Coaching Change Thread

[tapeANaspirin2it]

Atlanta kicks it off by firing head coach Arthur Smith. His dad founded FedEx so he's not hurting for money.

Smith actually did a good job there. He built up the core of a good team. They just don't have a QB.

I'm sure there will be more heads rolling this week.

I will go with 31 teams not Mike T

Wow, Arthur Blank isnt f'ing around, kinda surprised Smith got the boot.

The new Steelers OC? I would think he would be a candidate...

Series of high draft picks, but could do no better than 7-10 his three years.

If you don't have a QB in this league you're never going to win. See Belichick, Bill. The key mistake he made was hitching his wagon to Desmond Ritter.

Final straw was getting film crew caught in Cincinnati.

Commanders fired Rivera.

Why when they move in from Tomlin in say 2028 a year after I retire with only 8 more years in my job then him they should go with offensive mind. Defensive coaches are dime a dozen.

Mrs. Fan saw this thread and started chanting "Tomlin, Tomlin . . . ."

Any of those teams would do better if they traded a couple first round picks for The Coach Who’s Never Had A Losing Season.

Ritter was always going to be a four or five year project... great physical ability though...

He just made the playoffs... I feel like 3 first rounders feels right

Greatest coach everrrr….

Greatest coach everrrr….

Nah if he cheated for 20 years he could be the greatest coach ever...

This would be the year to
Trade Tomlin when I think his value is very high.
Teams like Washington, Chicago, Atlanta, LA Chargers could be attractive to Tomlin. The draft capital would be attractive to the Steelers too but of course it won’t happen since the greatest coach ever will get an extension.

I think he'd go to the Chargers in a heartbeat - the most difficult problem there is already solved and the stuff that he's good at is what they need. I doubt Chicago change coach.

What's he good at?

 

[speedicut]

What's he good at?

Press conference spinning, high fiving, Tetris on a Game Boy

 

[ZonaBurgh]

What's he good at?

Coining phrases.

 

[madinsomniac]

What's he good at?

Being a part time loser?

Who would that be?

 

[skialta]

I love the idea of a Sean Payton type trade. Coach Tomlin HAS NEVER had a losing season. How satisying is that?! 8-8, 9-7? Oh hell yeah.
Khan would not take less than a Ricky Williams Saints trade for a guy who wins more than he looses.
I don't feel like the we as Steeler fans understand what a luxury it is to be just a little bit better than a loser.
Get it done!
