Pat McAfee maintains that the Pittsburgh Steelers will expect the new head coach to build a physical brand of football that aligns with the expectations of the AFC North.

“I assume they're going to hire somebody that understands that it's a physical brand of football. That is what Pittsburgh is expecting. And AFC North football, that should be what you should be trying to build to keep up and win your division.”

Chad Johnson views the Cleveland Browns organization as dysfunctional.

“Listen, as much as as much as I love my Bengals, I've always been an advocate for the Cleveland Browns players, not the organization in itself. They're players, especially, you know, Denzel Ward, Miles Garrett, Shador Sanders, Grant Del. You you know how I am. If you've watched this show long enough”

Shannon Sharpe believes that coaches are avoiding the Cleveland Browns because they lack autonomy from the current management.

“I agree. I I think the thing is is that a head coach goes in there and they know Andrew Barry still has control. Most of the time coaches want to come in, they want to bring their own general manager. With that being said, and then there's a direct like I don't actually get an opportunity to talk to”

Darius Butler argues that the Pittsburgh Steelers will give a new head coach time to establish their own regime and find a quarterback, following their established organizational pattern.

“I think they'll definitely give them time. I think that's kind of been their MO.”

A head coach's first meeting with a new team is the most critical opportunity to define and enforce the team's culture.

“Well, I think that's the most important thing you do. uh because that that's the number one thing you're trying to establish is the culture of how we're going to play as a team whether it's intangibles that you want to talk about”
