It's very Steelers-y in the way he talks about football, and he does command the room in that way.
But if you're asking me of the candidates they've interviewed right now, of the guys that I know about, the one guy that I think is going to command a room more than anyone else as a leader or CEO type, it would be Anthony Weaver.
Well, I mentioned him earlier.
I think Udinski from Jacksonville is a name that I would bring in at least.
I can see Sean McDermott being a guy that you would bring in.
I'm just not sure he's perfect for the Steelers' drive right now.
We're kind of talking about a guy that failed to get over the hump where he was at with Josh Allen.
And so you're kind of just speed running back the Tomlin stuff there.
You need a culture builder.
I think McDermott's a great hire.
I don't think the Steelers need a culture builder, though.
I think they need someone โ
that has a fresh take on schematic football while also maintaining that CEO type that Tomlin was.
I'm not sure McDermott brings that totally to the table.
I would have brought him in for an interview, yeah.
I would have brought Salah in for an interview too.
I would have brought both of them in.
But they obviously now are filled.
I think Stefanski would have been โ if you're talking about an offensive coach, would have been an interesting candidate because of what he has โ he has experience working with young quarterbacks.
His system is quarterback friendly.
