    He would???

    Nonsense, word salad?

    Put him in the booth with Collinsworth just so they can drive each other nuts.

    I look at this a lot like the Andy Reid times in Philly, although I'd argue he was way more successful, just didn't have a ring. He would get bounced in NFCCG's not the first round.

    They didn't get it correct right away with Chip Kelly then Pederson and now Sirianni, but guess what they got. 2 Championships!

    Sometimes a change is needed for change sake to shake things up.

    It's now all on Khan. We'll see what he's got

    Perhaps. But he's more like someone reading a Mad Libs filled in by a drunken toddler.

    Perhaps the most refreshing aspect of this whole revelation is that the next HC will never face the wrath of this MB with "Yeah but, he did it with _______'s players"! :rolleyes:

    Let's be honest, it's a bittersweet time. We were entertained by Tomlin's teams over the two decades. Maybe not always optimistic about a postseason run but also never feeling like they were headed for a Jets/Browns kinda season regardless of what the roster looked like.

    I can't wait for the next Super Bowl and listening to the "new coach" naysayers tell us that he won the Super Bowl with Tomlin's players. :facepalm::lolol:

    We're not sniffing a SB until we clean house and rebuild. So, sorry to throw water on your narrative, but that argument won't be an issue.

    Time to do a compete overhaul.

    Everyone gone on the staff. Let the vets go or trade for what you can. Keep a young core and rebuild.

    There will be a lot of short term pain. Growing pains. But it'll be worth it if we get back to where we should be in a few years.

    What they were doing now obviously wasn’t working
    Me personally, don’t care if we have a losing season to build a championship caliber team of old.

    I caught your sarcasm
    This is one thing as a fan I won’t or can’t say that we won a Superbowl with Tomlins players
    Most will be in old folks home next year

    I'm not saying he was as good as a HC as Noll, but they have the same number of wins in the regular season 193.
