The Pittsburgh Steelers have reportedly already made up their mind regarding Mike Tomlin's NFL coaching future.

“Man, I’ve been on the hot seat for 19 years,“ he said with a deadpanned look. Tomlin was then asked if he felt he had something to prove to the fans last week, to which he replied, “I always feel like I have something to prove. Not necessarily to anyone in particular, but that’s just the spirit in which I go about what I do professionally.”

The noise in Pittsburgh turned vicious after Dec. 1. After the 7-26 loss, “Fire Mike Tomlin” chants cracked through Acrisure Stadium after the loss to the Buffalo Bills. It has been one of the rare moments in Pittsburgh football where a fan base openly questioned the franchise’s longest-tenured coach,

A team source told FOX Sports' Ralph Vacchiano there's "virtually no chance" the Steelers will fire Mike Tomlin. But a lone win over the Ravens won't be enough to quell hot seat talk as the team has to make a decision on his 2027 option soon.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin had a hilarious reaction when first learning of Philip Rivers' return to the NFL.
