Mike Tomlin continues to play head games with the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterbacks and has no intention of letting go.
Tomlin seems bothered by the Steelers media’s constant questions about who the starting quarterback is and why it’s not Justin Fields. But he has no one to blame but himself.
“It’s not necessary,” Tomlin replied Asked why he didn’t start Fields, he said: “I told you the variables of the week. That hasn’t changed. He’s going to walk into that building with that mindset tomorrow and so I really think there’s no need to do that sometimes because there’s a myriad of complex decisions to make.”
“I’ve learned to take them when it’s appropriate and when it’s not necessary. As we sit here right now, when Russ gets to a point of appropriate health and we have a decision to make, I’ll make it and I’ll announce it and I’ll be really transparent about it, but until then, I don’t care how much you ask me, I have no intention of making a decision that’s not necessary at this point.”
Tomlin’s focus remains on winning games. As long as Fields continues to help the Steelers do that, Russell Wilson will continue to watch from the sidelines.
