It should have never came to this......

Well, he's a "players coach". He lacks discipline. The players love him because they can walk all over him. There are tons of evidence to support that over the years.

Just like those elementary school teachers we all loved growing up. The teachers that allowed the kids to run the classroom rather than the other way around. I guess you could call those a.. "students teacher".

Same coach that sat Mendenhall, Ike Taylor because they weren't getting it done. Also got rid of his QB's favorite OC because the offense was underperforming.

the one that said he was gonna finally discipline AB.......and, wink wink, took care of it in the locker room

[Steel Maniac]

Oh really!!!!!????? Please enlighten me of more of these things he said last year?

[Ernie]

That's exactly what some of us have been trying to say to deaf ears. No matter the talent, you give the ball away and not take it away, you will lose more often than not. Been that way for a long, long time in the NFL.

I've also tried to explain why turnover differentials can absolutely relate to coaching...
You are right though... you give the ball away a lot more than you take it away... and you likely aren't going to make a post season run...

Just heard on the NFL network where several of the veteran players are upset about the lack of accountability and discipline with this team..

And Pouncey stated that this year's team had more talent than any team he's played on since he has been with the Steelers...and to have nothing to show for it.. in a year where the AFC was wide open... "Blew his mind"..

For those of your carrying Tomlin's water for him... perhaps you should take note of what's coming out of the locker room.

Do you hear that Oveido!!!! Now it's the veteran players speaking out!!! Saying the same thing that James Harrison told everyone a year ago!!! Are the veteran players lying too Oviedo????

Yinz do realize the robbers in stripes robbed the Browns of a TD today? How fitting. They stole the San Diego and New Orleans games from us. Yep, with all that went on this year, we still make the playoffs if not for the zebras.

Yeah, that Browns corner should have run to the end zone anyway. It would have made the point a little more impactful in the media and to the television audience.

Tomlin wasn't the deciding factor in replacing Arians with Haley. It was the Rooney's and Colbert. They wanted to extend Ben's career and Haley did that with plays designed to get the ball out of Ben's hands quicker. Everyone knows that.

I would speculate Tomlin had a vote. We will probably never know how many thumbs up or down were in the room at the time.

These veterans on the team should name names if they want accountability. Roethlisberger has been known to name names but he is derided for it.

Wonderful. The season is over by less than 24hrs and the drama is already starting. Shocker.

[Ernie]

and to add to the Drama... our one "Top tier" coach appears to be headed to Denver for an interview.

so now you want the players to nam names but wanted them to keep it in the locker room a few weeks ago?
