Bruce Arians

Read that he wants to be the guy to bring the franchise back to glory.

Said when he was here the year they went to the playoffs that this football town was like nowhere else in the NFL.

Just wish he was 10 years younger. I still don't hate the idea. I'd love to go with a young guy but it's really risky bringing in someone brand new to NFL coaching.... boom or bust. I'm sick of bust....

Arians comes in brings in a young up and coming OC and prepares for him to take over after 2 seasons .....perfect

LBC mike

He would be the most solid HC we have had for years.

A lot of us wanted him when he went to Arizona. He was in charge in Indy when Luck was drafted I believe.

I think it’s a good sign for our team going forward. That’s for sure.

I don't mind this scenario but I would need to see who the OC is first. Like I said in the other thread - not entirely certain Arians and Mayfield mesh.

Solid for sure, like the scenario as mentioned above

I wish that was a headline on NFL.com such that everyone would be aware of that thought.

--- When he was here as OC everyone was blaming him for the team's lack of success. And I was like, "What? What has Ariens done wrong." But nope, we ran him out of town like a common Pygmy.

I am seeing nothing on the internet about this other than some old reports.

My # 1 Choice! He is 66 but could hire a great staff. Worth serious consideration,IMHO!

Yeah, he has already been measured for a coffin, so why not hire him? It's not like he has anything else going on.

[edit]

I liked him when he was here. Hopefully he still has gas left in the tank. Even more hopefully that it's not just feelings of nostalgia. Sam Rutigliano is another favorite of mine.

Bernie liked him, I know that. But honestly, do you guys see him having enough gas in the tank? As much as I wanted Cowher in 1995, I can't see him giving up the soft life to jump back into the cage. I thought Gruden would be a dud for the same reason. Why not give Kosar the gig? Seriously, if we are being honest, he couldn't do any worse.

I would have let kosar be the QB coach ages ago.

I listen to BKs pregame show and when he does a local thing. He’s still sharp and knows football. Hues record wouldn’t get a challenge from Bernie

There's got to be a reason he hasn't been offered or accepted any coaching job in the NFL ever. Think about that.

I just don’t think he wants to coach. He could do some consulting or he prefers to do media and other ventures

I don't think Bernie would want to be HC, and don't think he would be successful at it. But...he would make an excellent qb coach or OC.

Dick Mellon

He got Tim Couch killed; let him do it again to Baker.

I hate the guy. I was so happy that the Steelers finally got rid of him and replaced him with Todd Haley.

His offenses never run the ball well and his QB's often lead the NFL in sacks. Tim Couch, Ben Roethlisberger and Carson Palmer were all either #1 in getting sacked or near the top of the list. He got Tim Couch killed then went to work getting Roethlisberger killed. The Steelers got rid of him for 2 reasons. #1 he did not run the ball effectively and #2 Ben was getting sacked and hit too much.

Bruce is in poor health and every so often gets rushed to the hospital for an undisclosed reason.

I thought that he retired because he was going to die.

Fùck Bruce Arians!
