The Pittsburgh Steelers have hired just their fourth head coach since 1970.
Chuck Noll, Bill Cowher and Mike Tomlin each had long tenures at the helm in the Steel City, and now it's Mike McCarthy's turn.
McCarthy's hire was reported on Saturday by ESPN's Adam Schefter. He's previously been the head coach of the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys.
Now, he takes over for Mike Tomlin, who led for 19 seasons before stepping away at the end of this season.
McCarthy is quite different than the trio that has preceded him.
When Noll, Cowher and Tomlin were hired, they were each 37 years of age or younger.
McCarthy is 62.

Part of the reason those guys could stick along so long was their relative youth as coaches. They could coach a long time and still not be overly old.
McCarthy is in a different boat, a very experienced head coach but one with a lot more years under his belt.
That doesn't mean it will or won't work. It's just an interesting breaking of the trend.
McCarthy is from Pittsburgh, which certainly gives him bonus points here.
Now, everyone wants to see if he'll bring Aaron Rodgers back to rekindle their relationship from their Packers days.
From there, Pittsburgh will hope to start winning playoff games again, something that hasn't happened there in about a decade.
