The Pittsburgh Steelers have been very successful under the leadership of Mike Tomlin. If it seems like they've always been good under Tomlin, it's because they've always been good under Tomlin. In 15 years, Pittsburgh has never had a losing season, an incredible achievement in the NFL. Tomlin was asked about breaking the NFL record and offered a very Tomlin-like response.

“Not as I sit here today, and I say that humbly,” Tomlin answered when asked if the accomplishment was meaningful to him, via ESPN's Brooke Pryor. “Our agenda, this year, is to get into [the] single-elimination tournament and then pit our skills against others in that single-elimination tournament in an effort to win the world championship. That's our mentality every year.

That is exactly how Steelers fans would expect Mike Tomlin to respond. Tomlin clearly didn't want to make it about himself, instead proceeding to talk about Pittsburgh's goal: to get into the playoffs and win the Super Bowl.

Tomlin's record achievement is the longest such streak for a head coach in their first tenure with a team and the third-longest for a head coach at any point in their career. Tomlin joins legendary head coaches Tom Landry and Bill Belichick.

In a way it's fitting. Tomlin joined Belichick as one of the few head coaches to achieve a record, then offered up a very Belichick-ian answer to the question about it.

Maybe one day, Mike Tomlin will look back and say fond things about the NFL record he broke. But not now. Tomlin has a job to do: helping the Steelers win.
