    I guess I am in the minority because I am fine with this. I didnt really like any of the choices, MM included, but at least he is offensive minded, so there is a chance the offense won't be like watching paint dry like it has been for so many years.

    Do you think Mike McCarthy at age 62 is going to out work a hungry 36 year old
    Coach wanting to make a name for himself? C'mon we can't make this up.

    What a demoralizing hire… I hope it works, obviously, but man… it took an exciting time to be a fan and kicked me straight in the nuts.

    Is this a ploy to make Tomlin look better. :) But yeah exact thought I was just having. Maybe the chants were wrong, should have been Fire Rooney. WE WERE WRONG!!!!

    Eh, not the most exciting hire, but atleast he's been around and has been a HC before.

    Like others have mentioned, let's hope he brings in a good OC and DC.

    I'm looking foward to see what he can do with the team. It can't be any worse than what we've watched the past 10 seasons.

    I wouldn't be surprised if they trade for Dak Prescott.

    More specifically he is not afraid to let the quarterback throw the ball

    Most of the coaches of this generation have similar playoff records either at .500 or a few games better:
    Harbaugh
    McDermott
    McCarthy
    Payton

    Probably had more to do with Art wanting to win now and hire a proven winner at HC.

    From 15 yrs ago?
    Make it make sense Cali
    Once again, I said this a week ago
    I along with a lot of other Steelers fans need to apologize to
    Mike Tomlin
    This very well can be a Rooney caused problem

    McCarthy is the only head coach to lose in the wild card round as the number 2 seed
