Report: Steelers hiring Mike McCarthy as next head coach! [View all]
There are a lot of critical viewpoints on the internet over this rumor. Not sure what the owners were thinking, but they could have done much better...
Former Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is joining another historic NFL team.
The Pittsburgh Steelers plan to hire McCarthy as their next head coach, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported on Saturday, per sources. The team later announced they've verbally agreed to terms with McCarthy.
McCarthy, 62, takes over the helm in Pittsburgh after Mike Tomlin stepped down after 19 seasons with the organization on Jan. 13.
McCarthy, who spent this past season away from the sidelines, becomes the 17th head coach in Steelers history and the fourth since 1969. The Steelers previously had Chuck Noll (1969-1991), Bill Cowher (1992-2006) and Tomlin (2007-2025) coaching consistency that provided the organization with stability for the last couple of decades. The Steelers hope McCarthy, who grew up in Pittsburgh, can do the same.
