Mike Tomlin loves to say that the standard is the standard, and for the Pittsburgh Steelers, the standard is winning Super Bowls. Unfortunately, they haven’t been able to meet those expectations since 2008. That’s one of the biggest knocks against Mike Tomlin. For all that he has accomplished, he hasn’t been able to get the Steelers another ring and recently, they’ve even struggled to win a playoff game. No one may be more hurt by that lack of success than Tomlin himself.
Appearing on a recent episode of the The Pivot podcast, former Steelers safety Ryan Clark asked Tomlin what it feels like to continue to field competitive teams but fail to capture a Super Bowl victory.
