Tomlin’s claim to fame was brought to you by Pat and Kevin Williams in Minnesota as his lone year as DC. Nobody could run that ball on them. He also spent most of his NFL years prior to Pittsburgh with Tampa Bay where they had those great defenses.
Like Cowher before him, he’s a good HC, but that’s it. In fact, the Steelers are lucky as hell they actually won one Super Bowl and got to another at the expense of not facing NE. He is 8-9 in the playoffs with Rothlesburger where it’s debatable how good he is. Tomlin has not won a playoff game since 2016 losing all 4 appearances. That’s not good.
