    Yes, I had noted in recent post that Cowher had his warts.

    That said, at least it was a BUNCH of AFCCG. I can't even remember the last one under Tomlin.

    If you don't like being disappointed at home in an AFC CG, then you may not want Cowher.

    If you prefer getting embarrassed and thumped by a non-bye team in a pre-divisional round, then Tomlin is your guy.

    If you like empty slogans, useless cliches, toothless boasts and a bug-eyed, deer-in-the-headlights head coach, then Tomlin is DEFINITELY your guy.

    Tomlin did win playoff games... so he's got that feather in the cap that Lewis doesn't have. And I'm one of the more intense Tomlin critics on this forum.

    I expect this defense to be #1 in the AFCN this year. They edged out BAL last season, CIN anchored the division, and CLE had the class of the division on defense. Given the offseason additions there is no reason to think the Steelers cannot return to top 10.
