Is this Tomlin's last year?

This Season is Over. My gut feeling says he Will Resign after this season is up. I don’t think that Art Rooney will tell him to make adjustments on his Offensive and Defensive Coordinators?

 

Yes!

 

I cannot believe that it has been 17 seasons since our last superbowl win and 15 seasons and counting since our last superbowl appearance. I have been a steeler fan my whole life and was so proud of the 70's teams. But the years to follow were long and dark and when Cowher came through and got us back to the top I really thought we would not ever have a drought like we did from 1979 to 2004. Naturally I knew we would not win them all but I figured we would battle for division champs and playoff appearances and wins with hopefully another SB or 2 but Tomlin has this organization at a place where even if they bring in a new coaching staff it will take time to rebuild it. I cant believe that we have not even won a single playoff game in almost 10 years, 10 freaking years and if Tomlin were to sign another multi-year contract after this one it will no doubt continue. Tomlin could match the end of Chuck Knolls career and Bill Cowhers rebuilding seasons. I did have a buffer when Pittsburgh went through their transition from Knoll to Cowher because my Duke Bluedevils started rolling out final fours and national championships.

 

Why would Tomlin resign?

 

Who?

 

He never blinks anyways

 

But didn't pony up the cash to buy him out even though he was a horrible OC and it cost much less than it would to buy Tomlin out?

 

He’s acting different and getting more n more, umm aggressive, or maybe just more perturbed, I dunno. But there’s a difference lately with his responses.

All this talk of mediocre Mike going. I’m more worried about who they would get to replace him. Frightened, in fact.

 

Maybe he did, I don't know.
As long as Tomlin runs the show the coordinators don't matter. He knows that.

 

If Mike Tomlin was coaching the Bengals, would Jamarr Chase still be a Bengal?

How many teams out there are going to want to bring in a head coach that chases his best players away?

 

Yep he broke the Cardinal rule of being a Steelers fan.

 

I'm not frightened by who they'd get to replace him with. I think the last 50+ years is evident enough that finding a quality HC is something they're historically good at, and I'm sure Dan III would have a larger say in this endeavor than meets the eye.

 

Honestly!

 

Fair synopsis

 

If they did trade Tomlin, they would have to do it prty early in the off-season? that way they would have time to find their new coach and coaching staff. and prepare for draft

 

Yea... would be the first week of the offseason.

 

Cannot say I am surprised. Did you see T.J. Watt's Presser at the end of the Bears game?! Didn't seem like his usual self.


Body Language is one hell of a thing. Not an expert on it myself but T.J. looked pretty much done with the season. Jalen Ramsey's Media Presser after the game was much of the same though his body language is more direct for he doesn't give a damn.

 

The Steelers have Mike Tomlin syndrome.

 

True... minus two major factors. Tomlin's contract includes a no trade clause. Unless Tomlin signs off on it, that isn't happening. However, lets assume that Tomlin does decide to go. Who is taking Tomlin's remaining Contract on?!


Tennessee Titans could be the obvious choice. The New York Giants have been floated around as well due to the familial ties. Thing is, I don't think it is going to happen simply because AR 2 has already been on record in saying that Mike Tomlin is going to stay and leave on his own terms.

 

JaMarr Chase is a generational WR. Tomlin already worked with an even worse head case in Antonio Brown. I doubt that JaMarr would go anywhere.

 

I would imagine that, at the earliest, DMR III would take over in 2027. For that matter, Tomlin could be on his way out in 2027 the same. Would be the perfect time for both Tomlin and AR II to step down.


DMR III comes in, he can select his guy and the team moves forward. With any luck, DMR III sees the major shift in how the NFL has evolved as far as being competitive and puts the Steelers back on the map by adapting to that change.

 

?

 

Why couldn't the Steelers/ other teams do when they trade some players
Agree to pay part of his salary for the first year?.... Or couldn't the Steelers and Tomlin agreee on a buy out on his contract then trade him?.. Personally I think he will retire at seasons end then coach somewhere else...
