Steelers-Titans game thread. #GiveUsAnEarlyXmasGiftShit

Did CBS forget Christmas is Saturday? No studio decorations, no Happy Holidays, no animated lights on the scoreboard leading in and out of commercials...
They don’t want to offend anyone..
 
Biggest play we had Fitz wanting to run to end zone to dance the willy nilly 10-0. Even half time show questioning Tomlin usual clock management lack of skills..
 
13 - 4 first down differential
Steelers 0/5 on 3rd downs
TOP 21:19 vs 8:41
 
You can't expect your team on the field to play to a high standard when your HC is such a mess. The standard is the standard.
 
Steelers with five total first downs. Two or was it three of them came on that last futile drive for the missed field goal. Titans have one drive longer than the entire offensive possession of the Steelers in the first half. That about says it all.
 
I've said it a thousand times - if they don't fire Tomlin they've accomplished nothing.
I think many on here agree with that but also know that Tomlin isn't going anywhere. As long as you get rid of Butler at least hopefully they bring someone in from outside the organization and THEY bring their D philosophy and call the plays.
 
1. If they fire Butler, that's like saying Shades' defense is no good since everyone knows he runs the D. Will not happen.
2. Anyone else they hire will want to mostly run their defense, not Tomlin's, and Shades will have none of that. So why would anyone want the job.
Tomlin's coaching tree is regularly watered with Roundup. As far as I know, not ONE Tomlin hire or assistant has ever gone on and been promoted.
And he's supposedly a H.O.F. coach?

Really?

Look at former Cowher guys who went on to at least become head coaches in the league. LeBeau, Capers, Whisenhunt, Mularkey... I suspect there are more but that's what I came up with off the top of my head.
 
All you need to see if this game isn't already tagged as a Titan win is the sack where two linemen had Watt wrapped up around the waist and no flag. That's embarrassing NFL.
 
And now Cowher at the halftime show saying poor clock management.
I wonder of we could have gotten any closer for a FG if we had 30 to 45 seconds more? Hell maybe even a minute more.
 
The thing is, we have had so many prime time or big exposure games the last few years. We used to thrive under the limelight with everyone watching. That was a long time ago. I have nothing against this coaching staff personally.
How the media doesn’t rake this coaching staff over the coals is beyond me. And players too. 3 points again. Some on here still defend Tomlin and staff. Yes if he was let go he would be hired instantly with a huge contract. Stale. Stale is the word here. Things have gotten very Stale. For a long time now.
 
I know we have Alualu and Tuitt out. but seriously how does a defense suck this bad WITH Mincak,Heyward and Watt?
It is almost impossible right?
 
I've said it a thousand times - if they don't fire Tomlin they've accomplished nothing.
I'm really in that camp now. It took me a long time but there is no way a team can play so bad in the first half week in and week out and then play well in the 2nd half. They do lack in talent in areas but this is a complete coaching fail.

It's beyond stale. It's incompetent coaching and game management. Not just a screw up here and there. Almost every game.
 
Well, this sucks. My streams are completely useless. I can see about 5-10 seconds at a time. Normally they're fine.
 
Embarrassing honestly.

I think they're being careful since we have such a large fan base. Just my opinion but it wouldn't offend me.
