I like Mularkey, but...

...I wish we would have waited for Weiss. He's a genius.

[The Natrix]

Agreed. I was just telling I guy at work today that I wish Weiss would've been hired. Oh well... I do like Mularkey. He seems aight.

[Tatonka]

geez.. at least give mularkey a chance.. tom clements might be a genius too.

right?

I would have preferred Weiss. I'm not complaining about Mularkey, but I prefer Weiss.

Agreed. TD passed on Fox and Lewis, and we know how that turned out.

Still, I'm willing to give MM a shot. Until we see him in the regular season we really don't know how it is going to go. We could be surprised.

Or pissed.......again.

TD didn't pass on Lewis..get the facts straight. Lewis passed on us.

[Throne Logic]

Just 'cuz Weis is a good play builder doesn't imply he would be a good Head Coach. It's not all game planning. There's a lot more too the job.

Wow, some people are selectively blind to the facts.

Lewis spit on TD when offered the job!!!!

Fox didn't want it either because he knew the team was in rebuilding mode.

[TigerJ]

For my 3,000th post (pretty pathetic beside LOG and Philster I know), maybe Mularkey is this year's John Fox or Marvin Lewis. Personally, I don't like to look back and second guess team decisions, at least not until after they turn sour. LOL

[The Spaz]

Wow would you let the coaching staff coach there 1st game damn????

[lordofgun]

Wow would you let the coaching staff coach there 1st game damn????

Yes I will. I was simply expressing my feelings that I would have preferred Weiss. Is there a problem with that?

[Earthquake Enyart]

I like how Weis looks. He's edgy.

Agreed... Lets let MM and crew get a couple under their belts before we start screaming for a replacement.. LoL.. but no i understand what the guys are saying... We got who we got because of TD and i honestly dont think it was a horrible choice.. but time will tell as with all things...

EDGY.. LoL..

just 2 comments for me.... 1 positive, 1 neg.

1- (pos) Wasn't GW a "genious" on defensive schemes? Not passing judgement on Weiss, just trying to point out that being a great coordinator doesn't necessarily mean being a great HC.

and

2- (neg) Now, I watch a LOT of football. I admit Pittsburgh is not high on my list of MUST see game, unless they are playing Baltimore. Now, I can say, of what I saw at least, in 3 years of Mularkey being the OC in Pitts, I never once though "man this is a great Offense... who is coaching it?"....

2b- (just to not sound too negative, i'll play devil's advocate to myself)... BUT I think that Pittsburgh lacked any TRUE weapons on Offense that could amekt hem really impressive... i mean making the playoffs with Kordell Stewart as your QB MUST count for something. And their O players developed very nicely while he was there (Ward, and Burress for a while was.)
