    Well Tomlin was either scared to hire any coaches that might outshine him or too stupid to know a good assistant coach to hire....so which one is it?....either way Tomlin fails.

    He had Arians, Haley, Smith, Munchak and Flores all on his staff and all were Head Coaches. Not exactly what you would do if you were afraid of being replaced internally. Also I have to wonder how Tomlin won so many games for so long in a league that is inredibly difficult to do so. According to fans he couldnt hire a staff or lead a staff, he didnt know X's and O's, couldnt develope players, and yet he is 9th winningest coach of all time.
