Find Someone Who Has Your Back Like Rich Eisen Has Mike Tomlin’s | The Rich Eisen Show 

Agreed. Look at Purdy: 3rd string, got his chance, and now thriving. The NFL is brutal. There is a lot of luck involved too in getting to the starting lineup and it is about taking chances. Steelers were just stuck in a competitive AFC North this year and didn't click. It can't click every year. A good evaluation needed, a solid draft ahead to fix both lines of scrimmage and take the best available defensive players to keep on top of top notch offenses. I say keep the same QB room and replace Mitch with a rookie to learn. Keep it competitive. Tomlin knows what he is doing.

Different take. Mason got bashed on the helmet and someone falsely accused him of being racist. Tomlin believed the fake news.

I believe this is closer to the truth. But there is no way he said it. Not surrounded by 20 other guys who could have possibly heard it also. He's not that stupid. Nobody is. @@jtfike

Absolutely. The fact Mike Tomlin is still employed by the Steelers is disgraceful.

He had the 3B s. And no SB

3-5 in playoffs last 8 years.

@@rubberboobsliquor2962 You mean 0-4 with multiple misses?

@@thequeen901 I’m sorry, do you know what year it is?? Or how to subtract?

Since 2017 I’m tired of this hamster wheel 😢

They ain't firing him... you should probably just head out

He’s better than doc

More like a Popovich

MT is my coach but that 💩 was 🤭😭

And Tomlin gets more excuses handed to him by the media even more than Leflop !! For 2 so called greats there’s a lot of losing going on when it’s supposed to count !!

No one who wants tomlin to stay is content with just being in the playoffs. those with common sense understand that without this man keeping things together for this organization theres no shot in hell this team in the state it is in has a chance of winning. We won a superbowl back in 2009. Since then we have had injuries, people get old and retire, and just plain old knuckleheads. The problem with the steelers org is not solely tomlin. He could for sure secure a betetter secondary defense on a regular FOR SURE!!!!!! but to say hes the reason we have been mediocre when weve gone through a whole period of having a sh!tty secondary.... Not paying the talent we do have to stay and perform.....Players coming in and acting a fool so we have to let them go.....Players not taking a step back so younger talent can develop..... We have been LUCKY to consistently see the playoffs most of the years we have been around and mike tomlin is a primary reason why that luck turned into success.

Damn, you're showing your age (Olivia N-J ?!?). That said, you're right, Rich is developing a weird obsession about Tomlin.

So now you’re into dudes?

It’s not weird at all. He is responding to yinzers who come from a poor education.

Mannnnnn....... I thought I was old😂 Olivia Newton John???? GREASE😬🤦🏾‍♂️

No playoff wins in 7 yrs. 8 wins after this season. Look at Andy Reid. He overstayed in Philly. Sane with Tomlin. Tomlin needs to move on to regain his fire

3-7 in the postseason since 2011 and 2 of those Ws were in 2016. So since 2011, he has won a playoff game in 2 out of 12 seasons and has had fewer than 10 wins more times than not.

@@jeffkadlec8264 andy reid lost 12 games his last year in philly. tomlin hasnt gotten close to losing that many. its a false comparison.

@@ThomasJeffersonIII playing only one game out of playoff contention is good. especially considering the rosters of the early 2010s and 2020s. there are teams that have done far worse

@@173jaSon371 i really don't care about x wins in y seasons. there are teams that havent won a playoff game since the turn of the century who barely see the playoffs. i'll take the long term consistency

No... you might be... the loudest crowd might be... but the mass of steeler nation still rises with him... even if I'm wrong... those that want him gone... are idiots point blank

Excuse me..... that is now 10-7 and in the playoffs😌 speak for yourself or have you seen the Chargers, Raiders, Panthers, Commanders, Jets, and Minnesota abd other teams that keeps changing coaches. I'm good with MT👍🏾

Well, don't keep the "same" QB room. They're not going to have Mitch Trubisky in that room next year.

Mitch is going to yhe XFL next year🤞🏾😅

Except, we've had multiple players confirm that, those comments aren't true. Tomlin never lost the locker room, Tomlin never didn't have the locker room keeping the Steelers way. It's the individual players not executing. Mason is inserted and uses his vet ability to make the offense cohesive. Our defense has little been held together by duct tape and glue and spit. Yet it's a top defense. It can still get pressure and generate TOs without Taj there.

