Trading Tomlin makes sense

While trading Tomlin makes sense, fining Randy Fichtner is a no brainer. I expect neither will happen.

Tomlin called Randy " Fantastic. "
 
Trade CMT?? A candidate for CotY? Mike "non-losing season" Tomlin??

That's just crazy talk.

In two years when Ben, Pouncey ETC.. all leave there won't be a lot of winning with Tomlin's players. They'll be left with Rudolph, no OL and no real RB. Defense will have Hayward, Haden, Williams, and Barron almost 33 years old and Alualu will be going on 35.

Whoever comes in will be doing a lot of rebuilding especially on the offensive side.

Barron is cut this off-season

All great Steelers you. Funny discussion with too many things that hit the bullseye that have brought me to a crossroad in my love of the team I grew up on. TBH, I've hated this team for some years. Maybe I'm past my prime and the nfl just takes up so little space that my feelings on the matter just mean squat. I will say, my wife/kids can't believe I'm here. The nfl has been as much to blame as the ever underperforming shades. Cool.

So, the culmination of 50 years of my life lead me to comment here. Really if the Rats win the lwob it may help to kill the coty chatter about shades. Guys, I'm on the cusp of who gives a ****. Never thought I'd feel this way but if Tomlin is here next year the fat lady sings. Art deuce has no clue what grandad and dad built, and with the **** Goodel has transformed this into a WWE lack of character league, what the ***** the use.

Again, you're all great Steelers I've met since 1999. Best by far to learn all things love of Steelers. Oh and **** five wide.

Did Barron outplay Bush at the end of the season?

I don't know I am not staring at game film. I do know the offense has a **** load of problems in comparison to the defense.

Tomlin Sucks

Another December meltdown. This team no longer knows how to win important games. When the going gets tough, we suck. This is a larger issue than talent - Tomlin talking about "the standard" is an insult to the Steelers. We got ***** slapped by the B team of our division rivals in a must win game when it didn't mean **** to them.

Time to be great! my ***.
 
Same old story, just a different year... the organization is satisfied with mediocrity. 8-8 seasons are great years!
 
His routine is old and tired. I knew immediately he would challenge the spot on the fake punt. Though earlier he doesn't challenge the possible Johnson TD. He makes the same ******* mistakes over and over and never owns up to them. He still can't manage a clock and constantly takes all of his timeouts with him into half time as if he can accrue them. Even with a healthy Ben, I'm tired of his schtick.
 
Our O was ****, could not score more than 10 in the last three games. I'm not a pom pom waver for Tomlin, but he didn't have his #1 and #2 QB, #1 RB and his "#1" WR was a ghost majority of the season, not to mention his OL under-performed greatly. It's really hard to judge his performance or give him negativity this season.

Scrub QBs running bad offenses around the league were able to put up 30 points this season. The Steelers didn't even come close.

And what also pissed me off is what I heard from the sideline reporter re: Tomlin's halftime comments -- something to the effect of "On offense we have to focus on ball security" as if the conditions weren't an excuse -- but then when asked about the missed tackling, it was "they're having a hard time keeping their footing" or some ****.

Wait, what? Which is it? It's always some sort of double-talk and excuses. He got outright embarrassed today by Harbaugh with his 2nd teamers.

Everything you said speaks to my point.

Were any of those scrub QBs undrafted, 4th stringers? I'm sorry, but Duck was mediocre and became very bad the more he played. No passing game, no running game, couldn't put up points. They scared no one.

CMT gambled that a backup QB wouldn't be needed and lost. Instead of retaining a veteran QB capable of running an NFL offense, he kept 2 unqualified players and we got play that was not NFL quality. That's on him.

Better play calling for all these QBs listed. Fichtner did absolutely nothing for the backup QBs. Lazy, fat piece of **** just rolled out the same game plan each week.

Yep. I doubt the Steelers can win a playoff game next year. Which means 5 years and counting without a playoff win.
