    There is though. When Tomlin was offered the Steeler job one of the first people he confided in for advice was Butler. But you are correct also, Butler was essentially promised to be the heir apparent to Lebeau, unfortunately for us fans. They need completely new blood on that defensive staff. The scheme that Capers and Lebeau created is sorely obsolete.

    You know he's going to get this team in the play-offs and be considered for Coach of the Year.

    Bank on it!

    Our 2020 draft status would've been better than last year ...but we just traded away our 1st round pick?? FitzPatrick better be worth it...

    Boy I am glad none of you are my teammates, we have played only 2 games
    and you think the season is over. This isn't how upstanding team members think.
    They think that they can turn this thing around starting this Sunday in San Fran or
    San Jose. GO STEELERS.

    If anything this will show how bad of a coach tomlin really is when he doesn't have a hall of fame QB to ride the coat tails of

    But what if the Steelers win with Rudolph? Then Tomlin will get full credit for drafting him.

    Don't forget his awesome record against cellar dweller teams and apparent inability to keep his foot on the gas when we got a good lead.

    I have the up most confidence that Tomlin's ineptitude wont allow that to happen

    As long as his name is on a contract he isn’t going anywhere. The Rooney’s never fire anyone under contract. If Butler still has a job that’s the only reason

    He's the great defender of all things Tomlin. I like him.
