    Another Tomlin FAIL when playing one of the very worst teams in the NFL, as predicted.

      Did you predict that Ben and Claypool would be out? Watt would exit the game? Haden would be out? DJ would fumble?

      LOL

      I don't mind legimate criticisms of Tomlin on specific things like the fake punt. But this is ridiculous.

      Was it a Tomlin WIN when we beat the Clowns, Bears, Broncos, Seahags and Bills?

        yep.. as much as I hated 3 straight passes MR had McCloud wide open and missed him.

        He makes that completion and no one is complaining about 3 straight passes.

        Personally, even with 3 straight passes one should always be to Najee.

            Moving the goal posts; the specific assertion is Tomlin's teams failing when playing the WORST teams in the NFL. The list is long and undeniable. He regularly can't beat 0-9, 1-10, 2-12 type teams, has his entire career. Do we need to rehash the games again?

              Who cares, why does it matter who we lose too. I mean if we had tied Buffalo and beat Detriot our record is still the same.

                    Gerry Dulac: Why do Steelers struggle to adjust to conditions on the ground?
                    https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/ste ... 2111190104 (https://www.post-gazette.com/sports/steelers/2021/11/19/pittsburgh-steelers-mike-tomlin-detroit-lions-dan-campbell-run-defense/stories/202111190104)
                    "While attempting to explain how the Detroit Lions ran for the fourth-most yards in his 15-year tenure with the Steelers, Mike Tomlin acknowledged at his weekly Tuesday news conference that he had come into some information after the game that might shed some light on the inept failure of the Steelers defense.

                    Was it the Lions had secretly taped their practices?

                    The Steelers were wearing shoes with no cleats?

                    The Lions had their running backs smear motor oil on their game pants?

                    No, it was something more than that.

                    “We now have information,” Tomlin began, sounding like a lead detective working on a cold-case file, “that coach [Dan] Campbell was calling plays.”

                    Wait ... what?

                    “And that,” Tomlin said, “created an unsteady environment relative to what we had planned for and anticipated.”
