    So it's all about continuity then?

    Then why hasn't the Brown family and Marvin Lewis won multiple championships?

    Continuity only works when you have the RIGHT FRONT OFFICE staff in place.

    Everything else then falls into place.

    We can only hope Holmgren is still here 15 years from now.

    because lewis sucks.

    bullshit. try having the right GM that knows how to draft talented players that stay on your team for more than 2 years and not firing a coach in two years when you need five years.

    We can only hope Holmgren is still here 15 years from now.

    you mean heckert. only thing holmgren has proven is that he can suck down a 12 pack of donuts with a gallon of eggnog on the side.

  • Yeah i have alot more Faith in Heckert then ive had in anyone else thats been here for awhile, talent wins in this league so if we keep drafting smart then i dont care who coaches or how we get it done...The peices will be there

  • Yet the success of the franchise strictly hinges on Dick Lebeau according to Gipper. I was behind the "keep mangini" train last month because maintaining that continuity is paramount. Holmgren went a different direction and purposely brought in guys he's familiar with to some capacity. It could be the start of the mentioned continuity. Either way the article highlights EXACTLY why there isn't a Steeler demise in sight and why the Steelers are a model franchise. Love it or hate it, those are the facts.

    Here is a fact: The Steelers have not made a Super Bowl in which Dick LeBeau was not their Defensive Coordinator since the 1979 season.

    Are they well organized and stable under Dan Rooney's ownership? No doubt. But the above fact remains a fact.

  • Yeah Dick LeBeau is the Bread and Butter for Pitt, once hes gone they better find a pretty good replacement because theres no better...Plus if my memory serves me correct he was a Buckeye wasnt he

    All of which is ridiculously short sighted. Mike Tomlin is a GREAT, GREAT Coach, easily in the top 5 and I'd argue the top 2. Dick Lebeau is tremendous but he's not the only reason for the success the Franchise has had since his return. As far as a replacement is concerned we have one on the team already in Keith Butler. He's turned down a few jobs elsewhere to stay with the Steelers because the job has been "promised to him" after Lebeau retires. Tomlin is also a hell of a defensive mind in his own right. I'll wait for the "when Lebeau retires the Steelers are done threads" to crop up soon.

    Prove otherwise. Seriously outside of the Hoodie what Coach has been better? He's 100% in the top 5 and that much is unarguable. He dealt with the Ben suspension, all the off season drama, several key injuries AND followed a Hall of Fame Coach. He's going to now his second Super Bowl and the team hasn't missed a beat. He commands the locker room, commands the media and his players respect him. He kept what worked and made the rest his own. He's also had 4 solid drafts. I'd really like for you to make a argument otherwise or just do some digging of your own and read several of the major media rags saying the same damn thing. Tomlin is a damn good Coach. Period and top 5, arguably top 2 in the league. Seriously prove otherwise. I'll wait.

    Tomlin is a top 5 Coach in the NFL. Attempt to argue otherwise and the article is actually pretty interesting Steeler fan or not.
