Suck It Tomlin Haters! Suck It Down And Swallow Every Drop!! "TOMILIN RATED NEAR TOP"

ok i have a question for all the Tomlin haters here.. Who's fault was it when the Steeler's finished 8-8 in 2006? (Bill Cowher's last year).

Because if you use the logic that the Tomlin hater's use here, "Tomlin wins because of Ben and he's a HOF QB", "Tomlin inherited a team that just won the Super Bowl" then Bill Cowher's team should've made the playoffs in 2006. So using all the same logic it was Cowher's fault for finishing 8-8 & missing the Playoffs right?

Could be that a team with a bunch of older players had just won a superbowl from the wild card spot was tired and beat up a bit. Suffered some injuries and lost a really good player to retirement that they have still not been able to replace. It is quite common to have a down year after a superbowl win, most teams do. While your asking your questions you might want to ask how Cowher was able to go to the playoffs and not be one and done his first six years and Mike the standard is the standard has not when he had Ben as a quarterback and not Kordell Neil O'Dummel and a cast of nobody's at quarterback.
 
Under Tomlin our game planning has been awful, drafts have missed, his time management is sub par, and he looks lost on the sidelines half the time. Explain to me what Tomlin does well as a coach?? We see the same problems every year that he is here and they are now getting worse because our once all pro defense is retired/cut/playing for a scrub team. He is not getting any better as the years go on. I feel that cowher was plain burnt out his final year, but under cowher when we had a lead going into the half he had a ridiculously good record. With Tomlin it seems every game is a nail biter and we can not count out losing to awful teams.

Seems to be a problem with loading your page. As to thinking someone is not good at their job equates to hater, I don't get that. Tomlin might be a great guy and someone who one could value as a friend, does not make him a good coach or me a hater. As to your thread and assumption that any one not glad he is our guy can suck it I think not. I believe since you have such an oral fixation you might just be an alien from another planet, A Tomlin ballchinian, so with all due respect I believe you are the one that has, is and will suck it, and when tired you will likely just hold it in your mouth.
 
What does Bill Cowher have to do with back-to-back 8-8 seasons and the Steelers last playoff loss coming against Tim Tebow? Not really sure that I draw the connection.

Im pretty sure that Cowher had LOSING seasons and a 9-7 non-playoff year all in a row. What did you have to say about that??

Nothing. It is 2014 and Bill Cowher hasn't been the head coach since 2006.

I don't have anything against either, but another missed playoff appearance and Colbert and/or Tomlin needs to go.

So you didnt say anything about Cowher back then?? I'm just wondering if you turds just hate all Steelers coaches or just this one.

Simple logic, the "turds" belong in cleavland !!!



Salute the nation
 
Cowher took his fair share of **** before he left too ... "Field Goal Bill" can't win the big ones. Home-field Championship game choker. Wouldn't know a good QB if he sat on his lap. Time management sucked. For an ex special teams coach his special teams sucked. etc. etc. etc. All were somewhat valid points at the times they were made. As are many of the takes on Tomlin's performance.

Cowher was an above average, not all-time great HC who was great at delegating responsibility. He didn't have one area of the team that you could point at and say he "MADE" better, but he had many areas that you could look at and say his coaching personnel made better. The thing that happened with Cowher is that he caught lightning in a bottle with Ben (the QB from the '04 draft he DIDN'T want), won a SB and became LEGEND.

Also, there's the nostalgia factor with Cowher. You know, your ex never looks as good as she does when she's left your *** for good and there's no going back.

Not to derail this thread.. but whats wrong Joe Flacco. He is a good QB. If we didnt have Ben Id take him in a heartbeat.

The point is that Big Ben > Flacco.

And yet Harbaugh has done MORE with Flacco than Tomlin with Ben, no?
 
I see no one bothered to respond. OK. Sorry for the logic. Tomlin sucks. Carry on.

I was in middle school during when that started, didn't care enough about criticizing coaches at that age.
 
Also, as to the convincing force of the unidentified individuals involved in the poll: One apparently stated, "They hired a coordinator he did not put his stamp on, but (Todd) Haley is a good football coach, so Tomlin rolls with it."

Sorry H8RS. WAAAAAHHHHH. GET RID OF ARIENS. HE SUCKS AND WE CAN'T WIN WITH HIM. Now you have Haley. WAAAAAHHHHH!!! GET RID OF HALEY, WE CAN'T MAKE IT TO THE PLAYOFFS.

Sour grapes mother *******...

And I bet you were not a football player either. You turds are a bunch of either non-athletes or ****** wannabe athletes that think they know everything.
 
It has been over 1000 days since a Steelers playoff win. I think a lot of people involved in picking, prepping, and playing these days are short on credit. This season I want cash in hand only.

Dude, this has absolutely nothing to do with football or the discussion. The Steelers are a patient team, but lower attendance numbers combined with the popularity of the Penguins and rising popularity of the Pirates have the Steelers in a spot. Fans don't like the direction that Goodell is taking the game, they don't find as many of the Steelers players as likable as other local teams and the lack of a winning product isn't helping them. I think they are primed for a bounce-back this year and will make the playoffs and possibly even have a nice run in them, which is what I am rooting for. If that doesn't happen, they need to shake something up and that will have to come with a new GM or HC.
 
Man I seem to always pick out the non-athletes on this board. They should not be allowed to have athletic opinions because um, they werent athletes.
 
I do though feel that this should be a bounce back season.
 
jdell=ironman?

if ur such an athlete, you must be in the ironman competitions...

Would love to hear your athletic resume!

Unfortunate that you agree with a "non athlete," though you know absolutely nothing about my background.

There was also the first six seasons of going to the playoffs, the trade to get Bettis, Gandy. The awareness of what was going on on the field, demonstrated by his cramming a print out of the personnel on the field into the zebras pocket before half time.

Carl Lewis, is that you?? my God, I didn't know you were a Steeler fan! Welcome, sir, it's a pleasure to make your e-cquaintance! Tell us, Carl (can I call you "Carl"?), how did you go about your training regimen for the Olympics in '84? You sure are a swell athlete, Mr. Lewis!
