Can we finally admit that Tomlin is a joke?

    They're just canceling each other out at this point. DeCastro destroyed Pouncey. Next guy up destroys DeCastro. Tunch and Webby come back to destroy THAT guy. Where does it end!?

        I'm losing faith in this whole organization. We feed Dwyer all preseason even though we knew we would cut him. We start a UDFA who showed he isnt a starter and refused to play Felix Jones.

        We keep picking up bums on the OL. We keep drafting guys who fall...when clearly there is a reason why they fell.

        Injuries... I've never seen so many injuries.

        No huddle is slow as dirt...

        We fire our OC after saying he would stay and lie about why he is departing.

        We keep letting go of better coaches and players for scrubs.

        Rant over...

          there definitely is a lack of leadership on this team. They came out flat against GB in the super bowl and I dare anyone to say different. Whether its Tomlin or not (my belief it is) there has been no change since then. Is Big Ben a leader?? I don't know, I'm not there in the locker room. Its a collective effort and that is usually spear headed by a definite leader. The Steelers do not have this imo. The Rooneys will stick with Tomlin, not because of his effectiveness as a coach, but due to their stubbornness as him being their hire. Just like LeBeau has stubbornly stuck with Hood and Heyward because they were 1st rd. draft picks. Sometimes you just have to move on. I am not a doom and gloomer but this team looked horrible today with no visions of a brighter future.

            Tomlin's a joke. I agree.
            Help me find my post proving I am a Yinzer!

            I will tip my hat to Tomlin if he has a winning record and the team makes the play-offs in the upcoming season.

              If Tomlin doesn't panic then we are really in trouble. This whole chicken little crap is getting old... but I guess we should calm down and realize its only one game. Its not like we missed the playoffs and looked like crap this preseason. lol

                  It's like Tomlin is acting like Cowher in his lame duck season.

                    Hmm.... that sounds about right. I'm sure someone will snag Tomblin up. I like the idea of a Ken Whisenhunt or Russ Grimm type as a head coach for PITT.

                        Except he's kept this up for years.

                          Thank you. Now how do we run this sorry excuse for a coach out of town?

                            Yea seriously...

                            once players get to this level they don't need "Rah, Rah" guys. If that's the case teams like the Patriots would be looking for a new coach.

                              Everyone gave Tomlin a pass for the 0-4 preseason. What's the excuse now? Tomlin is like a 3 day old bandaid. We just need to yank it off with one quick pull and start the healing process. Maybe invite Cowher to fix what this guy has clearly screwed up. Ben doesn't like the hire then he can hit the road too. Looks like we'll have a top 5 pick so if we need a QB we can grab one.

                                on second thought...let's move our special teams coach up to Head Coach. He's a real "Screamer" in practice from what I hear. lol
