Mike Tomlin should ‘look into’ leaving Steelers: Ryan Clark
NY Post
It may be best for both Mike Tomlin and the Steelers if they go their separate ways.
That’s according to former Steelers captain and ESPN personality Ryan Clark, who suggested to TMZ Sports that Tomlin explore other opportunities.
“Coach Tomlin should look into whether or not his voice is better suited somewhere else,” Clark said. “Whether or not the cachet that he will carry from what he’s done in Pittsburgh will help another locker room more than it’s helping the locker room in Pittsburgh.”
Tomlin has led the Steelers to a .500-or-better record in every season he’s been at the helm since taking over for Hall of Fame coach Bill Cowher in 2007.
Clark, who played eight seasons with the Steelers and won a Super Bowl with the team next to safety Troy Polamalu, has been a longtime supporter of Tomlin and said that the Steelers should not fire him.
Instead, he wants to see Tomlin get a chance on another team, similar to how Andy Reid left the Eagles for the Chiefs after falling just short throughout his time in Philadelphia.

We might as well start talking about this now. As early as next Tuesday, it’s at least possible that Carlos Beltran will earn the 75 percent of the vote necessary to gain entrance to the Hall of Fame. And when that happens — if not now, then some year soon — it’s going to be a most interesting thing to watch how Mets fans react.
The Knicks hit the midway point of the 82-game season with the third-best record in the Eastern Conference and the fifth-best in the entire NBA.
The Jets didn’t play a game this past weekend. They, of course, don’t play games at this time of year, having established that pattern by missing the playoffs the past 14 seasons.
