I would also add against DET; the Ravens needed the longest FG in NFL history to beat the Lions. This is not a gimmee game.

[feltdizz]

and the Rats just lost.

and they only scored 10 points.

We have just as much of a chance as anyone else to win this division.

when we lose. it's always Tomlin's fault.

so this must be Harbaugh's fault, right?

We all keep pointing to the remaining schedule as brutal. But what does that really mean in terms of the opponents? Are they good defensively, offensively, or both?

Turns out opponent defenses in the Steelers remaining schedule ain't bad at all. Offensively it's a different story though;

Note this is real SOS based on 2021 stats to date.

[LPMAN]

2020 math is fine

the 2007 and 2012 years aren’t adding up.

2007 9-3 to 10-6

Week 1-13 is 9-3
week 14-7 made us 10-6


Week 1 Sep 9 W 34-7 at Cleveland Browns
Week 2 Sep 16 W 26-3 vs Buffalo Bills
Week 3 Sep 23 W 37-16 vs San Francisco 49ers
Week 4 Sep 30 L 21-14 at Arizona Cardinals
Week 5 Oct 7 W 21-0 vs Seattle Seahawks
Week 6 Bye Week
Week 7 Oct 21 L 31-28 at Denver Broncos
Week 8 Oct 28 W 24-13 at Cincinnati Bengals
Week 9 Nov 5 W 38-7 vs Baltimore Ravens
Week 10 Nov 11 W 31-28 vs Cleveland Browns
Week 11 Nov 18 L 19-16 at New York Jets (OT)
Week 12 Nov 26 W 3-0 vs Miami Dolphins
Week 13 Dec 2 W 24-10 vs Cincinnati Bengals


Week 14 Dec 9 L 34-13 at New England Patriots
Week 15 Dec 16 L 29-22 vs Jacksonville Jaguars
Week 16 Dec 20 W 41-24 at St. Louis Rams
Week 17 Dec 30 L 27-21 at Baltimore Ravens

The point is most team that start out around 6-3 don't then totally fall apart. Tomlin has had a very high rate of teams starting out with great records blow all 4 tires on the vehicle.

These 3 in particular i doubt any HOF coach has ever done ONCE this bad at the end with such a good record to start

2020: 11-0 to 12-5
2012: 6-3 to 8-8
2007: 9-3 to 10-6

after 11 straight wins you end 1-5
after 6-3 you end 2-6
after 9-3 you end 1-5

You almost can't do that bad with a good team if you TRY
???

Above you said “after 9-3 you end 1-5”

not sure how you get ending 1-5 since we went 1-3 to end 2007 (1-4 if you count the playoff loss)

Its the way its worded. You can’t start 9-3 and end 1-5.. the results posted show us going (2-4) the last 6 games.

its mathematically impossible and appears to be faulty math. Appears you are overlapping games or confused about the last 6 games.

[LPMAN]

Yeah i messed up there 1-4 i was counting jax playoff loss

[feltdizz]

Yeah i messed up there 1-4 i was counting jax playoff loss

all good.. I kept trying to find ways to make it work but it wasn’t adding up.

Still not good.

[Starlifter]

when we lose. it's always Tomlin's fault.

so this must be Harbaugh's fault, right?

Harbaugh is a massive passive aggressive egotistical jaggov - but he took full blame for Miami saying they weren’t prepared for that game plan and had no adjustments to put in. He put it 100% on coaching.

[NJ-STEELER]

not like tomlin does like when he blamed the fake FG disaster on execution

[feltdizz]

I doubt the fake FG called for Boz to hold the ball like 2008 Ben.

and one play is different than a whole game.

Tomlin has never blamed a whole game on execution.

He did take accountability for it, oh wait, someone else doesn't so much.

attention attention

lemming, blitz, 86, and all others that argue against people criticizing anything steelers

stop being weird.

not like tomlin does like when he blamed the fake FG disaster on execution

“Again, I take responsibility for it. I shouldn’t have called it unless we were ready to run it with detailed execution, and obviously we weren’t. And so that’s on me.”

Not sure what more he has to say to own it. Obviously execution was poor otherwise the bruhaha doesn't exist.
