Shades is used to no accountability where just not losing is good enough. It appears those days are over with Kahn in house. No more "deciding things with his gut" and other such nonsense by Shades.
If Tomlin gets an extension for a few years, I doubt Art will make the tough decision and make a move, although he should. He will rationalize to keep him for at least another year, probably citing that Shades has no losing season. Yea, that old assertion. Even if we make the playoffs but don't win a game, that should be enough to finally get rid of Shades - SHOULD BE.
We need our GREAT players to step up and lead...not only on the field by example, but off the field in the locker room. We really don't have that here now. I read an article where Harris brought up an issue to Tomlin on the attitude in the facility compared to Alabama and wanted some changes....he said Tomlin simply chuckled and told him to just play RB.
Probably offer another 3-5 year extension
Holy crap I hope not! The untouchable Mike Tomlin.
Until he fires Tomlin all seems like lip service, unfortunately
To be honest, yes. I'm hopeful, but like many Steeler fans I'll sit on the couch and chuckle at ineptitudes and make snarky sarcastic comments at an otherwise ho-hum performance every week. That is what Mike Tomlin created in us fans.
Or, I won't care, and was just sounding kind.
Don't underestimate Shades' ability to come up with endless scapegoats besides himself, he's been doing it forever. Although there's been interesting developments along that front.
