mccarthy at least gets to hire his own coaches.
tomlin wasn’t allowed to
This is entirely false
He is absolutely correct
From Tomlin’s initial hire through Haley and Dick Butler, his coordinators were chosen by the FO
Lebeau to Butler
Arians to Haley
not until those coordinators were gone, was Tomlin given authority to choose his guys
Which we know, sucked

If McCarthy came in to clean house, trade off the older assets and start a true rebuild I could get behind that. The issue is they feel like they are close and are probably going to bring back Rodgers and more FAs and be stuck in the middle for the next 5 years.
Whats to say that isnt the plan. He's in his mid 60s. Every other coach the Steelers have hired has been MUCH younger, Do we really think theyre gonna let McCarthy coach into his 70s?
Lolololz
Couch McCarthy is 62
He will be here at 73
Zero doubt in my mind
Wanna bet? We can go big too.

So “zero doubt in my mind” quickly turned into you putting “I’m a chickenshit coward” on tape.
That was super predictable.
Bawk bawk.
