Tomlin has always been a leader of men type guy. Someone mentioned a story where he was a young defensive back coach just hired to coach an All Pro safety, corner. The player didn't expect much but Tomlin soon handed him 5 areas he wanted the All Pro player to improve.
Pretty great that in all likelihood Mahomes has excised two of KC's ghosts of playoff pasts (Luck, Ben) and gave them their last career loss at Arrowhead.
EDIT. Just realized Mariota was on the Titans roster in 2019. Freaking nice :-) [Reply]

He’s let those guys get away with murder, and I think it’s hurt the team.
Great coach though.
Errrrr....ummmmm....There's something else.
He's also been pretty cunty with the media. I don't think that can be a knock on him per se, but still, I'll take Reid's approach over Tomlin's. [Reply]

Yeah, that kind of destroyed his reputation with me, along with the fact that he didn't seem to have a problem with dirty play by certain of his players. [Reply]

Barry Switzer had a SB ring as a HC.
Tomlin gets all sorts of credit for never having a losing season, but he plays in a division with 2 teams that were consistently NFL bottom feeders.
Tomlin is a FN douchebag. When the Steelers were kneeling at the end of the 1st half, I wish Reid would have called a time out, because that's exactly the type of bitch move Tomlin would pull.
