Coach Tomlin. Who is involved in decisions about the coaching staff. Who makes final decision and who has most say.
 
I’m the smartest guy in the room. Of course it’s me!
No one knows more than me.
This is why Canada is still here and Najee continues to be the feature back. Won’t ever admit he made a mistake. Not the smartest guy in the room.
The guy has been a fraud and continues to hoodwink the owner.
 
I don’t live in my fears. I matriculate in a fashion of no eyelids. I hire based on a predominant assumption that the employees laboring under my administration will look dumber than me. Therefore I continue to have the admirable assumption that I am a winner and am held back by those less qualified than myself to achieve success in this line of work.

Translation : b u l l s h i t !!!!!!
 
This question is for Bob Nutting. "what is it about the Pittsburgh Pirates that attracts failed newspaper men to buy them?"

Not often you hear any of the coaches say they need to coach better. I definitely haven't heard that from Canada once.
 
And to be clear it is not just Canada. The oline play is below "the standard". The players execute. I just do not see open easy throws for Kenny like the 5 or 6 games I was in and out of yesterday. The play concepts don't make sense. Every second throw is a ridiculous sideline jump ball.

Definitely a lot ailing this team. 👍
 
I wouldn't say the defense is Championship level. But it's definitely playoff caliber. If the team fails that because of the OC whoever retained should also be gone.
 
DIC - Coach Tomlin, could you tell me what a “dig” route is and in what instance would you dye your hair blaze yellow instead of black-N-gold?

Coach T - I’m in my 17th year of agronomically correct usage of non-losing seasons in relation to scrap Iron purchases. Copper is the prize, so we must continuously strip down the water lines.

DIC - Can we find any “outside the organization” candidates that will actually come here, to coach under your expertise ?

CT - If one strays too far away from the pop-corn popper there may not be enough butter to go around. I see MEN amongst boys trying to fulfill their dreams of being a third world language transcriptionIst. I constantly tell those with no eye lids to keep listening and keep hustling, regardless of what street corner you are one.

DIC (final question) - Coach Tomlin, it is rumored you have a job that will never end———- when do you plan to retire from the STEELERS HC-ing job?

CT - What, I thought I was retired and only coming in to appease Art Deuce due to him still handing me blank / empty envelopes. I always was waiting for the opportunity and gumption to ask him what I’m suppose to do with the envelopes ? I haven’t been able to establish any kind of co-worker relationship close enough to ask one on the side. I continue to read the newspaper and cut out recipes for pumpkin pie & frosted rice crispy treats. My knowledge of Turnup harvest and coloring books have served me well in employee recruitment. What’s for lunch ?

Last week, QB coach Mike Sullivan said in an interview about Pickett that he sometimes gets too greedy forcing balls downfield…

Looking at the percentage of plays actually going downfield, id love for HCMT to clarify if ANY of the passes are supposed to be thrown downfield or if the entire gamplan is always short sideways throws …..
 
DIC - What was the main attribute as to why Coach Austin was retained and in doing so, what was the biggest downside as to why Coach Flores was not retained.

Canada is the biggest fraud Slash. I would love to question Ed Orgeron the former LSU Bayou Bengals HC who fired Canada in season in his first season as OC. I’ll bet he could give us an earfull.
Canada seems to push the blame towards the players. Kenny won’t say anything since he’s only in his second season.

This alone. Like if you were fired mid-season in college it's because of personality/behavior or you are a HS coach masquerade as college and if you are not even college this is a lot more.
 
I want someone to ask Tomlin why he finds 1 offensive TD per game over a 2+ year span is acceptable as the standard.
When you are in the moment it is bad, but when you look back beyond that period of time for the entirety of a tenure. There is no words and if there was they wouldn't be pleasant.
 
Talking about their self scout in bye week. As a JV HS coach I watch us in practice. I say the phrase that's a football player. ALOT. Meaning defense played by their rules properly but play concept, spacing, timingexecution make it a successful play consistently. How many times would Mike say that over these 5 weeks?
 
Mike, you have coached the Steelers for 17 season now. Why are you still a complete dumbass on gamedays? Why haven't you learned a single thing in reference to clock management? Why do you seem to suck the cocks of players who are not proving it on the field above another player? Fina; question = how long do you spend coming up with total bullshit lines that mean absolutely nothing, and do you realize that the rest of the world has caught on to this and think you are a total asswipe?
 
Edited to just this - "Mike, what in the hell were you and Canada thinking?" I'd love to hear the question asked just like that, but it would never happen.

I said that from game 1 vs the Niners.

Apparently Dulac is trying to start the narrative that a lot of it is on Kenny. I suspect to help take some of the heat off Canaduh. Good company man. He'll be on Tomlin and Rooney's Christmas list.

Which is ridiculous. What is the price of replacing Canada v. Kenny P.?

Some things are on Kenny, but when 5 out of six plays are blown up as soon as they are run then when one runs well and a player screws it up, can you really blame them?

So the narrative is that kenny is messing up the O, and so was Mitch… and Ben was too weak to throw 20 yards down the middle of the field ( but fine to throw 20 yards to the sidelines ) and before that Duck didn’t have the arm to throw over tge middle and Rudolph just was too afraid to throw it over the middle…

Conveniently, all of these problems resulted in virtually the same offensive problems somehow…

You could replace all 11 starters with Hall of Famers and unless they went no huddle and made up their own plays it would still be a mess. It's obvious to everyone but the Steelers that Canaduh has no playbook.
