Looks like we won't be winning the SB for the next 4 seasons.

As it should be for a coach with his success"My team, may they always be right, but right or wrong...MY TEAM!"Comment

This makes sense.
Rooney already all but committed to extending him.
Nice to see that the term is 3 years. It suggests that Tomlin wants to stay beyond Ben (unlike Colbert on year to year contracts who I think will retire with the QB).
I think it's probably a good thing not to have the QB, GM, and HC all go at the same time for a team that seems to pride itself on consistency and avoiding dramatic changes.
And while the Steelers have consistently honored coaches contracts, there is nothing that says they can't dump a guy mid contract. Although I don't think that happens here because I think they'll give Tomlin at least a few years to find and work with whoever is the next long term option under center.Comment

You mean like posters that said that he would for sure that 2019 or 2020 would be his last year?
Wondering if those posters that said a 1 year extension (to a contract with more than a year and a half left on it) wasn't a "vote of confidence" think the current extension is.Last edited by Northern_Blitz; 04-20-2021, 10:00 AM.Comment

Like I've said before (though I think it might be a good thing for him to feel a little more pressure), he knows that with the Rooneys, he's here for as long as he wants to be.Comment

Congrats, Coach T!Help me find my post proving I am a Yinzer!
I will tip my hat to Tomlin if he has a winning record and the team makes the play-offs in the upcoming season.Comment

Why not just give him a lifetime contract? Art Rooney II. We have ownership issues and you can't fire that person.
I blame you for not advancing the Steelers. At the rate you are going well win the next super bowl when you in your grave.Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.
Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.
*** Mike Tomlin is the best coach since the AFL- NFL merger that has not won a playoff game in 8 seasons or more. It's either him or Lewis. ***Comment

This is what I'm kind of excited about.
What does a Tomlin team look like when they have a QB on a rookie contract?
How does a team like that play when they made it to even with Mason Rudolph?
I think Ben is the main reason for the success of this team, but he's not what he was a decade ago.
Maybe Tomlin fails without Ben. Especially if our next QB is bad.
But if our next QB is good, I'd imagine that he's learned some things coaching one of the best to ever play.Comment
