Mike Tomlin hilariously shrugs off risky play-calling inquiry
Taking risks, making bold moves, and securing victories any way they come are just a few aspects of Mike Tomlin's high-level coaching that benefit the Pittsburgh Steelers. Throughout their Week 10 contest against the Washington Commanders, the Steelers executed a variety of risky play calls across all three phases of the game—some of which succeeded, while others fell short.
During Monday's press conference, when asked if Russell Wilson and his dynamic deep-threat ability affect riskier decision-making, Tomlin responded with a smirk: 'No, we're gonna take risks on defense and special teams anyway.'
While fans may argue against the destructive potential of relying on risk over strategy, Tomlin has managed to balance this razor-thin line, combining both elements when calling plays and securing critical victories in 2024 as a result.
The Steelers may need to once again lean on Tomlin's willingness to take risks as they face a pivotal Week 11 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on November 17th at 1:00 PM EST.
