NFL 2025-26 Season - Steelers hire Mike McCarthy

There are teams firing coaches this offseason that I suspect are going to regret their actions in a few years.

That is a true statement every year.

As a lifelong Steelers fan I boo my fellow fans who wanted rid of Tomlin. I’ve always marveled at how his teams have risen above expectations over and over again.

This sux. I detest the Cowboys. Now we get their sloppy seconds. P U

Did anyone really think the Steelers would go for a forward-thinking, bold choice?

When Pittsburgh hired him, Tomlin was a 34 year old who had never been a head coach and had only one year of experience as a coordinator. Cowher was also hired by the Steelers at age 34.

I’m shocked they decided to call 62 year old Mike McCarthy off the couch.

It's almost like he is a temporary "holder"
