    Be mad at Rooney. He allowed to this to happen. He also supported the Patriots cheating and destroyed evidence.
    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?

      People act like Roger calls the shots - that's insane. He works directly (gets paid by) the owners. All his moves are created/decided by those who pay his gigantic salary. He doesn't work for anyone else - not the fans or the players or the coaches. He only cares about serving those who pay him. The owners saw (and still see) major, major lawsuits coming up for concussions. That was a "CYA" move. Since Pgh was the model of "physical play" they were targeted.

        Doesn't make it right thou. And yeah, he works for the owners. Until it's something about the Patriots then he (who supposedly works for all the owners) destroys evidence (tapes), Kraft doesn't get fined for message parlor incident. Yeah, he works for all the owners until it's the Patriots involved in some crap.

          Pat's did get hammered a few times.
          Kraft doesn't deserve any fines or suspension.
          Again, Rooney supported/ suggested/spearheaded destroying evidence.
          He chose his bank account over his coaches, players and fans.

            How do you know for a fact that Rooney supported/suggested/spearheaded destroying evidence? That's a heck of an accusation.

              yes. I will conceded that point. I wonder how baseball would’ve faired this year without the pandemic and the cheating that was exposed with the Astros and Red Sox.

              It’s still a business and most owners aren’t going to tear it all down over spygate.

              Shoildve been stiffer fins and penalties tho.

                I've heard him praise the Steelers a lot of times. And, since when is telling the truth a bad trait? Unbelievable.