@@2centswanted113 Yeah, sure. As if current players would ever say that. However, it's on record Ben did say it, and a sure bet HOF QB w/2 SB wins holds more weight. Don't forget Bradshaw's assessment. Cheerleader

@@mc1993 Bradshaw isn't part of the team and wasn't a good teammate when he was in Pittsburgh. He wasn't a leader of that team nor the offense so Bradshaw assessments don't mean much. Players 100 percent will call out their team and coach you just admitted to that with Ben. Mendenhall did it. Boswell did it. Your taking the word over Ben who isn't in the locker room. Over locker room leaders like Cam, TJ, Najee. Or Vets like Roberts, Pat, and Levi despite all 3 players having been on record for being vocal. Or role players like Herbig, Jaylen, Killebrew. You're even trying to give Ben credit for a podcast comment affecting the Steelers. Like you can't even see your own bias.

@@2centswanted113 OK bud. Dream on with whatever excuse you need for you do you.

@@2centswanted113 U chatting with another of our many couch GM's, eh???😭 Even Kelce of the Chiefs stated that MT is one of the better coaches in the NFL.

Mediocrity is loved in Pittsburgh

​@@laflamablanca9161so many mediocre superbowls

People be hyperbolizing stats. Hardly any team is out of playoff contention if they are above .500 every year, so it's the same thing as the non-losing streak. But that's all it is, BS. Doesn't mean anything if you get blown out in the first round.

@@lionelreyna he is a bungle fan. Don’t worry bout him.

@@lionelreyna y’all wasted watt

Let me get this straight. We're spoiled from winning a Super Bowl fifteen years ago. Eagles fans are way worse! They want to fire Sirianni after he was just at the Super Bowl last year! Steelers haven't won a playoff game in seven years!

​​@@kobecoleman5882 Sooooo.....Just keep on living😂😂😂

@@robo1389 I'll be impressed if we actually win the Bills game. But we probably won't lol. Destination is way more important than the journey no matter how many people deny it.

@@kobecoleman5882 I will be too but they already impressed me by making it to the playoffs.

@@robo1389 Relying on other teams to lose again. I see this all the time simply because we're fans and "anything can happen." Everyone is so excited and they get devastated when they lose. It's like you didn't see this coming? Expectations have been lowered over the years.

* Tomlin

🤔

9 - 7 with the 27th best offense, 3 starting quarterbacks, and no offensive coordinator. But yeah, he's a bad coach 🙄

@@montychambliss6254 Well why does he have all that? It's because they've been a horrible organization since Cowher left. The Steelers blow!

​@@DavidAdarmases12 bill and Tomlin record damn near identical what are you talking about 😂😂😂 and he's not 9 wins every yr.

@@jamarjolly6229 Bill has a better playoff record than Tomlin. Since there's supposedly a huge difference between 8-9 and 9-8, let's apply the same logic to overall playoff record. Bill is 12-9 and Tomlin is 8-9.

@@kobecoleman5882 and both only have 1 SB win at the end

Everyone says this, get a QB and everything will be fixed. C and LT are suspect, Muth doesn't block like Darnell does, ILB core and secondary are terrible. Lot of things that need to be fixed before the team can regularly jump to PO

You mean like he did with a QB, WR and RB?

Tomlin had all those intangibles and squandered it !

He's going to be back folks

Non-losing season, check. Backed into the playoffs thanks to another team doing us a favor, check. Knocked out in the first round, TBD. And everyone will forget that we lost those games with Mitch, while Mason was out in the cold, because for some reason no one in the Steelers org were able to figure out that Mitch is trash and never should have even been signed here.

Exactly...he keeps the ship steady but the relationship has grown very stale...it'll only be more of the same going forward, but if they actually want to go up a gear they need a fresh change. Why does Rich not get this.

And that's why he sucks, he knows he won't be fired, so he has become complacent, and he wasn't that good to start with.

He's good at winning meaningless games. Meaningful games, not so much...

Not a fake fan. Been rooting for Pitt since just before Terry Bradshaw arrived in 1970. Tomlin needs to go.

You like losing back to back to two 2-10 teams at home? A good coach would have benched Trubisky before that debacle unfolded.

