– Rodgers connection: McCarthy and Rodgers’ long-time partnership could be a game-changer if they team up again in Pittsburgh. 🔗 QB-Coach chemistry has big fan appeal.
– The analyst take: Not everyone buys in—Dan Orlovsky warns this duo could be the worst move for Pittsburgh, arguing it could keep the team stuck in quarterback-search limbo. ⚠️💬
– Rodgers status: At 42, he’s not-eyeing retirement, but a Steelers reunion isn’t firmly on the radar. Reports hint Rodgers appreciates what a Tomlin-McCarthy era could mean, as speculation swirls with Tomlin stepping down. 🌀
