The same reason why

Had a 55 year career in the league...

But you already knew this. Let Coach Tomlin have a couple of bad years in a row and you’ll really see how they feel about him :mjpls:
shyt Tomlin having an average season already had people screaming for his job. People always credit Big Ben but he's had some rough ass stretches at times and the Steelers kept winning during those stretches.

Tomlin ain't looked at as an elite coach because of all the extra bullshyt.

Team constantly would go for two point conversions after scoring the opening TD

Players showboat ALL THE TIME

Seems to not have control of his locker-room

Team constantly plays down to their oppenents

Too much of a "Player coach"

Last but not least...they call him undisciplined because of everything I listed above.

With this said, damn near everything that is said is somewhat true but even through it all dude continues to win. I personally wouldn't give him up for anyone else and I'm sure outside of NE and Seattle every other team would trade their coach for him.

This is his fourth straight season of 10 Winn or more
He's been to two super bowls has never had a season lesser than 8 wins

If he was white hed be right up there

But Mike McCarthy doesn't get much credit. Seems like coaches get more credit when they get wins with a bad roster.

Facts. Ben, AB, Bell and Bryant all missed significant time over the past few seasons yet all he does is win. I'd give up my right arm to see Tomlin replace Jason Garrett

They try to shyt on him saying he won his ring with Cowhers players but yet they say Gruden was needed to take the Bucs over the top when he did the same thing after taking over for Dungy. And Mike has had consistent success since then which is something that someone like Gruden cant say with his mediocre record. Tomlin is a damn good coach though and 20 plus teams in the NFL would be lucky to have him roaming their sidelines.

Some of you saying Tomlin isn't an X's and O's guy, is crazy talk. That is how he came up through the ranks so fast because of his X's and O's, attention to detail, as well as a great communicator.

I knew I wasn't crazy. All the people in here sayin' he's a "rah rah" coach and I'm like, I swore I've read multiple profiles on him being beyond A1 in interviews BECAUSE of his X&O football knowledge :gucci:. Dude comes super prepared with binders and binders of shyt apparently. He just knows the game. He does make some boneheaded in-game decisions from time to time but coach the game long enough and everybody has their moments.

Jeff Fisher coached 7-9 bullshyt for 2 decades while Mike Tomlin got a ring and never has had a losing season

What you think?
One Super Bowl loss afforded him that but a breh winning a super bowl has his seat always on 3 on the stove.
