www.steelers.com

MIKE TOMLIN was named the 16th head coach in PittsburghSteelers history on Jan. 22, 2007. Hired at the age of 34, Tomlinbecame only the third head coach hired by the Steelers since1969.

Tomlin became the youngest head coach in NFL history to bothcoach in and win a Super Bowl when he led the Steelers to a 27-23victory over the Arizona Cardinals in Super Bowl XLIII. By winningthe Super Bowl in only his second season as a head coach, healso became the fastest to win a Super Bowl title in Steelers history.

Tomlin is one of only seven coaches in league history to win aSuper Bowl within his first two seasons as an NFL head coach.

Tomlin has compiled a 37-20 record in the regular seasonduring his four-year head coaching career. His .649 winningpercentage after three-plus seasons is second-best in teamhistory. By leading the Steelers to a 9-7 record in 2009, Tomlinbecame only the second Steelers’ head coach to post winningrecords after each of his first three seasons.

The Steelers’ offense ranked seventh in the NFL (ninth passing,19th rushing) and became the first unit in team history to boast a4,000-yard passer, two 1,000-yard receivers and a 1,000-yardrusher in the same season. Pittsburgh’s defense ranked fifth inthe NFL (third vs. run, 16th vs. pass) while leading the AFC andfinishing one shy of the NFL lead with 47 quarterback sacks.

The Steelers continued to be dominant at Heinz Field underTomlin in 2009. Pittsburgh finished with a 6-2 home record in2009 after finishing 7-1 (2007) and 6-2 (2008) at home duringTomlin’s first two seasons. Tomlin’s 20-5 record and .800 winningpercentage at home after three-plus seasons ranks second inSteelers’ history.

The Steelers’ defense was dominant under Tomlin’s guidancein 2008, leading the NFL in total defense (237.2), pass defense(156.9), points per game (13.9), total yards per play (3.9), rushingyards per attempt (3.3), passing yards per attempt (4.7) and thirddown efficiency (31.4), and finished second in league rushingdefense (80.3).

Tomlin became only the second Steelers head coach to win hisfirst three games. During 2007, the Steelers became just the fifthteam in NFL history to win their first four home games by at least20 points.

Tomlin led the Steelers to a 10-6 record in 2007, and becamejust the second coach in team history to post a winning record,win a division title and earn a playoff berth in his inaugural season.

Tomlin was the NFL’s second-youngest head coach in 2007,and he became only the second Steelers coach in team history towin at least 10 games during his first year at the helm. TheSteelers posted a 7-1 record at home in 2007 and were 5-1 in theAFC North (3-0 at home).

Tomlin was a three-year starter at wide receiver at William andMary (1990-94) and finished his career with 101 receptions for2,046 yards and a school-record 20 TD catches. A first-team All-Yankee Conference selection in 1994, he established a schoolrecord with a 20.2 yards-per-catch average.
