    Quick little interview, he watched the draft from a cigar bar. I was just thinking watching some of the draft coverage that it was weird not seeing him in the war room.

    On why he left, we already know that reason, just felt it was the best thing for the organization and the vet players trying to cash in on a SB.

    Most important tidbit, thinks Rodgers will be back.

    If the report of the Steelers shopping Rudolph during the draft, then they know Rodger’s is coming back.

    Glad to know he is doing well! It is a shame that he didn't end his career on a high note but I will always be thankful for him for introducing me to Steelers Football. Hope his media gig yields success and happiness!


    Thank you Mike Tomlin! Best of luck and best wishes! :herewego:

    Going to be interesting to see him be more candid and not play everything so close to the vest.

    I am guessing Tomlin is planning to go back to coaching but a year in a warm studio working regular people hours can change a guy.

    you can almost hear the producers yelling in his ear to deliver more Tomlinisns… I suspect he’ll be more analytic than they expect, for sure

    Agreed.

    For a guy who is very private, I wonder how he will perform in th booth. Have to be a very charismatic individual.
