Who do you think is the most out of touch? GM? Rooneys? Tomlin?
Tomlin is a fraud, number one. The next time he out-coaches someone will be the first.
But obviously the buck has to stop with Rooney. He loves the "3 coaches in 50+ years". He loves the string of non-losing seasons. No joke, Tomlin, the prior GM and Rooney have ALL said the playoffs are a lottery and what matters is just getting there. Complete pass for Tomlin routinely having his teams unprepared and incapable of competing in the playoffs.
Also, at this point, probably doesn't want to deal with the politics of it all. The national media is over-the-top with unearned praise for Tomlin. He almost always gets a pass (except from, ironically, former players and some Steeler legends). The Rooney rule is named after his father. Of course, none of that prevents him from simply not renewing Tomlin's contract.
Same Rooney that told Cowher - after 13 years - it was "time to win a SB". It's been 17 years since Tomlin won a SB. And 3 wins in the last 15 years in the playoffs, with one of those gifted by the inept Marvin Lewis and CIN Bengals.
Absolutely no way any other NFL team wouldn't have fired Tomlin for what he's put on tape the last decade and a half.
