Go listen to Lagarrett Blounts interview by Hines Ward

[Real Deal Steel]

In the interview, Hines ask him point blank, " What is the difference between the Patriots and the Steelers?"


And Blount straight out said that the Patriots are disciplined and steady from day to day. Their not allowed to deviate. Now, before you go and attack Blount and dismiss him, remember..when he was here he was a malcontent. Smoking weed and what not.

But with the Patriots, he's a choir boy. You don't here a peep out of him. Why? Because he has a coach who demands it!!!

We need a real "coach". Not a guy who gives massages to players when they underachieve. A real coach makes players accountable for their actions.

Ask yourself one question:

Would Brown have been filming team meetings if he were a patriot?

That's your answer.

Our problems on this team begin and end with us not having a real coach.

This thread should be interesting.

Nah. I'm not even going to comment further. No need to feed a "10 post troll"...

[Real Deal Steel]

Sir, I'm not a troll. I'm a life long Steeler fan who tells the truth weather it favors my team or not.

Just go listen to the interview.

We will see how this goes for you. I called someone a 17 post troll one time...I got two pages of personal attacks from membership. I believe it was squid. I suspect this real deal character is a recycled malcontent from years past but only time will tell.

[Real Deal Steel]

Again, I'm not a troll. And you'll see me often.

Why are you calling me names when I point out what is said in interviews?

And I'm not " attacking" anyone. What I'm siting is what is what is being said and our players actions backing up what is being said.

I can't help it that the truth doesn't favor what you want it to favor.

I'm dong this in hopes that we can point these things out and demand better from our upper management.

the rooney's love tomlin - he's not going anywhere.

there is a vast difference between tomlin and bellichick - but that can be said for most coaches and bellichick.

he's a very good coach whose style isn't draconian. the players know he's in charge - but yes, it's also true they know the hammer doesn't drop often. would i like to see more discipline and less tolerance for distractions? you bet. would i like to see underperforming players less coddled and held more accountable? you bet.

But that's not tomlins style. and since the rooney's love his style - best to make peace with it.

My understanding from people closest to the organisation is that Tomlin is a firm disciplinarian in the style of Chuck Noll. He has the players respect. That's not coming from people who analyze football or fans but from people closest to the organization. So, I don't think it's a discipline issue. Honestly, I'm not sure what Bellicheat does that's so special.

In another post you said Brown has " lost his mind"' implying it's' Tomlins fault.Reporters are saying Brown is getting weirder by the year. Ryan Clark said Brown doesn't care what anyone thinks about him,so aside from getting rid of him,what should Tomlin be doing?

I been thinking the same.

Pardon me! Antonio Brown is not the problem on this team! All he does is work hard, come to play and make plays! We wouldn't have been in the AFCCG without him! Everybody stunk in that game, and I mean EVERYBODY! Not one player showed up to play! Even if there would have never been a facebook live video we still would have gotten punked by NE - because we were not prepared for the challenge on that day. I'm sorry, but you are not going to win with a bunch of choir boys and conformist on an NFL Team. I mean, even new England has Gronk, signed guys like Randy Moss, Michael Floyd, Ocho Sinko, Corey Dillon, Rodney Harrison and would still have Aaron Hernandez on the team if he wouldn't have been so stupid!

Yay. Another mental midget from RacistYinzerFukktard Addicts.

[Jooser]

Everything is racist these days..... That's just stupid. The guy has a right to his opinion, and made a few decent points. It certainly doesn't make him a racist, but your name-calling may make you in fact a mental midget.

[Real Deal Steel]

Instead of the personal attacks, why can't we talk about the interview?

Blount is the one who said it; Not me. Why can't we focus on that?
