After 19 seasons as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Mike Tomlin has spent years facing AFC North opponents. Now, he returns to the division as an NBC analyst for Football Night in America.
Tomlin will call his fifth game as a studio analyst during Week 5 of the NFL season. The matchup he’ll cover is the Baltimore Ravens at the Atlanta Falcons, scheduled for Sunday, October 11.
Tomlin’s Take on Lamar Jackson
Tomlin’s commentary on the Ravens and quarterback Lamar Jackson is expected to draw significant attention. His remarks, made during an FNIA planning meeting on Monday, highlighted the challenges of defending Jackson as he approaches his 30th birthday.
"You won’t want to miss anything Tomlin says before any Sunday night game. You definitely will not want to miss what he has to say during the pregame show before Jackson and the Ravens face the Falcons in Week 5."
Tomlin’s insights come after years of coaching against AFC North rivals, including the Ravens. His observations on Jackson’s development and the Ravens’ offensive strategy are anticipated to be a focal point of his analysis.
