Stephen A. Smith isn’t going scorched Earth on Mike Tomlin the way he railed against Matt Canada last season. But Smith is skeptical of Tomlin’s ability to do what he was contractually extended to do. Lead the Pittsburgh Steelers to a Super Bowl.

I’m proud of who he is and how he represents everything he represents. Having said that, um, it’s no knock against him that I don’t see the Steelers winning the Super Bowl in three years.
