A lot has changed over the 17 years since Mike Tomlin first took the job as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers. The most obvious is his age. He was 35 in his first season on the job. He’ll be 51 when the 2023 season kicks off. He understands the dynamics have changed during that time and he’s had to change with them.
“I played college football against James Farrior. I knew Farrior since I was about 19 or 20, so that was different dynamics”, he said on Mad Dog Sports Radio yesterday on SiriusXM including, among others, his former lineman, Willie Colon.
