McCarthy interviewed after Colts game

[Jmac]

Per David Newton (dubious at best), says M.McCarthy was interviewed after the Colts loss. He is available to interview and looks like Tepper brought him in to talk.

So he apparently is on the list. What u think? I am not sold at all about this. I guess since he has strong ties to Pittsburgh and is considered more of an offensive minded guy, Tepper may like that. ESPN Adam Schefter also reporting this.

 

Another retread...what u got?

Thanks for the info, but read 4 threads down for people's takes on it.

Why would it matter if he has ties to Pittsburgh? You think Tepper is going thru his list and checking off names that aren’t from the area or have never worked with the Steelers?
 

This better be nothing but a courtesy interview , just curious to see what Mike has to offer. If he gets the job this team will continue to be the trash heap you see now.

To be fair, the thread with this info in it is not well titled.  So, I can see why this thread was made.

He has a ring. Got ran out of Green Bay for not winning it every other year. He regularly was 9-7 or better and in the conversation. Just the year we went 7-8-1, he was 1 play from that SB...

RR's ties to San Diego were obvious---Buffalo might have strong feelings about Beane's ties to Carolina....

Tepper needs to interview as many potential candidates as early as possible to pick their brains on our players,other players,coaches,schemes, etc. He has a head start on building an information base from a variety of sources and should talk to as many as he can before he makes any decision.

I don’t want him, too similar to Ron.

[Khaki Lackey]

If we hired this guy, it would be Siefert all over again.

With the same idiot GM bringing in bad QBs lol

[MHS831]

He won 61% (nearly 2 of 3) games as a head coach for 12 years and he was 10-8 (55%) in the post season. 
Rodgers is a difficult person to work with--his own family does not like him.

However, a coach that wins 61% of his games with Aaron Rodgers and Brett Farve as QBs....and has 1 ring in 12 years....is that good?

New coach is supposed to be given a say in the next front office hire.

McCarthy might suggest Browns assistant GM - and son of longtime Packers GM Ron Wolf - Eliot Wolf

Not to mention, has any Super Bowl winning retread every won the big one elsewhere? None that I can think of.

Not many super bowl winning head coaches in the Market, would certainly consider him over any college coach or an assistant.