You misspelled sassy, it's sissy just live every other Steelers fan is on this planet

Well we’re never getting those again Tomlins about as good for a playoff win as he is for a losing season

Get a QB. Quit holding onto sh** that isn't working. What's the definition of insanity? The same thing over and over expecting a different result? Same results for 4+ years now. Do something. Fix it. Get a real QB. Don't let the OC run the same crap for 3 years. Tomlin doesn't know offense. He won't call plays. Get a guy who will and is good at it? You think Bieniemy is taking Washington over Pittsburgh? I like Tomlin. I want him to stay. We have the pieces. Make the necessary changes. That's all I'm asking. Mason is not the long term answer. Mason is the answer to hopefully a playoff seed, best case a win.

As a lifelong Steelers fan I can’t agree more.

When have they had better than a "mid" roster during that period?

@@carriteDo you really think Tomlin has no say at all on roster decisions? He’s not the only decision maker for sure, but if you believe he has no say whatsoever….

thats stupid, he had ben, ab and leveon so stop it.

And all of them played exactly 3 playoff games together out of 7 games

A rock

No, we want him fired. He's a fraud and hasn't built a damn thing. He won life's lottery by being overpaid by an ownership group that is afraid to fire him. He's mediocre at best and the Steelers will never be a respectable true winning franchise again until he's finally gone.

The standard that he supposedly has set for himself and his team.

Ummm...no, he doesn't. Steelers fans know it's all about the personnel in the pads. Get the people who want to _and are able to_ do the work and success will follow. Matt Canada is the exception; his system was flawed beyond repair. So much so, the Steelers did something they hadn't done in over 80 (yes, I said EIGHTY) years: Fire a coach mid-season. Pittsburgh is different; always has been, always will be. They don't subscribe to the "new coach, new team" meme. Tomlin will go when he's ready...not before. Noll, seven losing seasons out of 23...retired. Cowher, three losing seasons out of 15...retired. Tomlin, no losing seasons out of 17...he will retire. Period.

@@NeilTruick Tomlin doesn't deserve to mentioned in the same sentence as Chuck Noll, who took a perennial losing franchise and turned them into a dynasty that still resounds nationally today. Tomlin is the beneficiary of what was already built in Pittsburgh and inherited a future HOF QB in Big Ben with plenty of talent up and down the roster. Tomlin had initial success but has since then mostly hovered around the playoff edges, and choked in a number of playoff games they should've won. And now it's been 6 or 7 years since the last playoff win. If that's fine with you, so be it. But don't add Tomlin into any conversation that includes Chuck Noll.

It would've been on WPXI anyway if you're in Pittsburgh.

@@kobecoleman5882 Atlanta

Right. Jerry Jones only hires yes men. The one time he didn't he won back-to-back Super Bowls.

Chuck Noll: Six losing seasons out of 23. Bill Cowher: Three losing seasons out of 15. Mike Tomlin: No losing seasons out of 17. I've been a citizen of Steeler Nation for 50 years. We do not fire head coaches. The head coach sets the tone. The players execute. Pickett wasn't ready, Trubisky has never been ready, and Rudolph was on time out. Big Ben spoiled us, then he stayed too long. We always did better when the WRs weren't acting out. Now that we have a reliable run game, the WRs have to understand they're not going to be leaned on as much as other teams lean on their wide outs. It's not flashy, it's not sexy...it's Steeler football. It's not supposed to be. Let's say we get rid of Tomlin (which won't and shouldn't happen). Who takes his place? Regardless of who it is, the head coach never takes a snap, never makes a tackle, never recovers a fumble. Not his job. What _IS_ his job is making sure everybody else does theirs to the best of their ability. Canada had no ability. First time in 82 years the Steelers fired _any_ coach midseason. Noll retired. Cowher retired. Tomlin will retire. That's the Steeler way.

@@NeilTruick Pickett stinks & Tomlin liked him. Pickett's ceiling is Daniel Jones. EIGHT SEASONS without a playoff victory. EIGHT SEASONS!! The Steelers org has done an amazing job of finding coordinators that are ready. It's time.

@@NeilTruick What's a significant difference between 8-9 and 9-8?

Two upset victories later and something makes you say that? What makes you say that?
