Tomlin is such a coaching force that he will never let the Steelers fall by the wayside. To Tomlin, being at the helm of a losing campaign would be unacceptable. It’d be a hit to his hallowed reputation. He is a coach crafted to be at the helm of a ready-made winner, nothing less. A rebuild isn’t worth his time.

Pittsburgh isn’t close to winning a Super Bowl, it isn’t close to seriously contending for one and it’s time to make sweeping changes to a middling roster led by a longtime head coach.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has done great things for the franchise. However, recent postseason performances have to have the front office rethinking Tomlin's future.
