There might not be a national media member who hears about the Pittsburgh Steelers as much as Rich Eisen. One of the biggest supporters of Mike Tomlin and the team, he took heat from Steelers fans bombarding him with tweets as he stood by Tomlin even in the middle of their three-game losing streak. And though even Eisen’s faith wavered ever so slightly, he can’t help but gloat a little bit about a Steelers team that has righted the ship and could play on Wild-Card weekend.
On Tuesday’s episode of the Rich Eisen Show, he made sure to note the Twitter silence of Steelers fans’ cries to fire Tomlin.
