Insider Believes Mike Tomlin Under More Pressure Due To Steelers’ ‘Elite Mediocrity’

After another season without a playoff victory, Pittsburgh Steelers fans are getting frustrated. They’re used to the Steelers competing for a championship. Unfortunately, the team hasn’t lived up to that standard in recent years. Despite that, it feels like Mike Tomlin’s job is totally secure. Art Rooney II didn’t seem to turn the heat up on Tomlin. However, NFL insider James Palmer believes Tomlin might be facing a little more pressure than he usually does.

“I think, the Steelers, there’s a vibe right now that there might be a little more pressure in Pittsburgh on Mike Tomlin than there has been in years past,” Palmer said recently on Bleacher Report’s YouTube channel.
