"No question, but that's not a new discussion. I remember when he came out of Wyoming, and I remember the comparisons then, and I saw that in him then so not surprised at the comparison is not surprised by his skill set and the things that he's capable of doing and the things in the style of game that he plays. Mike Tomlin. Josh Allen as the Steelers and Bills meet in the opener on Sunday. How do you feel about Mike Tomlin? Bulldog? I have old ton of respect for Mike Tomlin. I like Mike Tomlin. I suppose if he were my coach, like, you know, the coaching the team coaching the team in the city where I worked, Um yeah, it probably would be, um, you know, Be a little more nit picky about him, but I mean, he's been there a long time. They never are bad. Um, you know, there's probably stuff the fourth down, so you know all the stuff that you don't really study or or sit with when it's not your team. Um, but I I've always I've always admired. I've always admired him. I think he's I think he's I like how he sounds usually, and his team's performance sort of speaks for itself. I think he's been excellent. Yeah, that might be the exact right answer on Tomlin. I was I was hanging on every word there. Uh, like if I were on in Pittsburgh, I would be maybe needed nit picky. And I think You know that has its place. Sure, like the details are big, and I think that's exactly right. I think Tomlin is The results do speak for themselves and no losing seasons ever right, like, Not even so. He's handed Roethlisberger right like that. That's the the asterisk on that Sean McDermott. Might be a better coach than Mike Tomlin. But He doesn't have a Hall of Fame bound quarterback waiting for him when he gets there. And and Tomlin does, and he's two years or so into his job when or Roethlisberger is like three years in the league. Whatever it is when Tomlin takes over, so that's that's pretty nice luxury. The details part. I think Tomlin is probably Top five or maybe even better. Forgetting his team ready. That's not just emotion, but that's like preparation. A lot of that is maybe defensively but In terms of like game decisions. He's the worst. I mean, he's just the worst he he should have. He should have someone else do it right. Like he he really should. He should have someone else do that part of his job, But that will never happen. And it almost never happens anywhere. It will never happen here because look at his record. Well, one that's making decisions is different than having people advise you. I think we learned last year. I don't I don't know that I have the text saved anywhere. But McDermott named two guys that he leans on during games to like, help him. I don't know if it's exactly like red light yellow light green light, like Philadelphia talked about having when Doug Peterson and Frank Reich were there and they won the Super Bowl. But McDermott has conceded that he's got I assume these are analytics. And these are analysts data analysts that are helping him make decisions based on you know the data. Um and, um, so I guess I want to be surprised if almost any team doesn't at least have those people on staff at this point, How much of a conduit they are to the head coach during the games. Is, you know, something will never know. It's up to the coach to let you know, like, and I always found it. Um, I was. I was pleased that Philadelphia was his open with that information as they are. Or were and same with McDermott, although I don't know that he's ever said I'm doing whatever they tell me every time, you know, uh, well, that's right. And that's not that's. The Eagles was also that way, because that's what yellow was right. Right. Yellow was, it's up to you, coach right? And that's I. You know, I wonder how hard to sell. That's probably in that article has probably been reportedly how hard to sell. This was to Peterson. But it worked. He couldn't last. I mean, it's quarterbacks which quarterback was so bad? Yeah, like that eventually. It blew up kind of on all of them, but Yeah. I mean, Tomlin is he's a He's a star right? Like he's been there for so long. He's No, He's got a rank pretty high when it comes to winds. Now I don't have that open. I do have what I think is a fun Steelers list open and that is receiving Uh, catches actually career catches for the Steelers. This is a fun list. I'll bet you know who's first. Antonio Brown. Second, okay? Joe. Do you know who leads the Steelers all time and catches Heath Miller? Third Come on. Wow. That was a joke. Whoa! Third. That's amazing, isn't it? Yes. I mean, that is amazing. He is amazing. I mean, he was there for ever right? But still, he was never great, right? Yeah. I mean, did he ever catch 80 passes in a year? Probably. I guess if he's there six second leading receiver, right? Or what would you say It was 3rd 3rd 3rd? Yeah, um Boy who would be on top there because all the other guys like the famous guys, the Hall of Fame guys, right are in an era where you just weren't putting up huge. You know, 100 catch season was did not something that really existed for Lynn Swan or John Stallworth. So they wouldn't be at the top of this list. Is it? Hines Ward? Yes. Okay. Yeah, that was that was there. That's good. Hines Ward, Antonio Brown, Uh, Heath Miller. Wait a minute. No, I changed. That is right. Change the column. I was sorting by Hines Ward, Antonio Brown, Heath Miller, John Stallworth, Lewis Lips. Slaps nice Louis Lips makes the top for high if it catches for the Steelers. Then Lynn Swan than L B nickel. Okay, Who I don't know about that was in the fifties, like the Steelers were this awful franchise until Knoll and that those early seventies drafts. Then they became that dynasty that they were. They've almost really never quit. I mean, What is that 50 years They have almost always been good. Uh, Tom Levian Bell is eighth than Juju is ninth and then Franco Harris. That is the top 10 Tomlin, by the way, 22nd all time and winds with 1 45 to above Marv. He has more wins than marvelously. What's the number seventh? 22nd 22nd. Okay. 22nd all time and wins. Yeah, he's four behind cower. So that's all with Pittsburgh. So he's almost the writing a Steeler coach of all time. Whoa! Hold on a truck. No, no. Yeah, about that. Yeah. What's he won 93. That's the Tomlin is maybe two years away from that two good years away from that and say, three years away from that. None of those guys ever coached with any other team, right? I just sort of casually yesterday. It's funny that we we, like, ended up talking about Mike Tomlin here yesterday on the show. At some point, I and we were talking about them and him..

