A Pittsburgh Steelers legend has delivered a stern message to head coach Mike McCarthy, even as McCarthy praised his team's 6-2 start. The comments come in the wake of the Steelers' game against the Green Bay Packers on August 13, 2026, in Pittsburgh, where McCarthy was on the opposing sideline.
McCarthy, who previously coached the Packers from 2006 to 2018, had pointed to the 6-2 record as evidence of progress. The unnamed Steelers great countered that the early record may not tell the full story.
The August 13 matchup was part of the 2026 NFL preseason schedule. Further details of the legend's message were not disclosed.
