Mike Tomlin Steps Down: Is Tomlin A Better Coach Than John Harbaugh?

Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss the impact of Mike Tomlin’s departure on the Steelers, whether he is the top coaching candidate on the market, how his legacy compares to fellow Super Bowl-winning coach John Harbaugh and more. Mike Tomlin has stepped down as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, ending a 19-season run with the franchise. His decision came shortly after the Steelers were eliminated from the playoffs with a lopsided Wild Card loss, capping several years of growing frustration over postseason struggles despite consistent regular-season success. Tomlin leaves as one of the most accomplished coaches in NFL history, having never had a losing season, winning Super Bowl XLIII, capturing multiple AFC North titles and leading the team to numerous playoff appearances. His departure marks the end of one of the longest and most stable coaching tenures in modern sports and leaves the Steelers searching for only their fourth head coach since 1969.
