Top 20 Steelers Wins in the Bill Cowher Era

Bill Cowher

When Bill Cowher was hired as the Steelers head coach in 1992, he didn’t exactly come in without a lot of expectations. All he was being called upon to do was to come in and replace a Hall of Fame coach who had won four NFL titles for the city during the 1970’s.

15 years later, Cowher put the Steelers in plenty of chances to add to the trophy case in the Steel City, and while it took till 2005, he was finally able to add another Lombardi, as the team won Super Bowl XL in February of 2006 beating the Seattle Seahawks 21-10 in Detroit.

Cowher though infused the Steelers organization with a new type of fire that was not seen under Noll. Not that Noll didn’t care, he just didn’t have that fiery type of emotion that Cowher seemed to show week in and week out, even when the team wasn’t all that good.

There were plenty of great wins in those 15 seasons under Bill Cowher, and today we try to take 20 of them and present them as best we can – so feel free to fire back, but here’s our “Top 20 Steelers Wins in the Bill Cowher Era.

    Matt, I seriously think you’ve overlooked the 1993 MNF game vs the AFC back to back defending Conference Champs, Buffalo Bills. It was a statement game for Bill Cowher’s Steelers who were eliminated in the play-offs by the Bills @ Three Rivers. Final score : 24-0.

    Hi Anthony,

    Thanks for the comment – the 93 Bills game was on the long original list for sure and was one of the last ones to get taken off to get the list to 20 games. I think the reason I stayed away from it was due to the aftermath of that game. The following week they were beat up bad by the Broncos, and then lost the next Sunday night to the Oilers. Overall after beating the Bills the team went 3-4 and had to claw their way into the playoffs. Just seemed like the team was never the same after that win, which again is kind of why I kept it off the list. Thank you again for the comment!
