Tomlin....he's driving a proud organization straight in to the ground.

[In Ben We Trust]

I've defended the man for the final time. He simply is not a very good coach. Our favorite team is a mess on both sides of the ball and it's on his watch. A pathetic performance tonight for the world to see and to top it all off, when they show him on the sidelines he has the look of a man who has no damn clue on what the hell he is doing.

 

[Turbo Pig]

He's one of the worst 5-10 coaches in the league. He's a players coach and not a damn thing else. I cannot wait for his joke of a tenure to end. The further away from Cowhers players he gets. The worse he is. He can't draft. Can't develop players. Knows nothing about discipline or accountability.

He's a used ******* car salesman than only knows how to yap his stupid ******* gums. He probably was the least qualified head coach of all time when hired. Now we are paying for it.

 

[Xc944]

I wanted him hired but after his 4 th game I have stayed the course that he is a bad coach. This team has never been properly prepared under him. His theories are rediculous and he's just a bad coach.

Beautifully stated. I didn't watch tonights game because I knew the bug eyed ******* would have his soft, stupid, lazy, undisciplined team playing exactly in his image, all of the aforementioned.

 

[Hineswardkickedurpanzyass]

I honestly wonder if Tomlin has any clue how ******* worthless he is. I also wonder if the Rooneys are starting to wonder "what the **** have we done"

 

[6Rings]

This team is loaded with **** players. A few of those **** players have new contracts. Guys we may be getting ready to go on a Cowboy like post-season drought...

 

[black and gold apex]

I have to say after tonight, Tomlin gets way more credit than he deserves. After watching last week at Heinz he fist bumps one of the players after we were tied in score I thought what kind of coach do we have and after tonight when he way over coached by Hairball. We have no leadership, on the sidelines or on the field, what has happened?? We run around and got how many flags in the last two weeks, we look lost and it kills me to watch. Losing playing hard is one thing getting run out of a stadium is another.

 

[CharlesDavenport]

I approve of this thread.

 

[SteelerSask2]

I'm just calling out the last of the Tomlin defenders. Whoever you are, wherever you are. Give me a number. How many more mulligans does he get? Is this it? Another 8-8 or worse season. Is it over? Can it be done. Or is it another 1 or 2. Cause if he can get it over the line to 10-6 I'll shut my mouth for two or three seasons. but that won't happen, cause he is just too damn stupid. You can talk about his William and Mary Education till you re blue in the face. What the **** did Todd Haley do to deserve to still be OC of this staff? Snoop Dog with his weed addled mind can even see it. When he is fully involved with the play calling, you get what we had here tonight. No tempo, no logic to the calls, no success in the red zone. The idiocy of keeping this *** clown around for another season, shows me exactly the intelligence of Mike Tomlin. ********.

 

[Hineswardkickedurpanzyass]

Another 8-8 or worse season. Is it over? .

I'm rolling on the floor laughing right now. 8-8? That **** I just watched confirmed my worst fear, we would get rolled by a good college team if we had to line up next Saturday. We ******* suck. We have a stud QB who quit halfway thru this game because he knew Elvis was about to crush him 0.8 seconds after the snap. We have zero zilch nada run D and our pass D is even worse. At least we learned that our punter has a heart and wants to win, that should account for exactly zero points.

Until we learn how to score a ******* TD we are going to lose every game we play. The first half of the Browns game was pure magic, ever since we look like the 0-9 JV team that is just glad when the game is over.

 

[Turbo Pig]

He's been a mistake since day 1. He had ZERO qualifications when hired. NONE

Well I agree completely, but I thought last year was as bad as it could get coming out of the gait and they still made 8-8. Now I will give him a certain amount of kudos for that, but that almost makes this **** worse. You turned the corner and the team was 6-2 down the stretch and this is how you start the next season? Really?

 

[Franco]

We won a bunch of meaningless games against bad teams to close out the season, who cared then who cares now . We haven't won a playoff game in 4 years and counting, that is the ******* idiot's legacy.

 

[str8liner]

You know the thing that pisses me off more than anything is 99 percent of the time he shows NO emotion on the sidelines. NONE...He should have been out on the field one step from being ejected when they threw that flag for Troys hit.

I honest to godly think half the time he is not sure WTF is even going on from his actions. Does this guy ever have any advice or input on whats going on during a game? Does he talk to Lebeau or Haley?

 

[Hineswardkickedurpanzyass]

Does he talk to Lebeau or Haley?

I wonder the same thing about 50 plays every game.

I'd love to hear his halftime speech, he usually gets outcoached, but now it's so obvious, we are getting pummelled after halftime.

 

[PoloMalo43]

Let's all just dedicate this song to Tomlin and get over it. When he says Peter think Mike, go to bed it will be alright in the morning kids.

 

[steelbush]

I'll say it....he got his job because of his skin color. Bottom line. Rooney's were trying to make a point because of the ROONEY RULE. It backfired and they arent ROONEY enough to walk away from it. The guy cant coach...hes a assistant at best that BS'ed his way into a head coaching position. I have never seen a team/coach that makes no adjustments and actually gets worse after half-time. He spills the same **** outta his mouth every week just worded different...and everyone seems to buy it.

 

[Troglodyte]

My best guess is that if the Steelers finish anywhere near .500, Tomlin gets a pass from Rooney. The soonest the Steelers are looking for a new HC is January 2016. And let's hope there is a very good black HC candidate at that point because no way in hell does Rooney fire Tomlin and replace him with a white HC. The scope of candidates will be a narrow one if Tomlin.is fired.

nope not buying it. They did the minority moving forward it will be the best candidate. And hopefully it will be sooner or later For the record officially off the Tomlin bandwagon..............

 

[Ron Burgundy]

The namesakes of the Rooney Rule will never ever fire the first black HC they hired. He could be 2-14 for ten years in a row and still draw a paycheck here. Unless he decides to resign or retire, he isn't going anywhere.

 

[xjx]

Rooney would be a fool to keep tomlin around if he goes 8_8 or worse this year.

I don't believe that........out of all the candidates interviewed i believe that he gave the best interview. Much like Cowher did many years earlier.

 

[Franco]

His interview should not have made up for his incredibly wafer thin resume. I am sure he hit all his buzz words, playing physical football, running the ball, taking no prisoners and developing Ben , etc etc etc.

 

[Vader]

Difficult to say because they interviewed so few people. Whiz had already left for AZ. They already knew Grimm. The only outside person I remember is Rivera. Best I remember they took 17 days between Cowher stepping down and Tomlin being announced. So take away the day he retired and the day they announced him means they spent 15 days looking... They spend more time trying to find their first draft pick every year than the coach. IMHO they wanted a minority coach. Rooney wasn't going to hire a white coach after spending a decade lecturing other teams to give more minorities job opportunities.
