    Pretty easy for Tomlin to make this list with all of Cowher's players.

    If Tomlin is on that list, it is incorrect.

    Obviously

    I'm not anti-Tomlin, but I think 20 is a push... depends on the criteria I guess, but I'd have Levy and Schottenheimer way above him at this point in time.

    Honestly, I think it's way beyond a push. I think there are plenty of Steeler fans who give him too little credit, but putting him in the top 25 of all time is crazy talk IMO.

    5 championships in 9 years?? Yeah, I'd say that's pretty good!
    I think Coryell should be on the list.

    There is only 1 reason Tomlin would be on that list and it has nothing to do with his coaching ability.

    While I would be ecstatic for Tomlin to be on that list, he still has some ways to go. If he can capture another Lombardi or two and maintain his ridiculous winning percentage, then I would put him in should those criteria be met at the end of his coaching career.


    As it stands though? Too high on my list in spite of him being the youngest coach to win one and could become the fastest coach to reach 100 wins in just nine seasons (John Madden was younger but did it in ten seasons).
