Mike Tomlin is now in his 12th season as head coach of the Pittsburgh Steelers, and the team has won 116 games, six AFC North division titles, two AFC Championships and one Super Bowl.

But the Steelers have limped to an ugly 0-1-1 start through the first two weeks. Star running back Le'Veon Bell continues his holdout, still unhappy over how contract negotiations went in the offseason.

Wide receiver Antonio Brown didn't show up at team meetings on Monday, and Tomlin told reporters he was dealing with it. Multiple Pittsburgh Post-Gazette sports writers are accusing Brown of leading a circus in the locker room.

Thus, all of this is starting to make Tomlin look bad, and some sources told Bleacher Report's Mike Freeman that the 46-year-old head coach is starting to lose control of the locker room.

"It's a circus there, and Mike has no control over it," an NFC South assistant coach said. "He's one of the best coaches of my generation, but the players have too much control there."

Another assistant coach in the AFC North told Freeman that Tomlin can't be blamed because "Antonio Brown sometimes acts like an idiot."

Steelers icon Terry Bradshaw - who led the team to four Super Bowl titles in the '70s - also blasted Tomlin in a recent interview with Pittsburgh's 97.3 The Fan. Bradshaw said Tomlin is "really a great cheerleader guy," but he doesn't think Tomlin is in the discussion of great NFL coaches.

Tomlin is known for his relaxed and easy-going style with the players, and one can't take away all of the success it's brought to Pittsburgh. But with franchise leaders like Troy Polamalu, Hines Ward and Brett Keisel long retired, Tomlin has seemingly struggled to keep his team focused and disciplined.

Whether Tomlin is losing his locker room or not, it's hard to envision the Rooney family cutting ties with him after the season. He's only their third coach since 1969 (Chuck Noll 1969-91), and Bill Cowher (1992-2006), and has kept Pittsburgh going as an annual Super Bowl contender.

It's only two weeks into the season, but it's time for Tomlin to show the rest of the NFL he's got his players under control. Not only that, but he needs to get them back into the postseason to erase any doubts among other coaches.
