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.

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
