This is not a time to debate Bill Cowher’s credentials. It is a time to celebrate the long time Pittsburgh Steelers’ Head Coach’s selection to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He is the first member of the NFL’s Centennial Class and is one of two coaches who are to be selected by a blue ribbon panel.
Born in Crafton, Pennsylvania, Cowher was given the keys to the Black and Gold following the legendary career of Chuck Noll in 1992. He would go on to a career record of 149-90-1. He led the Steelers to an appearance in Super Bowl XXX where his team fought valiantly but fell to the Dallas Cowboys 27-17.
