Florio: Tomlin can be next John Madden

from The PM Team w/Poni & Mueller

Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Mike said he’s been checked out on the Pirates since the NLCS loss in 1992. He added that 1979 was easily the apex of being a Pirates’ fan. Mike went after Dan Orlovsky, jokingly, about the all-of-the-sudden love for Ty Simpson and the belief that Simpson is now the best QB in this year’s draft. If there is something to this, Mike said it’s genius work done by Orlovsky to help out Simpson, who conveniently share an agent. Mike believes Mike Tomlin will absolutely end up on TV and thinks he could be the next John Madden if he wants it. Mike confirmed that it pays a whole lot more to be a color analyst in the booth instead of working on the studio shows. Mike can’t believe the NFL teams are OK with star players participating in flag football games.
