tomlin will coach steelers
 

i guess they were waiting to see what the bears would do, as they were still interested in an assistant there. but rather than waiting til after the super bowl, since it's now apparent chicago will move on, they've decided to go with tomlin. official announcement expected tomorrow.

too bad--i wanted grimm to get it.

tomlin to be introduced as steelers head coach later today.

maybe a whole new defensive staff with change in philosophies.

tomlin BETTER be good!! i read that LeBeau and Grimm were already informed they won't be asked back.
hate to see this staff split up.:eek:

LeBeau doesn't share the same defensive philosophy as Tomlin.

LeBeau will be back and it has been announced ... he runs a 3-4 and Tomlin is accustomed to a 4-3 and said he would not "rush" to install it ... he said the politically correct thing - something about matching the defense with the skills of his players.

I stand corrected...didn't see the last part that LeBeau would accept that. Thanks

glad LeBeau is staying. should keep the defensive staff intacted.
maybe mike mularkey will come back to call the offense, since he lost play calling in miami.
