Mike Tomlin: Steelers defense is capable of doing ‘historic things’ in 2025

It’s safe to say that Pittsburgh Steelers Coach Mike Tomlin is to please what I saw from defense in three weeks training camp. He recently shared in the hopes of unchacacterically bold.

“We feel really good about hope this group” Tomlin said Tuesday at 102.5 WDVE The way of sports illustrated. We have gotta write the story, but we’ve got enough talent, we’ve got enough schematicas to make a great thing. And when I say great, I am the historical things. “

Tomlin’s optimism is definitely intelligible. This offseason, Steelers went to the better against run and in the communication in the back of the trees in the last Game in the last 2014 at the wild card a AFC to the raven in the wild card from AFC to a AFC. From Tomlin’s Comments that’s clear that it feels that steelers are not achieved that and some of you.

Pittsburgh’s defensive acquisitions this offseSeason includes the future hall of the report Defensive Darius killed and Jalen Ramsey and fellow veteran defensive backs Jale Thornhill, Paul Clark and Brandin Echols. The steelers and acquired promising rokies in a protective line of Derrick Harmon, Yahya black and extra linebacker Jack Sawyer. Hi new acquisitions to the defense that now includes the former defensive player year tj watt, former for a bowl linebacker Patrick Queen, and all for defensive armor Cam Heyward.

Not surprise, the story Pittsburgh’s defense is one The main takeaways in the first week of training camp. One of the street immediately was steelers’ by using Ramsey, who will start to free health but will be to make a little about everything. Ramsey is a quick impact on the camp included or intercept Aaron Rodgers in the third team practice.

One with Tomlin, Pittsburgh’s defense made a quick impression in a new steelers receptacle DK Metcalf, who recently gave the unit last honor.

“I think the best defense I’ve ever seen” Said Metcalf. “There are some dogs in the field and tip my hat, because they come to work every day. We have some election but to get better.”

Tomlin knows something or two when it comes to undergraduate historically dominant defenses. In 2002, who was defensive back coach in the Buccaneers defense has recorded Crater Record five interceptions in their win over the raiders. The buccaneers’ defended featured four future hall of famers.

In 2008, Tomlin provision on a Steelers defense, which was No. In 1 NFL In scoring, passing passes allowed and the third and red zone efficiency. The defense featured defensive player in the year James Cicero (who returned to interception 100 yards to the score in the year’s Crater) The Future Hall of the report of the safety of Troy Planalu.

While this year’s defense has a potential to make historic things, there are some legitimate concerns. Specifically, Age is a question mark as Pittsburgh has four starters on age 30, between 36 years heyward; Who is currently staging a hold-in. Vice versa, Armon, Black and Sawyer will win the Proverbs Rookie Wall.

Tomlin rarely makes a bold claims that this is a memorable one backfired. Made headlines during the 2017 time with statement that her team “If you win it” Prior to Pittsburgh’s Saturday 15 Showdown with good things. The Steelers and lost to new England before getting upset by Jaguars in AFC Division by.

It’s safe to say that Steelers Fans Hope that Tomlin’s latest predicted ages better than one. If it happens that it is not only a result in historically good defense, to even lead to the steelers snapping their eight years drought without a playoff win.
