What’s Next For The Pittsburgh Steelers And Coach Mike Tomlin?

After a 21-18 loss to the Patriots on Thursday Night Football, fans and analysts alike are wondering what’s next for Mike Tomlin and the Steelers.

The Bleav in Steelers podcast, hosted by Ike Taylor and Mark Bergin, reached its 300th episode with a special guest appearance by Dave Dameshek, the host of “Minus Three” and “Gridiron Gut Check” podcasts.

Dave Dameshek wasted no time diving into the conversation, posing an intriguing question: What if it’s not just about the Steelers moving on from Mike Tomlin, but also about Tomlin wanting to move on from the Steelers? This perspective added a new layer of complexity to the debate surrounding Tomlin’s tenure in Pittsburgh.

Ike Taylor, the former Steelers cornerback, brought up a valid point by referencing Rich Eisen’s view on the matter. Eisen’s perspective was clear: If Coach Tomlin decided to part ways with the Steelers, he’d have no shortage of suitors in the coaching market. Dave Dameshek, however, countered this argument by emphasizing that a coach’s availability should not be the sole determinant of their future with a team.

The conversation continued to heat up as Ike Taylor posed a challenge to Dave Dameshek, asking for at least three names that could potentially replace Mike Tomlin if he were to leave. This question put the spotlight on potential successors, a topic that has piqued the curiosity of many Steelers fans. The Steelers come into this Saturday’s game against the Colts on the road as 2.5-point underdogs according to BetOnline.
