Tomlin quite viable too, but playoff record sucks, losing the last 7 in a row, plus head to head Tomlin got his ass kicked. I like Tomlins fire and ability to get more from less which is an awesome sign. If he were coaching the Bills, would he have done better? Not sure, but in my opinion, they are both better coaches that who we have today, a player friendly coach who wins as much as the talent on the team and no more, unless its a fluke with a crazy offensive scheme with a phenom rookie QB with little tape.
Let's face it, Quinn is a defensive coach and our defense sucks, that should tell you a lot. How about ex LB's who have terrible LB's. It's a bad sign. I like Quinn, so do the players which is great for recruiting and retention, but not sure it leads to sustainable over producing the talent on the team. Shit, I could have coached this team to 5 wins last year, let's be real.
The only reason he shouldt already be fired is because of excuses and throwing his coordinators under the bus, even though he called the defensive plays later.
How many times did Gibbs win with backups? He won in spite of injuries. That's what excellent coaches do. So regarding Tomlin, he has a touch of that skill, I see it. He gets more with less, he just gets out coached in the playoffs. If he had an offensive wizard with special playoff plays, he wins championships.
I mean I don't mean to be a downer or anything but only Skins Homer's think we are winning 12 games. To me, this year is the true reality check. 2024 was awesome, going for it on every 4th down with nothing to lose. Ultimately we got our asses kicked by Philly when luck ran out. 2025 was a massive underacheivment, yes injuries but we won big the prior year with the same backup QB. No excuses, the coaching, the play and the preparation was poor. So Quinn gets a mulligan. 5 wins out of 17 is pure shit. In the context of winning 14 the prior year is catastrophicly bad. I dont think having 9 fewer wins than year one has ever been acheived by a NFL coach. It is mind bogglingly bad objectively.
Remember, we closed out 2-10, and the last one was against Philly resting their starters and screwing up our draft order. Thinking this team can magically win is what fandom is all about, but this is a question of what is "real"
If he get the team to play to their par skill level, they win 7-8.That is my realistic expectation.
