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.
