    its funny when you hear the narrative on some things. that INT intended to evans was way too high.
    evans (6'6) had to jump and have his arms fully stretched to get his fingers on the ball. took about a full 5 minutes for aikman to call it an bad pass. nancekept saying how evans dropped the pass

    compare that to the Ball that went right thru DJ's (5'11) hands where he reached just above his helmet.
    immediately you heard the announcers and others saying what a bad, high throw it was
    He threw 3 picks but their ball washing his performance . The defense allowed only six points off those turnovers. That’s the star of the game; the Bucs defense

            Arains came in took over a bunch of losers , made a team that only needed to upgrade the o-line and add a QB, and did it. And adding a toughness on defense by bringing in Todd Bowles too.

                Trivia question:
                What Steeler OC has the lowest scoring average of Ben's ENTIRE career?
                1. Wis
                2. Arians
                3. Haley
                4. Fichtner

                Considering the context...you know the answer.

                Our offense under Arians was a Joke.

                Sure we won a SB...carried by a defense that allowed like 13 points a game.

                  Doesn’t mean he couldn’t have went on and been a good head coach.

                    Yep- Congrats to the native York, PA guy who has just taken his Bucs to the SB. Came a long way from his York Catholic/ York High days and coaching at Temple.

                    I have a buddy who was his QB at Temple back in late 80's. He used to tell me he was a sukky coach. He's come a long ways.

                      Seems pretty easy to get to the SB with Brady.

                        Was there ever any question about that? If there was, just follow the money, do coaches or franchise quarterbacks get paid 30 million plus per year?

                          Bruce is one heck of a coach, and was our OC ( Cowher hold over ) the last time we won the super bowl.

                          He's : 76–47–1 (.617) over all and currently 4-2 in the post season.
                          Tomlin hasn't won a playoff game in seven years and counting. The earliest will be eight years. I guess that in Art Rooney's II, opinion is worth a 3 year extension.

                          Our 2024 draft looks to be grade A. Our 2023 draft is an A. The roster is talented, but Mike Tomlin is still the head coach.

                          *** Mike Tomlin is the best coach since the AFL- NFL merger that has not won a playoff game in 8 seasons or more. It's either him or Lewis. ***

                            Rooney ‘retired’ the wrong coach, obviously.
                            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?

                              yes, very Flaccoish kinda throws in that game.

                                I'm not going to make Arians more than what he is. With that roster + GOAT you are going to be good. But the reality it wasn't until the latter half of the year when some of the plays Brady wanted in their game started to be used.
