The Pittsburgh Steelers have hired Mike McCarthy as their next head coach, the team announced Saturday.

McCarthy, a Pittsburgh native, will replace Mike Tomlin, who stepped down after a 19-season run leading the Steelers. Tomlin was the longest-tenured head coach in the NFL before he resigned.

Creative DirectorGood hire. He was 125-77-2 in 13 years in Green Bay that included a Superbowl win. And he was 49-35 in Dallas too despite that front office always making that job harder. I get it’s not flashy, but if they get a semblance of a positive QB they’ll be as good as any team in that division. But that’s not always so easy. And he can’t have all that many years left. Again, good hire.

Randy OrtonAs a lifelong Steelers fan it’s hard to get excited about giving a third chance to a two-time failed head coach who’s 62. Lately they’ve seem more dedicated to going 9-8 every year than winning Super Bowls.

Ad AgencyMcCarthy seems like a two-year bridge to whatever is next. Steelers are rebuilding apparently. He's the safest option available.
