After the latest ‘Tomlin Special’, that inexplicable clunker of a loss, this time a 24-10 loss at the hands of the formerly 2-10 Arizona Cardinals, the list of grievances that fans have with Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin is getting longer. The Steelers’ season began with the team riding high from a dominant offensive preseason, and it quickly fell apart in Week One. The defense has carried the day on most Sundays, and subsequently, the Steelers are 7-5 and still in the thick of playoff contention.
Yet the season has been at points a disaster. Fans feel plenty of animosity towards the head coach, and in some cases, it’s completely warranted.
