Tomlin giving up

His demeanor is one of a man who has given up. Admitting what they are trying is not working but not willing to try anything different.

I hope he doesn’t punk out and quit. Because there is no Colbert or Ben to cover for his inadequacies anymore. He’s fully exposed for who he truly is now. 3 more years please of Tomlin.

I don't think he's given up. But I'm sure he's come to the realization that this is rebuild time and it's not a lot of fun to lose. I'm sure that what he admits in private is a lot different than what he admits in public.

I will never understand why people put so much stock in what gets said in press conferences.

They are intentionally trying to say nothing.

3 more years please of Tomlin.

in other words, you would rather wish 3 more years of losing upon the Steelers just so you can "be right" and tell people to read your stupid sig than to actually wish the best for your supposed favorite team?

that right there tells me all I need to know about what a total d!ck you really are.

I’m not sure why people say this is a rebuild year.
This team has better talent on both sides of the ball compared to last year.
Only thing that is new is the qb. This new qb is replacing a slow, old, disgruntled guy that refuses to run the plays called. He also was a locker room cancer. His play and salary was holding Tomlin back.

Read the article... apparently wheezy didn't... It didn't say that... Tomlin never took the podium to address the Pittsburgh Steelers... He took the podium to address the Pittsburgh PRESS... He said what they are trying doesn't work unless they all buy-in... and they can't skip to the more complex plays in the playbook without getting the basics in that playbook down... They won't throw out that playbook until they have a firm grasp of the basics in that playbook... If you don't eat your meat, you can't skip to dessert...

Because we have a new qb learning the ropes, a poor-to-average O line that needs new pieces and really only one WR that stands out as being competent (esp. after losing Juju and Claypool) and a coordinator that is probably the worst in the league.

The D is probably good enough if we were consistent on O but it's not without needs as well.

Maybe rebuild isn't the right word but we're not contending for anything this year and we need more than 1-2 new good players to improve and I'm sure that's not lost on Tomlin at this point.

I think the ‘new qb’ is just a other excuse for Tomlin.

I don't think it's in Tomlin's make up to give up. He will continue to help to work to develop this team.

I think the left side of the Oline needs to be addressed in the off season. I think they need to draft a foundation LT and bring in serious competition for Dotson.

When you think know nothings can't possibly post anything more uninformed and stupid than past post...we get this

What do you think of Peyton leaving when he did? Is that punking out and quitting?

Was Peyton blaming Brees for his failures?

[BURGH86STEEL]

Was Peyton blaming Brees for his failures?

Peyton knew how difficult it is to rebuild a roster without a franchise QB. Why didn't Peyton win more when he had Brees as QB? The Saints had 3 consecutive losing seasons with the Peyton/Brees tandom. Then they eventually rebounded and won again.

The comment section does a good job of calling Noah out for such a bad take
