On April 29th, Hall of Fame running back to Rome, Betis is hyped about the Pittsburgh Steelers, hiring Mike McCarthy as their new head coach. He says it's the game changer because McCarthy's all about offense, and the Steelers have been stuck in neutral on that side of the ball for the last three years. McCarthy's got a solid track record building up quarterbacks like his new projects, third round pick Drew Aller and Will Howard. His teams in Dallas were lighting up scoreboards, and Betis believes that it'll push the Steelers into a fresh era of scoring. Fans and insiders see this as a big upgrade over past coordinators, like Arthur Smith, Matt Canada, and Randy Fickner, who couldn't get the offense. Clicking. Betis points out the real issue was lacking talent, but now they're loading up. The team grabbed weapons like Y receiver Michael Pittman Jr., running back Rico Doudel, and second round Whiteout, Jeremy Bernard. They also beefed up the line with first round pick, Maxi Hanakor, own third round Jennings Dunker. If Aaron Rogers comes back, Betis thinks McCarthy's history with him from Green Bay could unlock

the best version yet, putting the Steelers on track for elite status.
