      I'm sure kicking a FG down 30-0 was really popular because they're all behind coach T.!!

        I'm sure you'd find another reason to complain if they hadn't kick it.

            I probably wouldn't have liked the 4th and 15 bubble screen play call, but going for it on 4th and 15 was the only reasonable call after you were willing on 4th and 10.

            BTW, did anyone ask him about that in his presser?

              AB? LeVeon Bell? James Harrison? Mike Munchak? James Washington and Melvin Ingram just this year?

              Do players and coaches force their way off of other teams at this rate?

                The other part of that monologue that's troubling is that DK says Tomlin will promote Morgan so he can have another guy he can control, like Klemm, but then turns around and blames Klemm for the bad OL.

                Once again, Teflon Tomlin escapes any blame whatsoever from the lackey media for underperformance.

                  as DK says Tomlin thinks all of us are stupid or Tomlin himself is when he says we produced a turnover but it was taken away from an offside by cadence.....UMMM it was a FREE PLAY, Maholmes wouldn't have just chucked it up for grabs WITHOUT the offside....DK thinks Tomlin thinks we don't get that but unfortunately after watching Tomlin so long i'm convinced Tomlin doesn't get that.

                    Do your own homework if you have these burning questions.

                    A simple question back; what exactly are the things that make you cheer as a fan of this team?

                      I haven't missed a game in 45 years, please don't go down this road of questioning my fanhood because I think Mike Tomlin is a fraud. It won't end well.

                        The “rate” is like .075 players per year under Tomlin if you use his 15 years.

                        Look at the Patriots. Gronk RETIRED to get out from the Pats. Brady left. Gilmore left this year over a contract dispute.

                        Every year we hear of countless players who want out or want a new contract. Bell left over money. AB wanted out because he felt Ben publicly bashed him on air and he wanted more money. I’ll give you JH and Blount but IMO Blount was the only one with a legit beef. JH was a shell of himself and was out of the league after a fee games with the Pats.

                        Are you really suggesting Munchak escaped after 4 or 5 years when we all know he wanted to be closer to family.

                        ..and you really believe position coaches moving for more money or another opportunity is escaping and not just the nature of the business?

                            Lol - Gronk retired to heal his broken body, the Pats moved on from Brady, not the other way around, and the Pats did the right thing moving Gilmore for a pick. Steelers should do the same with Cam.

                            I'm talking about players and coaches forcing their way off the team during the season.

                              It's not The Patriot, either. Questioning one's fandom or loyalty is a cheap way of countering criticism of the team.

                                I think you misinterpreted what I was asking. I wanted to know what it was that made you a fan of the team. Wasn't questioning your fandom. Glad to hear you are a long time supporter. Could be in for some tough times during the rebuild in the next few years. I think Tomlin's got one chance to get it right. Otherwise his contract in 2024 doesn't get renewed. And he may not have Colbert around to steer player draft selections after this season.
