NFL Power Rankings After Week 7: Steelers just keep winning, as usual under Mike Tomlin - Yahoo Sports

For Mike Tomlin, the easy decision would have been sticking with Justin Fields. The Pittsburgh Steelers were 4-2. Most head coaches mindlessly stick with the status quo when they're winning games.

By now we should understand, Tomlin is a good coach for a reason.

Tomlin went to Russell Wilson, and Wilson played well while the Steelers set season highs in yards and points against an allegedly talented New York Jets defense. They're 5-2 and while that's a surprise, the foundation for the Steelers is solid as always. The Steelers still have to battle a tough remaining schedule, though that looks a bit easier now with the Cleveland Browns falling apart.

We should assume that Tomlin will hit the right buttons and the Steelers aren't going anywhere this season. That shouldn't be a surprise by now.

Here are the power rankings going into Week 8 of the NFL season:
