We need a new Head Coach.......FIRE TOMLIN NOW!!!

for crissake somebody kill this thread.

Well with all that pushing and shoving lets see how Tomlin keeps this team motivated and ready to play Sunday against a bad Jet team and the next week against Titans. These two games could be a big factor in making the playoffs and so far Tomlin has not shown he can have a team ready against teams we should win.

These next two weeks will be a test. Passing the test is not just winning. This will get lots of guys stirred up but how we win. Did the team squeak one out or did they turn in a sharp performance looking like they were executing a game plan and winning because of it. If we end up winning because the other team throws the damn game away and worked harder at loosing than we did we will be back to the same old ****.

Does Tomlin make good use of time outs, challenges, have the proper personnel on the field in time to get the damn play off. Does he go all game with out the wtf look on his face does special teams respond to his call for better performance, does the team come out with decent adjustments to the injuries they just suffered. All of those things will be important in how we on the message board look at MT.

If he is going to get credit for some positives then he sure as hell will get credit for the negatives. I am hoping he finally shows that he has become the coach we wanted when he was hired instead of coach cool shades.

This is the same nonsense we heard last week. The Baltimore game is the real test, blah, blah, blah...

A win is a win. Go look at the Jets results, game by game. They are not getting blown out every week, most of their games have been fairly tight. They lost to the Patriots by 2 (at New England) in Week 7. Now they have Percy Harvin. Their front seven is quite talented. Their running game is ranked quite high (~ 3rd in the NFL). I think it's complete bullshit to take the stance that anything other than an easy, blowout win by the Steelers is a poor reflection on Tomlin.

This is just silly ****. The 2005 Super Bowl was a mess of a game, but we still won it. I don't hear anyone on this board saying we should give the Ring back because we won ugly.

I don't give a **** how we win, as long as we win. Brady has looked real pretty in the playoffs the last few years. And he's been bounced out every time. IDGAF about "how we win". I care that we win.

That is not what I said. I said did they play well, and minimize coaching mistakes they are listed in your quote.

 

[topseed]

And coaches never list players falsely on injury reports either? So, who exactly was your source that let's you know for SURE that he was good to go before they got him on the field? Did you do some research not available to everyone else that guaranteed you he was completely healthy regardless of listing? You can call me whatever you want, you're nobody in the grand scheme of things and neither am I. What's overrated are the chest thumping, supposed inside info know it all whiners that are turning this board in to a big tampon factory. Rock on with your bad self.

Sure, buddy. Tomlin was right at the heart of some huge behind-the-scenes conspiracy to falsely list a guy who had never suited up in an NFL game at that point as probable instead of questionable.

What the hell are you babbling about?

Once again, I'm not "thumping" anything. YOU agreed that Bryant missed four weeks because of injury. YOU stated that it was a FACT. YOU were ******* WRONG. Just admit it already.

IT'S ALL BUT OFFICIAL:

THE STEELERS ARE IN 1ST PLACE.

So yeah. Fire that ************. RIGHT NOW.

Now would be the time to see if we can stay in first place. It might be time for us to win the rest of them, that should give us the division and a first round bye. If we manage to do that we might be the top seed. The cheatriots are 7 and 2 and have some tough games ahead, with a bit of luck they get beat down on a couple. We have some games we should win and some that are likely to be tough to win. The team has shown it can win some of those but I think we will need to win them all.

This week is huge. We will find out if this new Steeler team is just on a temporary high from the injection of a couple of Cowher-era stalwarts, or have really turned the corner. We'll see if we can deal with success, and dominate this shitbag of a team, or revert to the team that shitbag teams get healthy against. This is a classic Tomlin trap game. We dominate these guys, and I will shut up about Tomlin.

Exactly which "Cowher era stalwarts" injected the 12 passing touchdowns in 2 games?

And BTW Keisel played in all 3 losses this season, so...

...yeah.

That's sounding like some anti-Tomlin revisionist bullshit right there.

 

[Wingman]

Was Ben a Cowher era stalwart or was that just someone that looked like him, or are we talking more revisionist bullshit right above?

Nothing revisionist about it. Keisel made a difference, and if you are saying that this defense didn't get a different energy with Harrison, then we are just not tracking. Like I said, lets see how we do this week. It's either back to Tomlin-land, or we are on to something.

Yes, Ben was a Cowher-era stalwart. Takes more than one, apparently.

Charles I was replying to a post under yours is the guy on your ignore list? He posed the question "Exactly which "Cowher era stalwarts" injected the 12 passing touchdowns in 2 games?" Which I thought were thrown by a guy named Ben, who Cowher picked and went to a super bowl and won with possibly making him a Cowher stalwarts as well as the two you pointed out.

A player's listing on the injury report is one thing, and yes that is often tampered with by coaches. But whether a player practices in full, is limited, or misses practice - that's all confirmed by the media that covers practice. A team can't really sneak anything by the media watching and reporting on practice. The reporters aren't likely to report "Bryant practiced in full" if he didn't.

 

[Tibs]

Tomlin is kicking ***!!!! Steelers back where they belong, first place in the AFC North. Great job coach Tomlin, keep up the great work!

 

[Steelr4evr]

Yeah another great win against a 1-8 team, hell tampa still has 1 win..US. It's all bs.

 

[Idioteque]

Yes, but losses don't reflect on the coaches. Just the wins.

No.......................

 

[insaniti]

Plenty of blame to go around for this one, Brown, Ben, Haley, Tomlin, Blount...another horrible non reversal call for the refs after the HEAD OF OFFICIALS again says he would have reversed the call LIVE on TV. No, that's not the reason we lost, but seriously? We can't put ourselves in 17 pt holes and expect to be able to dig our way out. This D can only survive with a lead, and survive is the only way to really describe the defensive play.

 

[FAB802]

Yes, but losses don't reflect on the coaches. Just the wins.

Nobody said that, don't go getting confused again.

Then read what Supersteeler, Andrewjosh, and a handful of others post

Undeniably a staple of the Tomlin era. It sucks, but it's true
