Letter to the editor: Tomlin should go

Tribune-Review

I agree with the letter-writer who suggested firing Steelers coach Mike Tomlin (“Fire Steelers coaches,” Dec. 29, TribLIVE).

After the fourth-down call in New Orleans, giving the ball to the Aints, they scored. This showed he didn’t know how to preserve a lead.

Why would Tomlin go for a “fake punt,” leading by 4 on the Steelers’ own 42-yard line? It was like he wanted to give the Aints the ball in scoring position, rather than punt to make them have to score from deep in their own territory.

When looking for a replacement, the Steelers can look at Nick Saban, or some proven winning coach from somewhere.
