What changes will Steelers’ Mike Tomlin make now that he’s staying for 2024? OC search progress?

On the Wednesday episode of the North Shore Drive podcast, presented by Mike's Beer Bar, host Christopher Carter welcomes Post-Gazette Steelers insider Ray Fittipaldo. The two react to news from colleague Gerry Dulac that coach Mike Tomlin will return in 2024 following the team's NFL wild card playoff loss to the Buffalo Bills on Monday.

 

What changes will he look to make, assuming a contract extension is coming? Could he move on from defensive coordinator Teryl Austin? Or do injuries to key players including T.J. Watt, Cam Heyward and Minkah Fitzpatrick give the unit a bright future if Austin returns? What will Tomlin look for in hiring an offensive coordinator to replace Matt Canada? And how will he handle the quarterback situation between Mason Rudolph and Kenny Pickett after Rudolph proved a solid replacement for Pickett with the season on the line? Our duo tackles those topics and more.
