Steelers hiring McCarthy

Only because they want to. its not the same thing and you know it regarding the level of interest that would be from teams imo.
And McCarthy didn't want to sit out? He interviewed with the Bears and declined an interview with the Saints.
 
And you are good at being a dick congrats.

And I thought you were smart enough to understand a virtual interview is nothing special.

But you want hard to be right I know….sorry the process gets a F grade.

We will see how smart you look when all of my concerns come true.
Were you on these virtual interviews? I sure wasn’t. You can’t honestly grade the process without knowing how the actual process truly went. None of us can. What the NFL owners know about these guys is far different than what we know about these guys. I am not jumping up and down with the choice but I am also not going to jump off the Clemente bridge over it. There were far worse choices to be made and until we see the whole staff it isn’t worth getting upset.
 
Mccarthy fits the win now philosophy that Rooney has. He gives them the best chance to win in 2026.
Not saying I like it but I do understand it
 
He was hired to fix a woeful offense, not a longterm fix. You want Steeler fans to curl up in the fetal position but it ain't happening and YOU are the one that's mad.

59 posts in 12 years, lmao.
As if how much he posts makes his points any more or less valid…

piss off clown

I think I can speak for the board in saying we all wish you’d post that little too.
 
Oh now its the rooneys being too tight,, thats why Mike mccarthy is a bad hire,,,,,, give me a break.
We will see what the coaching staff looks like under McCarthy…if it’s still smaller than the average staff and the quality of it is poor, that’s two straight coaches doing it and you half to ask who is at the root of that…

It is an initial screening process that yielded no in person interviews. Outside of the Rooney rule and Mike. Which one of the Rooney Rule options didn’t have a virtual.

Oh I damn sure can honestly grade it. A quick process with extremely limited options. You can buy in if you wish your option, but I know it was insufficient because they already had their man picked out.

I will let individual posters decide if they are getting upset but sure nobody is jumping off a bridge.

At the same time nobody should mistake this process with one that was thorough. Far from it.

Far worse choices shouldn’t be the gold standard of measurement it should be a process that takes an in depth look at its choices and picks the best candidate.

Knowing they didn’t formally interview Klint or Nate, etc. I can 100 percent feel confident their agenda isn’t the same as mine.

You seriously think some other team was going to scoop Mike McCarthy up if the Steelers didnt?? I mean if you had to put something of value on it??

I am not saying you aren’t right but they also may be privy to things we don’t know about some of these candidates. We are not the only team not hiring them. Unless we are in the room where it happens it is all conjecture.

? We are well versed with who was available and who they didn’t interview as well as the extremely quick process.

Isn’t that enough knowledge ?

Again without knowing what they already I am not trying to judge it. How much preparation did they already have? A lot, some I doubt it is none. The Rooneys are well connected. Again I won’t say you aren’t right. I think the league schedule also played a factor right or wrong. Give your coach as much draft and free agency prep as possible. We have big decisions to make.
