see, what you're not understanding is that it's a lot more comfortable for the Tomlin Haters to be able to make a complete 180 on players they do not like than it is Tombert since Tombert must live with their decisions and do not have a
in their arsenal.
All teams have an easy button. It's called moving on from the player and looking elsewhere. And many successful teams do it, whether it costs in the short term or not. It's not like we were FORCED by some NFL bylaw to lock up Gilbert, Cortez, Worilds, etc. Or forced to start Cam Thomas or Ramon Foster.

That's literally the most in-depth Tomlin defense I've ever seen on here.
I'm not exaggerating. His cheerleaders never go into specifics. They point to W-L records and SB appearances from years ago, then abandon the discussion.
and this is precisely why you are not an NFL GM.
your entire ******* salary cap would be bogged down with dead weight from cutting players 11 games into the season and filling their roster spot with street free agents.
no, no one said we should lock up Gilbert...nor Cortez...nor even Worilds, so that, in fact, is an invalid argument. That, in fact, was never stated by anyone on this board.

Not sure I would "cut" guys 11 games into any season. I just know I wouldn't be as married to awful players as you seem to think NFL teams are. I said "11 games"... when?
...but we did. The FO locked up the first two and handed the third about 5x his worth for this year. According to you, the front office had NO. CHOICE. They must live with their decisions and can't do 180s, remember?
TOMLIN: Kevin, we have an issue. DEFCON ******* 20. Marcus Gilbert will be an unrestricted free agent in 2016!!!!
DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNN
COLBERT: Well **** the bed! What do we do?!?
TOMLIN: What can we do, Kev? Lock him up NOW!! Yes, two years before he hits the open market. NOW! I can't imagine this top-tier front line without Gilbert! And besides - WE CAN'T DO 180s!!!! He's only been here - and awful - for four seasons! How do you expect me to get a read on a guy in four seasons?!? And how could we replace him if we wanted to?? DO MARCUS GILBERTS GROW ON TREES?!!?!?!?
COLBERT: *draws up contract with a sly grin*
TOMLIN: *returns grin, turns to leave, walks into the ******* doorway*
Did I ever say it was? But while we're on the subject.. whom did I say we should cut "11 games into the season"? And which "street free agents" did I want to sign?

This post is too stupid to respond to. I tried. I wrote out about half a sentence. But I couldn't get any further.
Yay no losing seasons!!!! 3 non-playoff seasons, but never below 8-8!!!!!!! I hope they make hats to commemorate that.

he sucks and you're all about getting rid of guys whose needle are not pointing up, obviously.
uh, no. I never, ever said that. In fact, if you exercised your eyeballs and practiced reading comprehension instead of reading what you want, I clearly stated that no one here said we should lock those guys up. For ****'s sake, you even QUOTED me stating that.
well, clearly, if someone sucks, you're driving the train to lead them out of town. so if we hand someone a good portion of our salary cap to bring them into the fold and then cut them, as you state certain players should be, but not state that you would want to do just that since that would mean that a player who sucks can suck as long as he is someone you once had a hard-on for but do not have a hard-on for any longer since that player sucks, but doesn't quite suck to a certain degree that would define his suckitude, yet he does suck because he sucks and we shouldnt have signed him, even if you stated that he could or would nail down the position at an all-pro level for many years to come, though his play is nothing better than someone we'd be forced to sign off the street if cut since we'd owe money...and I'm sure that if you could take a firm stance on something instead of being wishy washy and not exactly stating something but using incredulous adjectives to describe exactly what you would do or want to do without actually doing just that, then, well, things could or would prove that you're goddamn genius just waiting to be tapped to take over a clearly floundering enterprise and be the directional rudder that they most obviously need. And since your modus operandi is to cherry pick players and use some stats to show that they're good or not good or maybe really good, but not really, really good nor elite, but just ok, but not average, but better than good but not so good that they could be called good since then you'd be pegged into admitting something, I refuse to cherry pick any player at all that you may or may not want to sign simply because it would go right along with how you like to post clearly nothing worthwhile whatsoever, but prefer to **** all over others' opinions just because that is the type of ****-******* ************ you really are.

When will you grasp that WINS - even those from six years ago - are credited to the head coach. There are no other factors involved; we won because Mike Tomlin is our coach.
LOSSES go on the stupid players, who are coached flawlessly from Monday until 12:59 on Sunday, but forget everything Tomlin & Co. said during the week. D'oh!!
obviously,,, but not to Bermuda.. He's in that triangle where up is down,, down is up ... etc...

You sound like a broken record......and when we make the playoffs this year and possibly win our opening round game then what ? At some point youre gonna start losin venom. Right now this team is still building....its got quite a number a new faces its been integrating this season...22 new ones to be exact...thats almost half a roster. And if 8-8 is our worst during a rebuild, ill take it...if thats as low as the valley gets, ill take it every goddamn time because theres over 20 plus other franchises that during their worst years, will do a lot worse than 8-8 for two straight years. We could end up 8-8 this season again, or even 9-7, or 10-6. But a playoff qualification and a win would suggest things are swingin back upwards. And many Tomlin haters will despise the notion things are turning around.
But ill watch and wait and see how this season turns out....we have won 4 out of 5. Heres to a strong finish like last year.
Mitchell is getting some strong negative press about his use of social media and "tweets". "Obviously" this Mitchell isn't very bright. After the decision to part ways with LeGarrett Blount one would be more discreet when attacking fans on one's Twitter account, it's public info dumbass.

So Mouth Mitchell Shows His Character
What the hell is going on over there in Steeler land? I just read on ESPN and CBS Sports that Mike Mitchell the outstanding safety (at least in his mind) of the Pittsburgh Steelers, pulled a real classy move on Twitter.
He responds on two separate occasions telling one person that they can just die and the other he tells them they will die broke. What the hell is it with the F/A's that we've been signing here? I never remember this ever happening with F/A's we've signed in the past, guys like Farrior, Hartings, Wayne Gandy, Mewelde Moore, Ray Seals, and so on.
This guy in my opinion has been a total bust on and off the field. We've gotten rid of one model citizen and it wouldn't hurt my feelings if they dumped this turd as well.

if we cut him, this is what will be left as dead money owed to him $4.75 million signing bonus,. 2014: $750,000, 2015: $2 million (+ $2 million roster bonus due in March), 2016-2018: $5 million

I have seen Lebeau using Blake as a S at times and he is a guy that can cover more ground maybe after the season re-sign Blake to a cheap 2 year deal and try to move him to FS.
They can stand him right along side Cortez Allen.
This dumb crap and his asinine comments after the Browns whoopin', He needs to STFU! He hasn't been here long enough or played well to be the voice of that locker room. Grow up and play better.
Maurkice Pouncey showed him how to do Twitter.

Thank You! I couldn't' agree more, he is terrible! He wasn't aware of what was going on around him when Coffman caught that TD pass, all he had to do was turn around and jump and he might of had an interception.

Dumbass! That wasn't the intention of mentioning Ray Seals. The intention was that these players never caused problems with or without social media.
