Usually, when an NFL team’s Hall-of-Fame quarterback retires, it takes a huge step back and enters a rebuilding phase. This tends to mean the team will start losing enough games to have a high draft pick it can then use to select its next franchise quarterback. The Pittsburgh Steelers spit in the face of what’s normal though. Since Ben Roethlisberger retired, the Steelers have still done everything they can to compete, narrowly missing the playoffs in their first season without Roethlisberger and actually making it to the postseason this past year. Much of this success can be attributed to Mike Tomlin’s coaching prowess with one former NFL offensive lineman claiming this ability makes Tomlin the second-best coach in the league.
