Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin got some support from an unlikely place.
PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers haven't been able to break through for a playoff win since 2016 and that has left some fans and media restless. They've channeled some of their frustrations into calls for the franchise to move on from long-time head coach Mike Tomlin .
Willie Colon, a former NFL offensive lineman turned commentator on Fox Sports 1's The Carton Show, said that he believed Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin was on the hot seat. But Tomlin got some support from the unlikeliest of places - former Bengals wideout Chad"Ochocinco" Johnson.“Let’s start there, okay, so, I’m trying to understand, Mr. Willie Colon, why his words and how he feels and what he’s saying hold any weight, why it holds any weight.
Colon highlighted Tomlin's recent playoff record and said he hasn't elevated the rosters he's led beyond their talents, going as far to say they look like"dweebs." “I love Mike Tomlin, but this is, I have to officially say, he’s on the hot seat. And when you talk about his overall record, you talk about in 17 seasons, he has an eight and 10 playoff record, only four seasons with playoff wins and he’s had some bona fide teams even with Ben Roethlisberger.
Tomlin has got nothing but unwavering support from team president Art Rooney and general manager Omar Khan this offseason. And while there is pressure for them to push past simply making the playoffs, the Steelers have faith in their Super Bowl champion head coach to get them back to the summit.
