The Pomp And Joe Show · Nick Kostos would trade T.J. Watt, thinks Brian Flores should be next coach · 16 Jan 2026 podcast

I actually feel like everyone else wins as a result of this, and it's rare that happens in sports, right?

I think Mike Tomlin wins because now he gets to go and do TV for a year and decompress.

And then the Steelers will own his rights and maybe they end up trading him and get some compensation for him.

But he'll be able to pick his next team, to pick his next spot, and probably one with a young established quarterback.

And there's the expression, right?

You either die the hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

And Mike Tomlin, right, wrong, or indifferent, and I think it's probably like a combination of both, was kind of becoming the villain.

And we can look back, Joe and Donnie, to the game on November 30th against the Bills.

It was not that long ago.

Buffalo goes into Pittsburgh and steamrolls the Steelers.

The fans are booing Renegade and chanting, fire Tomlin in the fourth quarter.

So for Mike Tomlin, you know, I kind of feel like there was no way out of this scenario for Tomlin and the Steelers.

I think he wins by getting out of Pittsburgh.

That's not an anti-Steelers organization or Pittsburgh thing.

I think that he probably needed a reset.

In the same way that the Steelers desperately needed one also.

You know, we talk about cycles in life, whether they're cycles of abuse or addiction in life and in your personal life.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been mired in the cycle of nine and eight and of ten and seven for way too long.

where it reaches the point where in like in life and in sports right like life and sports are not checkers it's not like what's right in front of me like let's let's get to the playoffs this year like sometimes in life and in sports you can make the conscious decision to take a step back knowing that two or three moves down the board you can checkmate and you can win

I think that this, honestly, I think it's short-sighted by the Steelers to go, we need to compete every single year, has left them in a spot where you are in football purgatory.
