Does Tomlin still ride Cowher's coattails?

Your OP asked about the team--if he's still riding the coat tails. I'd say that's kind of hard to judge when you have a future HOF QB in his prime. The team continues do draft and acquire talent, but i've seen how that team has done when Ben has been down for a period of time. 

So, you prefer to evaluate a coach based on something that in most organizations is the responsibility of someone else?  Yes, I know that a coach is supposed to participate in the process, but most organizations hire someone whose main responsibility is acquiring talent.  The coach may advise the grocery shopping process, but his main responsibility is to be the chef once the ingredients are in place.  

As for how they've done without Ben, how many organizations do you know of that routinely carry two franchise quarterbacks on their roster?  You're holding up a ridiculous standard.
