Football General Talk

[Corn king 60]

Mike is originally from Pittsburgh. Thats all I was getting at. So most locals will be pleased with the hire.

No the locals are not okay based on what I’m seeing.
I’m a little over a hour east of Pittsburgh and the internet isn’t very pleased. Most where thinking Chris Shula or someone on the younger side just like when they hired the last three coaches.but as someone who will be 66 very soon I’m all for seniors getting employed.

Got some draft picks this year, if they play cards right could improve the D at least.

The Parsons trade wasn't a bad move. Even without his injury. mtmuley

 

[mtmuley]

So did Tomlin. Tomlin’s overall record 193-114-2. McCarthy’s overall record 174-112-2. Like I said, not an upgrade.

Not unless one and done in the playoffs is ok. Funny. mtmuley

Like McCarthy’s run in Dallas. What makes you think he will ever be any better? Ask the Green Bay fans how they feel about him wasting Rodgers’ career.

Funny. How did Rogers do after? Nothing. Nobody has won in Dallas since Johnson. Always a hot topic to bring up though. mtmuley

Harbaugh and Lamar? There's more comparisons. mtmuley

I’ll bet you a 12 pack of High Life that McCarthy never wins a Super Bowl in Pittsburgh.

I don't care if he does or not. He has one. Just like Tomlin. mtmuley

 

[Southern Elk]

Yep. Allen and McDermott.

 

[mtmuley]

Yep. Allen and McDermott.

Exactly. Not an isolated circumstance. McCarthy didn't waste Roger's career. mtmuley

Do you get the "beer" if you win or if you lose? I think I'd rather lose that one, if the winner takes the beer home.

One of these days treat yourself to a bottle of Miller High Life. Tall blondes as I call them. Maybe during one of the games tomorrow. mtmuley

Not everybody drinks IPAs.

 

[Hammsolo]

And remember. He stepped down. No quarterback, bad offensive line and an aging defense. I don't think McCarthy is a bad coach. 1-1 as far as SB wins with Tomlin. mtmuley

He’s not a bad coach, but he’s stepping into a tough job. They’ve had 3 coaches as long as most of us have been alive. He’s slightly above average for the NFL, but he’ll be the worst they’ve had in a minute.

 

[BrentD]

Not everybody drinks IPAs.

IPAs are not the only alternative. I hardly drink beer anymore, but I like it to be good when I do (or Mexican).

Best of luck to McCarthy. I think it his probably pretty good. But I wouldn't have kicked Tomlin to the curb either.

Rodger’s was the problem too. He’s always been a rough teammate.

 

[Hammsolo]

As a Seahawks fan I am so happy not to be part of the coaching carousel. So stoked to have Macdonald.

 

[Gellar]

Rodger’s was the problem too. He’s always been a rough teammate.

I think the teammates liked him. Look at how many followed him to the Jets and more wanted to come.
