New take ... since no one wants to say why we are LOSERS please tell me why we are WINNERS.

We are fans and are having a hard time adjusting to this team style of play. Even in the Bruster days we were competitive and could not pull games out at end. This team has shown they are done first quarter or second quarter and just hang around second half. Head coach cannot make changes during game just the reality of the team. We want a team that looks the part and we are not seeing it. Everyone wanted Kenny to be the next Ben and it has not proven to be the case.
 
Social justice shirt, no real explanations on his post-game commentary. That is Tomin. Also, I am not against Social Justice. Just against football coaches not coaching football well.

Politics have no place in football, we've agreed to it on this forum, but yet Mike Tomlin chose to insert it. His job is to win football games, that's it and all anyone really cares about.

Tomlin I’m sorry is and has always been a fraud.,
He’s all about the cameras and looking cool or sending a message.
It’s funny how whacked out the mainstream media works this crap.
Belicheck who has an impressive record in NE who actually built championship teams will probably we shown the exit this off season.
Now when it comes to Tomlin whose resume pales in comparison, he’s hailed as this great coach. How dare we Steelers fans want him gone. We’re spoiled and should be grateful he’s our coach.
That’s total bs and it’s only to serve their agenda building up a minority HC. What else could it be?
What other coach would have survived all the letdown seasons from Tomlin.

I'm not sure what the **** the sweatshirt was about.

It's almost like he was making a political statement toward the people who want him fired.

We do not want you fired because you're black, Mike. We want it because you've become ****** at your job in terms of being in legitimate contention for Superbowls.

No other franchise in the league would tolerate it, winning a Superbowl 15 years ago or not.

The shirt is the new sideline gear they rolled out not a Tomlin thing. Misplaced anger on that one. Blame the league.

It is a league sideline gear they just released. Not a Tomlin thing.

It's stupid regardless.

Many people watch sports as an escape from that kind of stuff.

Not sure why the league thinks using their coaches and end zones as political billboards appeals to people. It doesn't.

Their TV ratings actually took a hit for a couple years amid the Kaepnernick, anthem-kneeling drama.

I am sure it was part of the response to their commitment to the players to address social issues. And to sell ****.

I see this a lot on social media, you're all spoiled, Tomlin's great, another team would snatch him up in an instant. When I respond with would you trade your teams first round pick for him, they immediately shut up.

Ok
I can accept that if true.
But I didn’t see anyone else wearing that shirt?
Colts head coach had a nice colts hoodie on.

Someone wore it in the Cincy game earlier, but you are correct it was a conscious decision to wear it. I only saw one other Steeler coach (?) wearing one and no one on the Colts staff. Again, keep politics out of sports, and really anything other than actual politics.
 
I've seen others wearing variations of that sweat shirt today in other games. I don't think Tomlin has an agenda or reason other than he believes in it. I have no problem with it, I do have problems with him, his coaching staff and many players.

I'm not mad, he can do whatever he chooses, just think it should be directed at winning football games rather than a virtue signal trying to change the world.
