Steelers should make a call to Steve Wilks after dismissal as 49ers DC

News just broke Wednesday that Steve Wilks was dismissed as defensive coordinator of the San Francisco 49ers.

Apparently, somebody had to take the fall for that debacle of a decision to receive the kick in overtime during the Super Bowl. Oh, wait — special team decisions aren’t made by the defensive coordinator; maybe, Wilks was supposed to run down the sideline screaming no stop, kickoff.

Why would this be of interest to the Pittsburgh Steelers, you might be asking?
