Some players didn't get the memo

One of the reasons I think some have called Tomlin a players coach in the past is he "treats men like men". I don't remember really seeing him chew on a player. I'm sure he has but just don't remember seeing it. With that said, there was a noticeable difference in Tomlin's demeanor with the numbskulls during this game. Some of these "men" act like children and should be treated as such. Moore did indeed shoot back. At least Tomlin was willing to get in his face a bit.

whatever happened to "Sorry coach", and then going to the bench and shutting up?

Not happening in the Burgh. I think the era of "treating men like men" has ended. If you act like a child on the field, then the you need a public tongue lashing.

It don't exist in today's NFL.

Great catch but, you don't need to spike the ball after the play this is exactly what hurts them as a team.....

[fezziwig]

I wonder if he was spiking the ball towards Tomlin with attitude of him not getting playing time ?

If he wants more playing time,I'm pretty sure that's not the way to go about it.

Another sloppy, undisciplined game...good thing they were playing the worst team in the league, or they almost certainly would not have been able to pull out a win. Mike will probably have another PC where he talks about the need to cut down on penalties, sharpen their focus, blah blah blah. Hope he actually does something with the team to address these problems, because next up is a hungry Cleveland team.

The Patriots last night racked up 12 penalties for 114 yards. So I guess a team can be sloppy and undisciplined and still win. But not even The Great One can prevent his players from losing their poise and doing stupid things. Flags will fly about once every three plays in today's NFL. Might as well get used to it.

I don't belive all our troubles with losing has come from getting the flags. It hasn't helped but, it hasn't been the source of our problems.

I'd like to see more of Moore. Wheaton and JB aren't doing much. Our whole offense seems to be centered by AB and Bell. With all of the double coverage on AB you'd think you'd see better numbers out of our other receivers.

Well, 11 different players caught passes from Ben (5 WR's, 4 RB's, 2 TE's). I think Matt Spaeth was the only active skill player on offense not to catch a pass in that game. I'd say that was a pretty good job by Ben of spreading the rock around to other players not named Antonio or Le'Veon.

..and we scored 10 freaking points vs the worst D in the NFL.

I prefer Broan and Bell and 27 points vs 11 different players getting us 10 points.

The fumble was a big one, but the offense moved the ball well there and were looking at points and they could have had points on the last drive the way they were moving the ball but it was a kneel down situation.

I know its easy to what if, but the while they left some points on the field they didnt really have much trouble against the jax defense despite ben having an off day

Glad its not as black and white as "offense needs to protect defense" as i thought the last few weeks...defense stepped up, thats encouraging. Not every game is perfect
