LMAO, more Tomlin jibber-jabber,

But the players blame the players too.
You can read what Heyward said after the Cincy game. Maybe I’m wrong but it doesn’t seem like they blame the coaches or schemes very often, if at all.
People are willing to lie and keep their mouths shut for money.
 
Coaching, is my biggest concern.



Salute the nation
At this point, coaching should be everyone’s biggest concern. I don’t give a damn if the entire team is pro bowlers, we’re not winning under Tomlin. Remember his resume (or lack thereof) prior to coming here? Enough said ..
 
Know what the differences are between Tomlin and Jerod Mayo?

Mayo worked for an owner who had the balls to flush his incompetency after 1 season.
 
A common misconception imho that players adore Tomlin and want to play for him…if that is the case where are all these players lining up when free agency rolls around?

The Steelers generally pay at or above market value for free agents, and it’s usually past their prime guys that seek the cushy confines of a Tomlin led squad that can’t find work elsewhere.

Players adore money
I don’t see any FAs coming here taking a Tomlin haircut to play for this coach you alleged they “adore”. So who are these players that you assert are coming here cuz the “adore” him?

This team has had to trade for guys to plug gaps because they lack the draw in free agency or they pay top dollar for over the hill guys like Slay.

The only player I can think of that came here because of Mike is Aaron (and that’s because Mike allowed Aaron to work his own timeline, something Mike HaD to do because he’s ****** the QB situation for years). Had Mike not screwed up the QB situation for years he wouldn’t have been painted into a corner with that move, but Coach numbnuts indeed painted himself into that corner.

Sure, a has been hypocritical extortionist like Cam loves Mike…loves him because he can walk right over him like the chump he is.
I miss 2009-2023 when we had fans believing that NFL teams would be lining up for Tomlin’s Sevices if he were to be fired.

I think Belichick pretty much killed this theory. lol
 
He's been saying stupid things since 2009 to varying degrees. And I get it is frustrating. The guy seems to lack self awareness. You'd think if he didn't learn before last year he would have learned after the "that's why I'm highly compensated" comment. But he doesn't. Calling him out doesn't do anything or he'd have learned long ago also. I guess after all these years I just tune him out. For my sanity. It does help.
Tomln's been saying stupid things since 2009? Don't sell your boy short -- here's a famous gem from December of 2007:

"We don't live in our fears. We live in our hopes."

Ridiculous take. He was a rookie coach. What would you expect his resume to look like? At least put some God given sense or thought into your denigrating.
 
I’ll bet 6 months salary that Ben has said a whole lot more in certain social circles. Tomlin cost him and this organization 1 to 2 more rings.
Tomlin cost Ben?? Of all people you say Ben?? You would have been better off saying Brady.

Or perhaps they keep their mouth shut because they legitimately know they f-d up. There was much blame to go around for the Cincy loss between coaches and players alike. If you watched any film at all it wasnt entirely upon one or the other. I saw bad scheming in film study such as when Chase was wide open on the final drive and I saw players screw up their assignments such as when Benton moved out of his gap and allowed Brown to run 27 yards earlier in the game. Clearly youre a armchair QB for a reason because you suck even at that. It's really easy for people to be critical from the sidelines. Its far more easier apparently to be irrational and lack constructive criticism providing those takes especially if they have had a bone to pick since day one and lack any sort of objectiveness.

It couldn't possibly be because Jerod Mayo went 4-13 in his first season. Why you even picked Jerod Mayo is beyond me other then he's black. Why not Jeff Saturday or Brian Callahan??

Let’s be real. Our owner prioritizes DEI bull*hit, not someone who is capable and can deliver results.
Typical take from a ignorant white Nationalist like yourself who constantly uses DEI as an excuse or a reason for why Tomlin has a job. You should have said Affirmative Action if you had half a brain. DEI does not mean lowering the bar. If so you could point at way more white coaches who should have not been hired around the league as black ones. DEI simply allows people of different backgrounds to have access to the same opportunities without prejudice. Its not actually tied to race at all.

He won a SB and went to another and hes given the Steelers an opportunity to be involved in playoff talks regardless of the personnel he has had to work with especially at QB. I would say that he has showed he is both capable and delivered not to mention he's future Hall of Fame which is literally a backhand on your take.

Tomlin gets old players that were once good and now a little slower, less willing to tackle, but he pins his hopes that the aging player will return to his old glory. Everyone gets old. Aches. Pains. Slow down. Tomlin pops off and says how great his defense is. Yea....if it were 5 years ago maybe. Square pegs round holes. Tomlin thinks he can put a jigsaw puzzle together. He tries every year. Which young players has he " developed "? Herbig? He doesn't let him play enough. Highsmith? He had to move him to the right side and teach him a spin move. It worked. Highsmith is more easily neutralized now, they have tape on him. He can set the edge. Herbig isn't trusted to do that.

We have Bad Bunny for halftime. This shows you who they really want to entertain. It's not football fans like you. It's wokey fans that want Sanders at qb....because he is flamboyant. Not football. It's gold chains, rap videos. Megan Stallion has bigger thighs than Earl Campbell did in his playing days. Snoop dog, convicted of crimes. He's cool to this crowd. I can remember when he fell so far out of the limelight he changed his name to Snoop Lion, and nobody cared. So he changed it back. Many of you probably never noticed.

Now Saudi Arabia wants to host a game. They will get it. Watch who does the halftime show for them.
