Tomlin stepping down
Details to follow.....
A lot of losses in the playoffs. Has to take a toll on you at some point. No QB to rely on going forward.
word is he has a lucrative tv deal waiting for him, probably as good or better money and none of the grief.
and that makes 8, whoever had 25% the coaches out after the season is sitting pretty good right now.
Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

Tomlin makes it 9…
I figured this was coming...
I think I'm still po'd we were stuck with Chilly when Tomlin left lol!
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

so does this open another potential landing spot for Flores? Word was he was loved in Pittsburgh.
Its the Rooneys still in charge? I would think he would be a legit candidate if that were the case.

Apparently, Mike Pettine just announced his retirement, opening up the Asst. Head Coach title for you know who.
Has it really been 20 years since "PLAY LIKE YOUR HAIR IS ON FIRE" was the Tomlin defensive battle cry in Minnesota?
Makes sense.
He’s kind of in a no mans land right now, where people are bored with the situation, he’s too good to get a quality QB and no one will have the patience to go through that process with him.
Take a year off or get a media job, jump back in when the time is right if he wants to.

Yep. The Tomlin mantra that I remember is "big guys run, small guys hit".
That, and playing a lot of cover zero (no safety up top).
Can't believe he couldn't win the Super Bowl these past few seasons with Pickett, Rudolph, and 2025 Aaron Rodgers at QB. What a bum! /s

The only AFC North team to retain their HC is Cincinnati.
Which is insanity!
