I could not think of a less exciting pick than McCarthy. I'm surprised people here are so gung ho for him. Seems to be a high floor low ceiling coach. The derek carr of coaches if you will.
He's certainly not exciting, but the guy has won a Super Bowl, been in 4 NFC Championship games, has a .608 career winning percentage, has been in the playoffs 13 of his 18 years as a HC, and was 12-5 three of the last four years. How is that a low ceiling? Seems like an incredibly low risk hire which isn't exciting, but it's not a low ceiling.
And I'm not sure how that's anything like Carr who hasn't won anything anywhere.
