Mike McCarthy aims for 2-0 start with Steelers against Patriots

Mike McCarthy seeks to secure a 2-0 start as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers with a game against the New England Patriots on Sunday. In his debut game, McCarthy led the Steelers to a 20-13 victory. A loss for the Patriots would mark their second 0-2 start in 20 seasons, a situation they want to avoid as they prepare for future matchups. Teams that finished as Super Bowl participants, like the Patriots, have historically struggled after starting 0-2, highlighting the stakes for New England.
