Some Steelers Limited Partners Want Mike Tomlin Out
7 years agoAccording to a report from ProFootballTalk, there are some Pittsburgh Steelers limited partners who want a coaching change. Long-time head coach Mike Tomlin has caught the ire of plenty of Steelers fans after his team failed to beat the Jacksonville Jaguars in the Divisional Round of the playoffs, as many had sky-high expectations for the team this year. A small contingent of Steelers fans who own some equity in the team are upset enough with Tomlin that they want ownership to replace him on the sidelines. Tomlin has been the Steelers head coach since the 2007 season and has brought the team to two Super Bowls, winning one, but his decision making and the team's underachieving has been a sore spot for the limited partners. The report goes on to state that these minority owners have no decision-making authority, but they do have the ability to at least have an audience with primary owner Art Rooney if necessary. It remains to be seen whether anything happens here.
