Before this season began, it felt like the Pittsburgh Steelers had more doubters than at any time in recent history. More people picked them to finish last than first in the AFC North. Through 11 weeks of play, they’ve silenced a lot of criticism. Much of the credit for that should be given to Mike Tomlin. Las Vegas Raiders pass rusher Maxx Crosby really likes what the Steelers are doing, believing Tomlin deserves to win the Coach of the Year award.
“If they keep it up, for sure,” Crosby said recently on his podcast, The Rush when asked if Tomlin should win the award.
