For just the third time since Chuck Noll was hired in 1969, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be hiring a new head coach. Mike Tomlin's run with the Steelers is over.

THE TERRORIST KEVIN PATULLO IS GONE!
I have a feeling Saleh or Flores will be the Steelers next HC.
Looks like the Lions and Eagles will be fighting for McDaniel.
Mabey
Seemed like a coach with class. I wish him well!
The sight of Jerry Jones kneeling made me shudder and now the sight of Jerry Jones makes me shudder.
Um...oh.
Must have been back when the Patriots were the real thing:-)
Rooney is so woke though...I can’t imagine him firing Tomlin.
I heard a similar story about Cowher.
I was a Steelers fan before the NFL got so boring that I just lost interest (that was even before the kneeling crap). Never liked Tomlin as a coach - he always seemed to coach to be decent, not great (or, as the Pirates would say, “our goal is to be competitive”. Unfortunately they will probably replace him with a pure DIE hire.
Uh yeah, can you blame them? You can’t win a playoff game you can’t keep your job. That’s the way the cookie crumbles in the NFL.
He had inordinate influence over drafting and trading players. He shares plenty of blame
I don’t follow the Steelers that closely. If he was making those decisions, then he should take the blame. Still half the teams, roughly, have coaches below 50% winning. I would hope the Steelers aren’t next in that line.
For McDaniel, after 2 massive HC failures, will 3rd time be the charm?
The whole damned league is so woke I can barely watch it.
Got a team in my town and I will never give them a dime.....and.....the friggin’ owner........is a muslim!

Shahid Khan supported Trump in 2016 but spoke out against Trump’s Muslim ban. Haven’t spoke on the issue since then.
