    Arians was let go for being arrogant and stubborn

    Bad career move

    Plus his offense was fun between the 20’s but sucked in the red zone

    Losing doesn't guarantee you a franchise QB or that you'll be a true super bowl contender later, but it gives you a much better chance.This is the point

    I don't recall the Bills, Ravens, or Chiefs losing to get their franchise QB :shrug:.

    Everyone on here knows my feelings on Tomlin, but even I think Tomlin is probably a better coach than McCarthy.

    I don't think this will end well for us fans. I couldn't imagine a more disappointing hire. God I hope they realize the error of their ways after 5 years. I know it won't be sooner than that, but surely he won't be here for 10-20 years right?

    Arians was maybe arrogant and stubborn but he was also a winner.He even make the playoffs as the Browns OC in 2002

    You are right but I just hope the steelers don't think they can compete with the best next season

    The OC and DC will make the deal

    You can squint and see the Steekers reasoning with the hire. If the most important thing is identify and develop a QB, Shula really isn't relevant.

    Puts you from choosing between a guy with a track record and 2 or 3 guys with only a bit of experience and a belief they can do it.

    Like I still think it's a bad decision but I can at least see how they got there. Took a day but MAYBE this isn't completely moronic.
