You just have to make sure you aren’t painting the barn with a broad brush. You would need to at least get her permission.
 
Ill say this. I myself am not a scheme guy. I know enough. But if my team was up to me.....we'd be ******. But like Tomlin I know how to lead and I do know talent. But unlike Tomlin I got guys who do know scheme and technique. So I guess Im a similar fraud. But won't be unmasked.🤣

This time of year is when expectations go crazy.
Nothing but positive stories coming out of various camps. Rookie deal, otas . Football in shorts.

I fall for it every year. I always try and temper expectation, but I always get hyped up.
Their will be a ton of articles about how great Allar or Howard looks, And I will think they are both superstars in the making

As long as dudes aren’t driving 110, snorting coke off hookers **** with a gun under the seat causing them to get pulled over and then they blow an acl getting out of the car it’s good news

The rookies are all still in the honeymoon zone

I fall for it Every year…we are Charlie Brown lining up the kick

"Obviously I am a pedigreed purveyor of the flim flam..if you will. Now, I've decided to drink wine and stop smashing grapes and the Steelers legacy..if you will, by joining the team here at NBC.

When you have black and gold paint you paint the training facility red...obviously. I want to first of all congratulate Mike McCarthy on succeeding me as the new Steelers coach..Mike McCarthy..man...there are only 32 of us in this business at any one time. I respect that dude. He had his team very prepared for SB 45.

I had my guys ready by playing Phil Collins " In the Air Tonight" on the plane flight to Dallas because nothing inspires toughness and manliness like Phil Collins. We lost to him and his bunch because the football gods decided Mike's arrow would point up that day. There's nothing mystical about it...if you will..obviously." ----Mike Tomlin Chapter 3 : 'My Quest in Dallas, It Wasn't Cowher's Team!' from his new book " How to Jibber Jabber in the Broadcast Booth for Mo Money"

Sounds more like Emmitt Smiff...

McCarthy gave more details to how he preps, develops and educates a QB (or any player) in one damn media availability spot than Mikey T did in his entirety too long career. 🤯

It’s like he has a laid out plan to maximize talent and he is implementing the system towards said development 🤯

I guarantee this “new” approach will get more done within the given practice session times. The teacher has entered the classroom, now it’s on the students to learn the subjects.

He has five playbooks! The playbooks aren’t all plays (some are concept or terminology playbooks)
Ffs almost 20 years in MikeyT had 5 plays!!!

What a needed breath of fresh air.
Hearing this press conference has me all in on the young guns and let’s see how MM can mold them into. We all know the chipped and cracking piece of concrete will be back soon enough though.

The players probably needed a breath of fresh air as well.
 
I'm cautiously optimistic. five playbooks means a lot of thinking and a lot of thinking means playing slower. At least initially.
 
I was not a fan of the McCarthy hire. I did not think it was awful, but i was hoping for someone young, hungry, and innovative. McCarthy does have a very good offensive mind, but the defenses have had issues. Any defensive changes have to be better than what we have been trotting out lately. On offense I expect big improvements on the line and scheme. Just hope we have a QB that is somewhat competent
