    If the Steelers had a highly ranked offense but finished 8-8 again (or, God forbid, worse) I could concede the point...but, the fact is that they won 11 games and made the playoffs with Todd Haley

    The more I go back and watch tape, more I realize Todd Haley calls one of the best games of any OC. Uses one play to set up another so well.

      Ravens fired an offensive coordinator during a year in which they won Super Bowl. Why can't Steelers?

      Welcome to the Planet Tango....
      I would say the answer to that is we had a prolific offense last year and things seem to be going well in that department.
      That move would make no sense for us at this time.

          I believe that should get consideration for "Sentences No One Has Ever Said."
          Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

          Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

          We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

          We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

            Anyone know what the fastest banishment at Planet Steelers has been for a nonspam account? I wonder if they've ever gotten anyone with less than 5 posts.....

                I'm waiting for the ESPN show featuring Crash, Mark Madden, Skip Bayless, and Stephen A. Smith where all four guys at the same time just continuously spew out their opinions as the absolute truth at a deafening volume, trying to outshout each other for an entire half hour program without stopping to breathe or listen to anyone else's perspectives.

                        There are posters that I find much more aggravating than crash. Some just bash everybody without reason.

                          "You're not a fan Crash"

                          "Stop trolling Crash"

                          "Go root for another team Crash"

                          I'm all for debate. Bring it.

                          But...

                          A) Don't question my fanhood

                          B) Don't make **** up when you debate me.

                          Quite simple actually.
                          Honestly Crash, and I'm just saying this to put it out there, there's times you come across as extremely negative and confrontational. I don't mind it, but I do see how some people do. I get annoyed when people harp on one thing for months, if not years. Hell, to be honest, I'd like to hear your opinion on SOMETHING other than Ben, Art or Haley.
                          I disagree with some of what you say, and I agree with some of what you say. But how can you get into a conversation with someone when they dominate the conversation and always steer it to what they want to talk about?

                            A three wide base offense with Brown? Bryant? And Coates? Good luck trying to stop that.

                            But, that's not the type of offense that Mr. Haley prefers. So my guess is we'll barely see that formation get any meaningful playing time together.
                            I think we might see that formation IF Bryant continues to develop and IF Coates isn't as much of a project as we think he is.
                            I'm one of the few people who like SG, I saw him a bit in the SEC and to be honest, he's going to impress some people.

                              I told EVERYONE, before Todd Haley coached ONE GAME, that Dick LeBeau would start getting the heat for his 4th quarter defense sucking ass now that a Yinzer is the new OC.

                              He did, and he's no longer here, is he?

                              Only an entitled, sperm lotto winning idiot like Art II would take a team that went to three of the previous seven Super Bowls, and wreck it, and alienate his HOF QB in the process.
                              You also told everyone that they'd never win a ring under Cowher. Told everyone that the Steelers were dumping Ben to save money.

                              You've wanted Lebeau gone for a long time. And now that he's gone, you conveniently use Haley as the only reason it happened.

                              Alienate our HOF QB? Ben was on fire last year - yeah, garbage time stats is all he had, right. We were an injured Bell away from playing the Cheaters.

                              You have a lot of Steelers knowledge but you've made it very difficult for anyone to take the conclusions you draw from it seriously.
