If you’ve followed sports long enough during your lifetime then you know that there comes a point when every coach reaches the end. The message gets old or the success just isn’t what it was expected to be. Mike Tomlin enters his 19th season in charge of the Pittsburgh Steelers. This makes him the longest tenured coach with the same team in the entire NFL. Most coaches who reach this point do so by winning championships or at the very least are competing for them on a yearly basis.
One would think that after almost a decade without winning a postseason game, that a coach would be on some sort of “hot seat” with his organization.
