Welcome to BTSC’s Friday night open thread:

  1. The Steelers have been assembling their 2026 coaching staff this week. Which reported hire is your favorite so far?
  2. All four AFC North teams have settled on head coaches after three vacancies this offseason. Power rank all four coaches.
  3. The Mike McCarthy hire was widely panned, but his introductory press conference Tuesday seemed to result in a shift in public opinion. Did it change your view of the hire at all?
  4. What’s one thing you’d like to see the new Steelers coaching staff do differently from the old one?
  5. The Pro Bowl is on Tuesday this year. Rate how much you care from “not at all” to “not at all but I might Google it once.”
  6. Tell us about the best coach you ever played for growing up.
