Coaches of Steelers and Ravens likely to stay put regardless of playoff outcome
The Steelers and Ravens will meet for the 38th time in a playoff game tonight. Both teams face pressure, as the loser will deal with disappointment after missing a chance to advance in the postseason. The Steelers, who were expected to finish last in their division, have surprised many by winning 10 games this season. Despite a potential loss, coach Mike Tomlin is unlikely to be dismissed, as the team rarely fires coaches. Similarly, Ravens coach John Harbaugh is not expected to leave after a loss. Both teams would need a significant trade offer for a coaching change to occur, which is considered unlikely.
