The Baltimore Ravens have fired head coach John Harbaugh after 18 seasons, ending a tenure that included a Super Bowl victory but recent playoff disappointments. The decision came two days after a heartbreaking 26-24 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 18, where a missed field goal cost them the AFC North title and a playoff spot. Owner Steve Bisciotti praised Harbaugh's contributions while announcing the difficult change.
Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin announced his departure on Tuesday after 19 seasons, ending an era with one Super Bowl victory, three appearances, and unwavering contention. The move follows a 30-6 wild-card playoff loss to the Houston Texans—the team's seventh straight postseason defeat—and comes amid AFC North shakeups, including the firings of Baltimore's John Harbaugh and Cleveland's Kevin Stefanski. Steelers president Art Rooney II called the day emotional but not entirely unexpected.
