We have more talent than that… geez us they really have got themselves in a pickle… the chargers are killing it over there with noll jr as hc and half the play roll on defense… it’s coaching!!! Butler, Canada, randy fuknutz are behind the times! I can live with tomlin but our coords have to be rethought! I’m sick of rehashing the obvious on here, it’s been clear as a bell and has been for a while. the 11-0 was a red herring we had veteran team in middle of pandemic but once things settled coaches figured out butlers defense could not stop run and randy fuknutz’s offense couldn’t run the ball we have been getting bbq’d every since. Ben’s getting all the blame but it’s coaching!!!
fuckity fuckity **** ****

The team has assumed Tomlin’s identity...
They give good press conference but can’t get **** done between the lines. A coach that gives up during games trying to keep it close will have a team that does the same...pitiful
It will be like this until he goes, Super Ben ain’t here to mask all the weakness of the coaching staff anymore.
Get rid of the entire offensive side, bring in Bienemy (or any coach that is a Rooney rule hire-that’s our prospect pool) and let the new HC decide Butler’s fate.

Yes without a doubt our coaching sucks from the top down but with the exception of a couple players, I'm not really sure the talent is up to par. I think both aspects need a lot of attention. Maybe the talent is there and they're not being managed properly. Maybe a flushing of coaches similar to when Cowher took over would bring back the mindset of coaching to the players strengths as opposed to forcing them into a game plan that simply doesn't match their skills. You know the round peg, square hole scenario.
That said it would be interesting to see how many of our players would actually start on a team that is a legitimate playoff contender. I think most would be on the bench but that's just my .02.
Don't forger in our last three playoff games, all losses, our opponents scored 40 or more points in each of them.

I am pretty sure that Hairball has won more playoff games than Tomlin.
Except Ben is still here. See 2019 if you want to make a post Ben analogy.
IMHO it's Ben and injuries scuttling this season thus far.

If they actually ever do change head coaching then I say gut the entire staff, Head coach is going to say I want my own scheme but with the Rooney history they usually keep at least one cordinator to help the new coach learning the way. Fault with that is in the past coaching changeto Tomlin the Cordinator(s) were quality cordinators,....... not so much with this regime.
MORE reason to dump Butler as DC, maybe keep as LB coach but that would depend on "D" scheme.

Hairball has seemed to do more with less than our guy who has seemed to do less with more.

True Cope but there are HC things contributing on the season as well.
1) To big of gamble with the low investment on OL
2) In game adjustments / decisions that dishearten the team
3) No answer or steping in to help change the current offensive play (ran out of bullets)
With players coming back off injury and the OL getting a little more experience this season could turn to not being a fail. Coach Tomlin has contributed to get us to this point as well as Ben & injuries.

We're officially, "historically bad" at this point.
In fairness, some of those points were on pick 6's and other turnovers from the O, but still....
I was around for 1991 when we had a 5 or 6 game stretch where the defense scored more points than the offense did.
I still think Shades will work some magic or get lucky like he did in 2019 with no Ben and finish 9-8 or 8-9 so the Tomlin ball washers can say "Never a losing season" or "Only one losing season by one game and the refs robbed us against Green Bay".
