Mike Tomlin - The New Pittsburgh Steelers Head Coach

Coach Mike Tomlin is an American football coach who currently serves as the head of the Pittsburgh Steelers of the National Football League. He was a college football player at Michigan and has coached in the NFL since 1996. He is the former head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs and the Cincinnati Bengals. He is a former quarterback and defensive back. The Steelers won the Super Bowl under Tomlin's leadership in 2008.

A native of Hampton, Virginia, Mike Tomlin was drafted into the NFL in the 1970s by the Baltimore Colts. His father, Eddie Tomlin, was a former wide receiver and tight end. In the NFL, he played for the Montreal Alouettes in the CFL. In 2000, he was hired as an assistant coach by the Steelers, where he coached wide receivers and tight ends. In 2007, he was named head coach of the Steelers, where he won a Super Bowl in his second season.

Despite his shaky history in the NFL, Tomlin is making history in his first season as a head coach. The Steelers have the best record in the league, at 7-0. And he just won his 140th game as a head coach, passing Tony Dungy for most victories by a Black head-coach in NFL history. With all that success, there's no way Tomlin can fail as a head coach.

A veteran coach, Tomlin is the best choice for the job. After playing in college, Tomlin was promoted to head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. Under his leadership, the team has an 80-48-1 record during the regular season and a 6-3 playoff record. The Buccaneers also made nine playoff appearances this year, which was a record for the franchise in his first season. And it's likely that they'll make it again in the Super Bowl.

Despite his volatile personality, the coach has a great history with the Pittsburgh Steelers. His first career in the NFL was as a wide receiver for the Steelers in 1994, and he was a second-team All-Yankee Conference selection in 1994. After his playing career, he moved into coaching and was named as wide receivers coach at Virginia Military Institute. He went on to coach a variety of schools for four years, including the University of Cincinnati.

Despite his volatile personality, Mike Tomlin is a great coach. His record has been remarkable and he is very popular with his players. The team has consistently won playoff games and has won eight straight. Despite his incredible record, he is not without controversy. He was fined $100,000 for tripping Ravens kick returner Jacoby Jones and slammed the ball. His reputation is very high, but he's not the only one with volatile behavior.
