McCarthy interviewed after Colts game


Jmac

Recommended Posts

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?

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.

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.

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?

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

With the same idiot GM bringing in bad QBs lol

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.

    • As I said less than 10 minutes into the game, Boston looks nothing like we're used to seeing. Regardless, any curb-stomping of the Bruins is welcome.  The scorers all got the glory tonight, but all 6 D-men had excellent games. Across the board- Gost, Orlov, Chatty, Walker and, of course, Slavin & Burns.
    • I just tried a few mock draft simulators and this is the only way lol. Nothing else makes sense. 
    • No, biggest weakness is pass rush, but I don't think there is a blue chip can't miss DE prospect to take at #1 this year, same as with QB.  But beyond that, moving forward, yea WR is a pretty damn big weakness. We have 1 game this season over 224 yards passing and just traded away our best WR (who wasn't going to re-sign here anyways).  That WR no longer on the team was also the only player we've had this year who had over 78 yards receiving in a game.  So again, yea, WR is one of our biggest weaknesses even right now, let alone moving into the future. As I just said in my other post, I love Legette, but he's not going to be a Top 5-10 WR type of guy, Top 15-20 I can see, I think he can be a good #1 WR or an elite #2. After that, what do we have for the future?  Thielen isn't part of it, sure as hell isn't going to be Mingo, and as much as we all like Coker, in no world is Coker as our #2 to Legette as the #1 going be considered as "having weapons" at WR, even with Brooks and Sanders. But put someone like T-Mac into that group, who I genuinely think is going to be a Top 5 WR in this league for a long time, and it changes things.  A Top 5 WR with Legette/Coker as the 2/3, along with Brooks and Sanders, has the potential to be one of the best set of offensive weapons in the league if they reach their potential.
