    It is the only thing in his interview that matters. It essentially nullified his previously stated "opinion".

    It does not come from a place of knowledge at all.

    In view of the fact that Mike Tomlin has matched Cowhers record I give him the designation:

    TCFCLTC-
    The Coach Formerly Considered Less Than Cowher

      You are correct and replied better than I did.

      At the end of the day people either understand why Tomlin was resigned or they don't.

        I disagree...

        Bradshaw said that because he saw Tomlin is not an X’s and O’s type of coach. So he said he doesn’t know what Tomlin does; calling him a cheerleader coach.

        *** Listen to What Jason Whitlock said about Tomlin.

          he was re-signed because that's what the Rooney family decided to do.

          all the whining, moaning and complaining Tomlin haters do isn't going to change the fact that Tomlin will be our HC the next 4 seasons.

            you guys are hilarious.
            i wonder if you really believe some of the bull$hit you write on here

            how about rockey bleir's opinion then. is he involved with national media?
            It doesn't matter because Bradshaw or Blier are not regularly attending workouts and practices, he doesn't witness Tomlin's actual coaching. The point of the article is that when you are actually around the team and you witness what he does as a coach it is impressive and is why the guy hasn't had a losing season.

              Terry didn't like his head coach either.

              you know, Chuck "Knoll"

                I don't know what that video was supposed to show? Bradshaw never said anything about X's and O's and Wilbon wasn't even in the video. Bradshaw didn't give any analysis, he just said Cowher is great because he identifies with him and Tomlin is not great because he doesn't identify with him.

                  He said Tomlin is a cheerleader ;

                  And he said that because he identifies with X’s and O’s type of coaches like Cowher and like Noll.

                    Jason Whitlock says plenty if you watch the video.

                    And I guess what Deebo said doesn’t have any validity either.

                        I know what he said. But unlike Wolfley who gave A BASIS for his "opinion" via examples, Terry doesn't know what Tomlin does.

                        *** Listen to What Jason Whitlock said about Tomlin.
                        I don't "listen" to ANYTHING Jason Whitlock says.
                        I did "hear" what he said.

                        I will just say his take is predictable and I could call what his take would be, just based on the parties involved.

                        I will say no more than it's his shtick.

                          It is indeed valid. When asked about Bradshaw all Deebo said is everyone has a right to their opinion.

                          He went out of his way to emphasize HIS stated opinions about are Tomlin are relative to BB.

                          Belechick IS better than Tomlin. Valid opinion. Enforced greater discipline. I can buy that. But you can say that about ANY coach compared to BB as he is second to none in that regard.

                          Belichick is the GOAT.

                          No different than someone giving a comparison of Ben and Brady. Acknowledging Brady being better does not diminish Ben at all. If Ben were in his physical prime, you don't dump Ben because he is not Brady.

                            The two men were at odds personally. Noll according to his own son wasn't the type to give hugs which Bradshaw badly needed. He was there to win, and gave the tough love Bradshaw never really understood or appreciated.

                            Chuck knew Bradshaw was the best he had and Bradshaw thought the same so the two made it work as best as they could. Speaking for Noll he had his work cut out for him, but after 4 super bowl wins and a boat load of patience I'd say the two worked well. It as Noll who changed the playbook once the rules changed to favor passing, and Noll knew darn well Bradshaw's game mixed the dangers of turnovers in it.
                            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. ***

                              This is the deal with comparisons to Noll.

                              Greene, Blount, AND Terry had a problem with either the franchise, Noll, or BOTH and were there free agency...they would have walked given today's options.

                              Handling the likes of Bell and Brown would be a WHOLE LOT easier if the players had no options.

                                Would never happen today with free agency.
