Ryan Clark Wishes Mike Tomlin Would Leave Steelers So Fans Could See What “Terrible” Really Looks Like
Former Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark had some interesting comments about his former team and head coach Mike Tomlin during a recent appearance on ESPN’s “Get Up.”
Clark, who played for the Steelers from 2006-2013 and won a Super Bowl with the team in 2008, was asked about the Steelers’ current state and how they can get back to being a dominant team.
Clark’s response was surprising, as he stated that he wishes Tomlin would leave the Steelers so that fans could see what “terrible” really looks like.
“I wish Mike Tomlin would leave the Steelers, just so the fans could see what terrible really looks like,” Clark said. “Because right now, they’re just kind of okay. They’re just kind of middle of the road. And I think if Mike Tomlin were to leave, you would see a drastic drop-off.”
Clark’s comments are likely to be met with skepticism by Steelers fans, who have grown accustomed to Tomlin’s consistent winning ways. Tomlin has been the Steelers’ head coach since 2007 and has led the team to two Super Bowl wins and seven AFC Championship Game appearances.
While Clark’s comments may be seen as controversial, they do highlight the high expectations that come with being a Steelers fan. The team has a rich history of success, and fans expect to see a winning product on the field every year.
It’s worth noting that Clark’s comments may also be motivated by his own personal feelings towards Tomlin. Clark has been critical of Tomlin in the past, and it’s possible that his comments are driven by a desire to see Tomlin fail.
Regardless of Clark’s motivations, his comments are sure to spark a lively debate among Steelers fans. Do you think Clark is right, or is he just stirring up controversy? Let us know in the comments.
