    It's just desperate comments. Last 4 years,

    Shanny, 3 NFCC visits, 1 SB visit, 6-3 playoff record (all with average QBs at best)

    Tomlin, 2 one-and-done appearances with a HOF QB by his side.

    Plainly obvious who has been better in recent years, but it's a hard thing for some to admit. I'm not sure why though. One can still be a fan and know their coach is not better than another.

      Goes to show you the desperate attempts by the TTTers to detract from any coach in modern day pro-football who is doing things better than Tomlin. Pretty pathetic.

      49ers fought through injuries at the most important position on the team to reach the NFC championship game (3 NFC Championship appearances in the last 4 years) and you got cornballs belittling that.

      We all know ( Parcell said, " You are what your record says you are...post season record" ) and Reid and Shanny are clearly superior right now over Tomlin the last few (5) years. It's okay.

When Hurts was injured in the games before, his back up came in and ripped Dallas a new one. Hmmm...
        Last I checked, Hurts has two thousand yard receives.

        Go look at the real QB's that could run only and were fake passers ( V.Young, M. Vick, T. Tebow, C. Kapernick, K.Stewart, L. Jackson) ....................

        What WR pair did they make thousand yard receivers?

        They didn't.

        Cause they were clowns who couldn't pass and could only hit the TE's consistently because of their lack of down field passing skills. It's common knowledge throughout the defenses in the NFL that Lamar Jackson can't pass and especially outside the hashmarks.


        Even northcoast had to admit that.

          This is also what a buddy of mine was saying too.
          If that be the case then why did the Bengals win last year?
          I just think that the Bengals O-line weakness was finally exploited by someone smart enough to exploit it. That caused a lot of penalties too for them. I saw a couple of no calls on the Bengals side as well that didn't get called too so I'm not ready to buy the narrative that the league wanted the chiefs in the game because of national popularity of Mahomes.

          Hopefully, it will be a good game against the Eagles. But the Eagles seem to be the most physical team in football..and their healthy too. Mahomes is really going to have to work some magic to win this one. But if he does, he's a (in his prime) locked in HOF.

            By the way, the major sports talk shows are running out the strawman that the only complaints were the roughing call on Mahomes and the "do over" call, which is far from the case.

                It's a crappy way for the game to end...but I don't think they can not call that roughing call. He was pretty far out of bounds. It was a really, really stupid decision by the defender.

                I think that overcoming bad calls / no calls is part of what you have to do when you're the lower seed and playing away.

                I think it's also one of the big advantages of a really engaged / loud crowd. I think there's little chance that doesn't play a role in refs decisions subconsciously.

                  this is a thread about the AFCCG and NFCCG yet you once again turn it into a Lamar Jackson one.

                  he's so far in your head you should be charging him rent.

                  no matter how many more times you hijack a thread, you were wrong about him being a total flop and bust in the NFL.

                  you just can't ever bring yourself to admit that you were wrong, huh?

                    +1, thumbs up.
                    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. ***

                          Bengals can blame refs all they want, but I saw them lose to a one legged QB who had 2 practice squad WRs running routes after 3 WRs went down to injury.

                          They need to eat this one with some whipped cream on top.

                            That's my thinking. And the Chiefs got after Burrows for the majority of the game. They attacked them at their weakest area...the O-line.

                              Jones had them for breakfast, and they couldn't capitalize once Snead was out after the first series against 3 rookies playing the entire game in the KC secondary.
