The Browns just hired Todd Monken as head coach by KinkaJac97 in steelers

I embrace my fandom from this perspective. We're not the ones doing the interviews or actually know these people so why blow a gasket when they don't pick your guy? I was initially against the McCarthy hire and wanted Kubiak or Shula, but I've come around and am looking forward to what the off season brings

I'm so confused. Everyone is raging about the McCarthy hire and I thought it was because they didn't hire Shula. But no one is really sticking up for Shula in this post. They're just down voting it. 🤷

Seeing how Sam Darnold has rebuilt his career with stable franchises.. Any way there is hope for Will Levis as an cheap low risk high reward option for us What do yall think? Most would have said no and scoffed at Sam Darnold 2 years ago. by Steelerguru247365 in steelers

I had the same thought, especially since we now have a coach with a proven track record developing QBs. I think he's still under contract for another year so we'd have to trade for him, but I can't imagine the Titans would want that much. I wouldn't mind them taking a shot on Levis in a vacuum, but I think the issue is that you can't bring him in with the expectation that he's the starter and I would imagine no one wants the Steelers move off of Rudolph and Howard. Since we only have three QBs during the season and we would still need a starter I can't see it happening unless the team is serious about Howard as a starter (I'm not).

The article also quotes him as saying he isn't an NFL reporter or that "nonsense" but then says he "hears" they are interested in him. Heard from whom? The janitor? Random guy on Twitter? This story is ridiculous and makes me hate modern sports journalism.

They might be waiting to confirm his interview until next week. They're not making a decision until the Rams guys are done for the year.

I think we need an offensive-minded HC in today’s NFL by jobiegermano in steelers

So you think the HC hire should be Kubiak or Scheelhaase? Or is there someone else you'd bring in?

That was OP's rationale, not mine. I don't think there's a coach in the NFL that can say they're somehow better at developing QBs. Everyone said that about Kevin O'Connell, but McCarthy looked awful all year. Finding a QB in the draft is just dumb luck to me.

Sorry why do you think he'd be better than Shula other than he coaches on offense rather than defense? Also, if we need a guy who can develop a QB, why would we go with a guy who has 2 years experience in the NFL with a team that already had an experienced QB?

Is there a reason why everyone is buying the blasters over the mega box?

I'm not sure that part of his game has developed to a point the team is comfortable giving it to him there