"Together we could learn, educate ourselves and make a difference for communities in need. As we continue the breakdown of round number two, the culture on the clock with 54. At 53, the Tennessee Titans going to the FCS level offensive tackle out of North Dakota State, Dillon Ratings and in You got a story about this young man, a young man that was a first team FCS All American. And how about the bison? He's been charged with protecting trade Lance's blind side and there's a small town guy lost his dad an early age and When you grow up in a town of about 3000 people is, he told us when he joined Freddie in the Freddie Fitzsimmons on Tuesday, he said I had about 500 dads. And so if you screwed up, you were going to get it 500 different ways. And that's that small town living But we brought up Can you play guard or tackle? He said. I'll play anywhere along the front. I'm a winner. I don't lose and we asked him. What was the last time you lost? Listen to this. My first My last lock where I put cleats on and played in the game was my first game in my junior year of high school. Wow. What happened? Do you remember? Uh, no, And that one was even above where we played a school. That was two classes above us. We scored four touchdowns, couldn't convert next two point. They scored three touchdowns, converted a two point conversion and their extra points and then they take the field goal to win it 25 to 24. Anyone in the detail he goes, and I don't carry with me at all. I promise you all I do is win. You put me on that offensive line. I'm gonna kick somebody's. You know what? I am a winner? No, By the way, the bison they want eight of her 98 of the last nine. FC has titles. That is a Mike Rabel player. That's a Mike Vrabel type pick. I think it's a home run for the Tennessee Titans TV. So I was just gonna say it like this is a really good job. When you look at their first couple of picks Caleb Farley, they lost three corners. Hopefully, he's we're going in story. And Isaiah Wilson was their first round pick a year ago. Swing and a Miss Sweet Hey, Dylan, right? It should come in and start right away. You know, when you look at S E s schools They go around and senior bowl and it wasn't too big for him. That was really encouraging. And he's a long, big frame guy. We haven't had almost 66 long arms, so I think he's a guy that could compete right away at right tackle. Okay. We currently have the sailors on the clock. I do want to say to when it comes to Ryan. Tannehill, look into these numbers, okay? As they just drafted to tackle when he is a clean pocket without pressures, Cube ers and 90. That's just behind Aaron Rodgers. That's it right When he's pressured. It fell to 21. That ranked 22nd. He needs a clean pocket. Maybe a zoo much as anybody else. Bart Scott, I'm I'm I don't know. Barn. You said the Washington football team was going to take a quarterback. They took a tackle. Now you're saying it's going to be the Steelers. When are we going to see a quarterback? Go in this small Blacksburg? What is this? Me? Honestly, What does this Nino In terms of the talent gap? We saw a cluster of quarterbacks go within the 1st 10 picks yesterday. We haven't seen a single one taken in the second round. Yet despite there being a real need Let's give Ryan Pace and cow Shanahan credit. Right Pace. Hey, we gotta go up and get Justin Fields Calcium and, hey, we got called to get Trey Lance because there's five and then let's draw a massive lie again. We could talk about Davis bills, and that's easy for us to do that because we're here. Talking about the value, but if you're trying to operate a franchise, this guy played five games and he has a you know, there's some questions about his knee. Kyle Trask. Very good. Throw. The football doesn't really have great mobility, which we know that's not where the game is going. And then Kellen mind someone that's gotten better under coach Fisher. But his accuracy has been a big concern. So l to answer your question. League is agreeing with a lot of Ah lot of people were saying that there was five and draw a line. The reason we kept speculating about the sixth quarterback O in the first round was to get the extra year on the contract. The pick is in Franco Harris at the podium. And let's not forget they need quarterback. They desperately need offensive line health care they need. David Harris. Okay. Alvin Mack Sun goes, we'll see what happens is Franco legendary Steelers running back from the seventies. You know they could. You know what? Though? That was me. They could have given the man an actual terrible towel. He had to swing his little mask around. It looks sad. The pick is Oh, they're going to go with tight end. Wow. The man Friar moves Protege States, Very Mac, Massachusetts. This guy is a really interesting player coming into the year at Penn State. He was gonna be the heir apparent to the next great tight end. Well, before Kyle pits came along, he played behind my Kosecki. He is a big strong Physical athletic tight end. This is a Pittsburgh Steeler. Bruner. Yeah, Bruno Mark cruder is a good comparison. I think this is a really good pick in this part of the draft. Again. I think they should have got an offensive line here. They don't have started like that. But they don't have a left tackle. They don't have a starting center and they haven't agent quarterback so Very interesting pick. I like the player. I'm not so sure This is what I would have done if I was Pittsburgh. Ian, What can you tell us about Pat Fireman Long conversation with his former offensive coordinator, Ricky Ronnie is now the head coach at Old Dominion, he said. That is quote an old school ballplayer loves everything about the game. The preparation, the camaraderie, the teammates, the boys in the room being coached, interacting with fans. Every bit of it these days healthy. He's gonna play 10 to 12 years in the league, then become a coach. He just loves the game loves playing ball. One of my favorite players that I have ever coached at any level in football is on brand for the still is running back soon. As you said old school. I was like on brand for the Steelers, because you think about you know Heath Miller as well, who was been robbed his burger emergency..
