Jags vs Titans

Tomlin gets heat not for the here and now. He gets heat for a decade of fan frustration.

You know what lessens that?

Winning

You know what adds to that? Blowout losses in the playoffs.

Stay tuned for which one...

Coming soon to a theater near you...
Thats true, and undeniable.
Being disgusted with his failures is precisely why no one wants to give a coach we despise any credit for starting Rudy.

But then to counter my own argument:
Tomlins move to start Rudloph was merely an act of desperation. A shot in the dark. Not a "genius move" in the least.

I guess the positive thing to come out of that is that it shows that Tomlin wants to win in the worst way.

haha... winning in "the worst way", yeah he's done that too, but no pun intended.
 
Nope. One game at a time.

Coach Tomlin has figured out how to win without Minkah and his starting ILBs.

I, for one, am going to at least give them a fighting chance...

Let us see if he remembers how to win a playoff game. It is time for him to step up..
 
Correct! Would have been nice had shades started him earlier. Perhaps the Pats game.
I keep seeing/reading this.

Explain, why would any HC jump over his #2, at the time, to insert his #3, at the time???

Mitch played himself off the field with piss poor play. The only reason he was in the field is because Kenny got out the pocket to early and got injured.

Let's go back to Ben's career start. Can we agree that he was the best QB on the roster and was #3??? What happens if Maddox and the other bun don't get hurt??? When does Ben get his chance???

Rudy has learned and is now showing his skills. He earned his PT.

You jump over the 2 if they are showing no signs of appropriate play. Mitch wasn't the starter. He was a backup you owe no backup anything. You keep them on a short leash. You shouldn't need three bad losses to realize you need a change. Halftime of game 2 of Mitch sucking it up I bench him 10 out of ten times.

I don't see it that way. As a matter of fact, I'm going to go back rewatch those 3 games.

What's the point? I want to see if the blame is only on Mitch...
 
The whole team needs to win. Not just one person.
He needs to guide this team to a win. Put them in a position to win. That is a head coaches job. Make adjustments in the game if needed.

I know you like Mike but any coach needs to do this. Especially one that hasn't had playoff success in awhile.

Sure rewatch them, I will save you some time though. Mitch blew chunks.

Mitch was bad, the line was bad, the defense was bad....Definitely wasnt all on mitch, but he certainly didnt do himself any favors.

I know, we all like the whole team. Maybe minus Mitch 😁. But Steelers are overdue for a playoff win. Not sure anyone can deny this ..

Mason actually had a better training camp than Trubisky for one.
Mitch played poorly in the second half of the Cardinals game.
Mitch got benched last season after poor games.
I think Mason should have and been the number two coming out of training camp but Mitch was one of the guys Tomlin wanted along with Kenny so Mason got buried on the bench,
I was one of the guys that was hoping we signed Mitch prior to the 2022 season. I was was wrong!
Mitch is careless with the ball and thinks he’s a gunslinger but he’s not. He makes poor decisions and throws into double coverage and cannot be trusted.
I think Mason never really got a true shot to be number two and just overlooked and cast aside.
 
Well if we play Buffalo hope it’s on Saturday
More rest since we played yesterday and they play late game tonight
Also there’s a 70%chance of snow in Buffalo Saturday

The Steelers struggled in the rain, I prefer blue skies...

Smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies
Do I see
