Just when you thought the Black Monday chaos was over, it strikes again. Mike Tomlin informed the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday that he is stepping down as head coach after the team's blowout Wild Card loss to the Houston Texans.
It's the end of a historic 19-year run that featured a Super Bowl win in 2008, another Super Bowl appearance in 2010, and eight NFC North titles.
Early reporting hints that Tomlin could enter the broadcasting space before potentially coaching again in 2027. The Dallas Cowboys seemingly don't have to worry about Tomlin joining the NFC, but Tomlin's exit could screw them out of landing their dream defensive coordinator.
