      A cancer? Lmao...

        that's crazy talk. AB is a passionate competitor who works his butt off. Bell is just a great RB. you don't make a team better by getting rid of great players. teams that do that tend to always be 'rebuilding'. some disagree with me because it's the players that have to play - but franchise QB's, HOF WR's and (potentially) RB's are not that easy to find. Coaches on the other hand......

        I say Tomlin is a good HC. But I've been off his bandwagon for a few years now. Far easier to shake up the coaching staff than the team.

        It's getting really close to about that time.....(but I doubt the Rooney's see it that way).

          I think shaking up the staff only makes sense if we're moving on from the current window of opportunity. I don't think Ben wants to go through a rebuild in his last few years.

              Yes, a cancer. He's a selfish headache that couldn't care less about winning. By the way, how many rings does AB have again? What's he done this year? Let's see, misses training camp, insinuates Ed Bouchette is a racist, threatens to punch a reporter, gets into a shouting match with his OC, then tweets for the team to trade him. Oh, but he arrived at camp in a helicopter. How cool

              Nope, nothing to see there. Just move along. He's a great guy and a super teammate. lol

                Yeah, see my reply to Felt. Nobody doubt his talent. Bell too. The best at their positions. But this isn't fantasy football. The bull**** these guys go out of their way to create drags the entire team down. Hard to blame them though. Tomlin permits it, so they'll continue to do it.

                  how many laws has AB broken?

                  How many plays has he taken off?

                  So he tweets back at reporters who make their money nitpicking his every move.

                  Who has he assualted?

                  Lmao at getting into a shouting match with his OC. That’s not news.

                  You guys sound kinda sensitive. Like you never played a sport before.

                    So because he's never been arrested makes him a great teammate?

                    I'm pretty sure threatening to break someones jaw is illegal

                    Go back to the Miami games a few years ago when in hurry up, he was walking back to the line, over and over again

                    Tweeting back at reporters makes him an immature idiot. Ditto for Bud Dupree.

                    I'll ask again, how many rings does AB have? How many SBs has he been to?

                      When I played, if I would've thrown a tantrum like the ones AB has thrown, or yelled at a coach, best believe I'd have gotten my ar$$e yanked out of the game. My coaches wouldn't have put up with such nonsense.

                      I never played at a professional level, though.

                        It's been a staple of the overpaid Janitor's "players coach" approach. The players don't take him seriously and I don't blame them.

                        The Steelers are one wife beater away from being the Dallas Cowboys of a few years ago.

                                Last time I checked, that's a big part of his job... Coaching millionaires.

                                Considering just about everyone on the roster is a millionaire.
