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

[Stryker]

If Cower's players were so great, why did they decide to keep us out of the playoffs for the last 3 years???

I still laugh at the "Cowher's players" reasoning, since he hasn't been a factor in 8 seasons now. Still nice to see Coach Cowher get excited when he talks about the Steelers this season.

 

[ark steel]

I've always said if Tomlin gets us to the playoffs with majority of his players I will lay off. So I will lay off ... However I will have to add the biggest factors of this playoff run have been. Big Ben. Heath James Harrison .. Keisel and William gay. All cowher power guys.

Of Course bell brown and Castro have been beast along with heyward. So like I said he deserves credit and I will say I believe in the guy now. I still think we need to draft a little more meat and pot guys but I will lay off Tomlin for a couple years

Wasn't Gay drafted in 2007?

 

[Bigappleyinzer]

Wasn't Gay drafted in 2007?

Gay was drafted in 2007 during the 5th round by Colbert & Tomlin.

So arguably our best defensive player and 2/3rd's of our offense has 0 to do with Cowher. We have 2 or 3 "non-Cowher" guys who have legit shots at 1st/2nd team All Pro Honors.

So hopefully we can stop hearing about this "Cowher's players" rah rah crap.

 

[Drink IRON City]

Here and NOW is how I look at it!!!!!! Cowher then, tomlin now.





Salute the nation

 

[Hines57]

Playoffs. Damn the haters gotta talk **** on players now. The unpaid draft guru's want to find their 09 draft boards and talk about who we should have drafted instead of.....maybe instead of hating this team you should be thankful for the historic offensive numbers put up by the Killer B offense. **** talk on that all you want, we've got a tournament to win.

Well.......we can mark off the following:

Missed playoffs for x consecutive years
The whole 8-8 argument
Lost control of the team
NO respect in the locker room

Next to be expunged from the list:
Havent won a playoff game in ___ years

Ive always felt that at some point things were going to turn around for this team.....by no means is this product finished...we havent come close to peaking. But damn....when we do..........

 

[pittbull]

I liked this quoate from a yahoo sports article on Jim Hrabaugh.

"The two most coveted and difficult to attain things in football is a great quarterback and a great coach. You get one and you have a chance to contend for a title. You get two and you're the New England Patriots."

We're contending. Ben is pretty great.

He wins another repuS lwoB and he'll be here for at least another ten years. Yinz know that, right?

If he can win a SB with the total sacks of **** he drafts, seems like we should keep him around, right?

He is awesome. Behold, the power of the cool shades.
The sacks of **** are pretty much just on defense, except for Dri Archer.
(Truth is we used to bash Cowher just as much. Sometimes Shades just does some seemingly stupid **** that leaves us saying WTF? though.)

Most of oldies remember Cowher being raked over the coals, too.

Did you hear clueless Bryant Gumble say that KC's returner's name was Dri Archer? Not the most egregious error, but it made me raise and eyebrow, like, "They have a Dri Archer too? I wonder if theirs sucks as well?"

Lol,perhaps they were past their prime (Tomlins fault for starting them) Let's put this Cowers talk to rest,I mean I loved the guy,but I,like 85 % of this board were calling for his head. Just like i,& 85 % of the board have called for Mikes head.

Did you hear clueless POP refer to GREG Gumble by his brother's name?

 

[TAS]

He does that and he'd be welcome to stay that long

yeah i mentioned that in the game day thread...he also said the steelers play in the NFC north as well

 

[steelerscotty]

You mean Gregg Gumble?

 

[Wingman]

Easy mistake to make, most of us knew who he meant and most of us don't care what the name of the dumbass talking head is on the tube.

Using the words "Gumble" and "dumbass" in the same sentence is redundant.

If you're going to criticize someone for getting a name wrong, you probably shouldn't get that person's name wrong.

Yinz can poop on the Gumbels all you want, but Real Sports is a terrific show.

Agree, 100%. He was the first one in the mainstream who admitted that steroids didn't kill Lyle Alzado, and that properly administrated they aren't dangerous. He highlighted the lack of medical evidence condemning steroids, and the mass hysteria tactics used by the media to drum up support for prohibition. I was so proud of him for that, because it was risky.

 

[Wingman]

So he gives medical advice too. How could he admit what did or did not kill Lyle Alzado unless he admitted to killing him? Not sure I understand your points in relation to the discussion at hand.

 

[steel dino]

So.....if the Steelers and the Cowboys both make their respective conference championship games, does Garrett or Tomlin get Coach of the Year?

 

[antdrewjosh]

Taylor said he tried to calm down coach Mike Tomlin following the taunting call on cornerback William Gay against the Chiefs that kept the drive alive. It didn't work very well. “I told him he was out of his body,” Taylor said. “It's just a like a father trying to protect his kids. On game days, Coach T is a totally different person. He gets into the matrix as far as calling plays. It (stinks) because I am on the sidelines but just getting the opportunity to watch Coach T just make calls, understand the game, get a feel for the game, it's been nice.”

Make of it what you will. But apparently he isnt standing there showing no emotion or having any input. Who knew?
