I base mine off Tomlin being one of the most successful coaches of the salary cap era.
Well we've won 3 playoff games in 8 years. And those 3 were against Miami (who had a backup QB), KC, and Cincy (who literally handed the game to us). I realize to you that is impressive, especially with multiple Hall of Famers up and down the roster.
But to me, someone else may be able to do a tad better
if tomlin said that himself...i am wondering why a few folks on here are still wanting to pin this loss solely on the players?
Obvious reason
How is it possible to have the best owner, best front office, best gm, best HC, good/great drafts every year and good FA acquisitions every year, but only have 3 playoff wins in 14 years?
4 or 5?
The Steelers lost to lesser teams before they could face the Pats.
Pretend that new England knocked them out every year if that makes you feel better.
well, they have 2 during Brady's era... pretty sure they lost to the pats 3 times in the AFCC during Brady's era as well... simple math, bro

Do you think our QB is any good?
Or is he a guy that can only win SBs with a dominant D and now only wins playoff games against back up QBs?
I think single elimination tournaments are a bad tool to make important decisions.
And I consistently apply the same standard to the HC and the QB (though I think the QB has more impact on the game)
Coaches with a winning record in the playoffs (minimum 15 games)
Bill Belicheck
John Harbaugh
Pete Carroll
Mike Tomlin

get those facts out of here! we're trying to justify firing the guy we like to call an overpaid janitor... don't need any proof that this is one of the better teams in the league, cuz that would hurt our argument
