Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin enters today’s game having coached 231 games in the regular season over the course of his head coaching career. He has won 149 of those games. He is afforded the opportunity today to become just the 20th coach in NFL history to reach 150 wins, and if he does, he will be the fourth-fastest to do it.
Last Sunday’s win over the Cleveland Browns itself was historic for the team’s own history, as it tied Tomlin with his predecessor, Bill Cowher, for the second-most wins with the Steelers, of course with everybody standing in the shadow of Chuck Noll, who retired with 193 wins, ninth-most all-time, in 23 seasons.
