Panic isn't a word that is generally associated with the Pittsburgh Steelers. They are quite possibly the most stable franchise in sports. They have had three head coaches in over half a century of existence. They have won six Super Bowls. And the team's current head coach has never experienced a losing season.
But the anxiety level on the banks of the Monongahela River is ratcheting up because Mike Tomlin's stretch of non-losing seasons is in very serious jeopardy. After losing 29-17 to the Jacoby Brissett-led Cleveland Browns on Thursday night, talk radio in the Steel City will no doubt center on the notion of removing quarterback Mitch Trubisky and replacing him with first-round rookie Kenny Pickett.
