There isn't a head coach in the NFL more polarizing than Pittsburgh Steelers HC Mike Tomlin. If you ask 20 fans, you will get 20 different evaluations of Tomlin and his performance. But where does Tomlin rank among the rest of the NFL head coaches?
Action Network crunched the numbers based on social listening data on X and Reddit and based on their data, Tomlin is the most overrated head coach in the NFL. Here's what they had to say about the ranking.
The Steelers have been nothing if not consistent over the past several years, but after yet another early playoffs exit, fans are starting to lose their patience with head coach Mike Tomlin.
Pressure has mounted on Tomlin for the last few seasons to make changes to the team that could make them believable title contenders, yet they still can’t seem to find the momentum they need. According to our data, 3,120 fans have made their feelings known on social media, making Tomlin the head coach most likely to be described as overrated.
Tomlin's regular-season success is what he's hung his hat on but his failures in the playoffs and now his failure to develop a quarterback since Ben Roethlisberger's retirement are huge negatives in his Hall of Fame career.
