. Both are great coaches, but Cowher did some questionable and simplistic shit. Our front office is where its at.
Front office is totally underrated. If you have someone like Colbert or Pioli or Newsome getting your talent, you can put Lane Kiffin in at head coach and win a SB.
Colbert came in in 2000 and his first round draft picks have been: Plaxico Burress, Casey Hampton, Kendall Simmons, Troy Polamalu, Ben Roethlisberger, Heath Miller, Santonio Holmes, Lawrence Timmons, Rashard Mendenhall, Ziggy Hood, and Maurkice Pouncey. Dude is a God.
