One guest this week, but certainly an incredibly well-known person when it comes to the

Bill Cowher is a studio analyst for CBS as the NFL today.

1:04.8

Bill Cowher has been part of CBS since February 2007.

1:07.8

And I'll ask him about this.

1:08.6

I feel like I can remember even writing a story about Bill

1:12.4

Coward joining CBS. It seems like yesterday, but clearly it's not. The NFL today, and this is one of the

1:20.4

reasons I wanted to have Bill on, is they're traveling to Buffalo to do a live pregame show from

1:25.7

Highmark Stadium on Sunday, starting at 12 p.m. Obviously, it is the game

1:31.6

He's definitely going to go back to coaching at some point. And I think I've proven you wrong and everybody else wrong. This is my 18th year, and I'm still standing. You have. What is this? Why is this guy staying in this? Does he not want to go back to coaching? Yeah. Now, I think I stopped finally writing those stories, Bill. You've convinced me. You did. You did. All right. So for someone in your position, you know, you're mostly, you know, you do studio stuff. You're inside a nice air condition controlled place, right? You're doing this every weekend. You guys watch the games in probably some kind of very, very nice facility.
