Does Mike Tomlin need to go?

• Steelers  16 - Bengals 10
• 35 yard middle finger up the middle of the field to Pat Friermuth, 
• Offensive process was visibly vastly more effective than it’s been at any other point during the 2023 season.
• Kenny & Najee had massively redemptive games
• Strategically, the middle of the field was targeted to a dramatically higher degree (7 completions) with 2 deep completions (1 to each side), AND there was finally a successful screen pass
• Muth carved up the middle of the field for over 100 yards after only accumulating 60 yards TOTAL in weeks 1-5
• George Pickens was still underutilized
• Dionte had a nightmare Dionte game\
• THIS is the Kenny we expected to see after the preseason
• This Canada issue was largely caused by Mike Tomlin (we assume) sticking by Canada, but the fact that the team mostly kept its mouth shut throughout the drawn-out process is a testament to what an insanely tight ship he runs
