Greetings Steeler fans. Bears fan here.

I was told to come here by Bears fans, since I posted on our sub that with our roster as is, Coach Tomlin would have us at a minimum 6-5.

I don’t know if Coach T calls plays, but based on the recent firing of Matt Canada (anyone think that dude should have been a hockey coach???), I think the offensive play calling & game-plans are subject to the OC, therefore it is possible we still have Luke Getsy as our OC.

Coach Tomlin is probably my favorite NFL HC. I especially like how he was able to moonlight on the TV show House early in his career. Haha, JK. But I really do like how you guys are constantly winning, competing for division titles, making the playoffs. It just feels like, from afar, that he is top tier HC talent. As in, top 5.

Also, what do you think your offense would look like if Justin Fields was your QB instead of Pickett?

Cheers. Thanks.

    Tomlin is a floor raiser. So yes he would likely have your team performing better than it is currently but that’s not saying much because the Bears are a 3 win team. On the flip side however I don’t think he would win you a Super Bowl. The Bears would never give Tomlin the level of leeway and stability necessary for him to run the team successfully for a long time. The other part is Chicago is not great drafting and while Pittsburgh isn’t great these past few seasons we have enough hits for Tomlin to work with so we’re not complete ass.

    I think our offense would look the same, maybe marginally better overall. Fields has better highs than Pickett and the rushing ability but his floor and regular games aren’t that different from Picketts. In addition he has a turnover problem which is a big no-no with our current team. He also struggles with the same things which is accuracy, reading the field, and pocket presence. Fields just has the physical talent to make more highlight plays out of nothing than Kenny.
