Can you believe how fast coaches come and go in the NFL these days? Like, I remember when Bill Cowher was coaching the Steelers back in the day, it seemed like he was there forever! Now we've got Mike McCarthy as the new head coach and I'm curious to see if he can lead the team to another Super Bowl win 🤔. And on a related note, have you been watching any good NFL games lately? The Bills were looking pretty strong before they lost that last game 😐. Do you think the Seahawks have what it takes to make it all the way to the playoffs?
 
man, the Steelers are like, what's up with all these coaching changes? it's like they're trying to win a award for most coaches in one team lol 💥 4 heads of coach since the moon landing? that's like me trying to count my socks every morning 🤣. I'm just hoping they don't have to start giving out 'i survived the Steelers' t-shirts as parting gifts to their new head coach 👕
 
omg, it's like they're just spinning coaches out there 🔄🏈 i mean, the steelers go through 4 coaches since '69 and now they got mike mccarthy... maybe he can bring some stability to that team? 🤔 but what about aden durde at seattle? how did a british dude end up leading them to the playoffs 🇬🇧💪
 
omg i cant believe its already 4 head coaches in pittsburgh since moon landing lol what happened to the steelers?? 😂 didnt they just want a coach who can bring them back to glory?? im still rooting for mcmahon tho he was on fire with the packers and beating the steeler 13-10 still gives me chills 💥
