Caveman_Nick Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I just got an email stating as much, trying to find a source to corroborate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesplante11 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I read an article that state a Fire Chief that called Tomlin a racial slur has resigned. That's all I can find tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrab Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 I heard some of the Steelers ownership group (outside the Rooney family) are rallying for a coaching change, but they don't have the power to make it happen. Seems like a public way of trying to put pressure on the Rooney's, and get the fans to say "see look some of our owners agree that Tomlin should be fired". Rooney runs the team, and is the owner of record with the NFL. They cannot just have a meeting and vote him out if they have 51% of ownernship to agree. They'd need to get NFL to agree, and in order to even go there they'd need another owner with minimum 30% stake in team to take over as primary owner, that is an NFL requirement. For the record I think getting rid of him would be stupid, he may not be elite but who you going to hire that is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gourdeau Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Nope. Hes there, announced today that defensive coaching jobs are safe fml Other big headline today is he's already calling out the NFC for rematch in 2019 probowl... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gourdeau Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Lev Bell and 1 coach didn't show up to walkthrough practice before jags game. Players and coaches supposed to show up 2 hours before kickoff for games, that was ignored weekly yet no suspensions or fines for this internally. Yet another example of lack of discipline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikesVikes Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 I heard that Bell didn't feel like practicing was for him on the day before their playoff loss. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/leveon-bell-reportedly-blew-off-steelers-walkthrough-before-jaguars-loss/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
