Tomlin looking for the 3-peat.

Re: Tomlin looking for the 3-peat.

why is it always rascist
and obama related?

because it's easy for people like you to understand when put in that context....

Seriously though... When you have to wait 8 years to cheer for a coach it's pathetic. When a coach is winning more than losing and we keep hearing how he is a loser it's pathetic. I have no problem with a person doubting a coach but this is pathetic....

LVG is the guy at the bar who plays 10 games a pool and wins 3 times and runs around talking about how he proved he is better because he dominated 3 games.

Re: Tomlin looking for the 3-peat.

Hopefully, we can make more "splash plays" then the Ravens otherwise we could be looking at 3 losses in a row.

For such a great coach with a Super Bowl ring, awesome staff, hall of fame players, franchise quarterback, 2 Super Bowl MVP's and a soon to be hall of fame defensive coordinator this team is a complete, outcoached mess.

So Tomlin is it possible to lose 3 in a row?

You wear your hate right on your sleeve don't ya? Why don't you just come out and say it already, we all know what you are digging at and It's pathetic. You are probably one of those we todd's screaming about the goverment taking over your Medicare. Either that or you took a bath in the vegas real estate market and are just a self hater looking for a way to make yourself feel better, either way it's just sad...

Re: Tomlin looking for the 3-peat.

As for Woodley where has he been since? At this point I would take one sack a game now.

So you would settle for a mere 16 sacks per season. Anything less and he is a bust, right?

Re: Tomlin looking for the 3-peat.

funny LVG you only show up after losses. coincedence? nah not at all. you had no faith in tomlin even though they were sb champs last season? that makes sense. i can understand being skeptical before last season but not after. there has to be another reason you dont like tomlin. wonder what it could be

Frank do you care to take a look at my posts and try to find one single post that I made after the Bengals loss. I could have jumped all over Tomlin but I refrained myself. I just couldn't stay away after we lost to the lowly Chiefs. Tomlin is once again on my last nerve.

tomlin was on your last nerve when he was hired. wow you skipped the bengals game congrats. i was skeptical of tomlin at first but it was because of his age and expierence. the same went for cowher, but after cowher's first few seasons i was assured he was a good coach. tomlin won a sb in year two, if that doesnt breed confidence in tomlin nothing will. were you skeptical of cowher when he was hired? you do realize most coaches in the nfl dont win a sb right? not everything is tomlin's fault you know. the whole entire team and coaching staff is to blame not just tomlin

For such a great coach with a Super Bowl ring, awesome staff, hall of fame players, franchise quarterback, 2 Super Bowl MVP's and a soon to be hall of fame defensive coordinator this team is a complete, outcoached mess.

Your accusation is complete, unfounded mess.

518 total yards to 218 & Time of Possession 44-22 (includes OT) in favor of the Steelers. The Steelers dominated the tempo of almost all of the game.

Unfortunately, they got 7 points of undisciplined execution of kick coverage. This is far less Tomlin's fault than the ST coach and players. Also a freak INT off of Miller's hands that resulted in 7 points for KC, Tomlin's fault?

If you want to look at HC influence on the team... lets look at Mendenhall and what he has done since Tomlin took some action towards him. He's become a great asset and he saved 4 points by pure hustle on the one INT (this from a guy whose work ethic was in question). Mendenhall and Holmes started pursuit of the return from about the same yardline, but Mendenhall started from the other side of the field. But it was Holmes who gave up on the pursuit and it was Mendenhall that stopped him from getting in the endzone and allowing the defense to hold them to only a FG on first and goal from the 4yd line.

Let's also look at the attitude of the team. Unselfish, accountable, team-first mentality.

This game was a series of fortunate events, mistakes, and mis-cues from everyone from the top to the bottom. But I don't think the team was flat, unprepared, or out coached. KC did not have their number in the least. It was simply sloppy and undisciplined at times. That is something that Tomlin needs to get on their azz about... but in the end... the players are the one that have to keep it together on the field and maintain their discipline. Sure Tomlin could take action against everyone that makes mistakes, bench them... put someone else in there (play starters on specical teams). Sometimes it's warranted. But sometimes its the easy quick fix that will be detrimental in the long run. Not what a HC should do... nor something the Steelers organization is would support. Why do you think this franchise is a steady contender year in and year out. Because we don't make brash moves on a whim.

But hey.... keep on hatin' if that's what makes you happy. I understand that everyone's opinions are shaded by their perspective on life.

This post says it all. Everyone needs a skape goat. For some it's Ben, others BA, for you it's obviously Tomlin.

I believe he was referring to your unimpressive body of work, not this single post, but nice try though.

And actually... I don't think you understand simple mathematical ratios either. Because no were in this post did anyone make reference to Tomlin's win/lose ratio. Do you know what a mathematical ratio is?

Sorry, I just had to point out how funny it is when someone's insult does nothing but expose their own ineptitude.

Re: Tomlin looking for the 3-peat.

In all honesty though
when the Steelers hired Tomlin
i can bet that noone said
wow great choice-i doubt it.
Our faith in the Rooney's is what we go on.
i think most wanted Wisenhunt.
Now i think time will tell
how great a coach he really is someone said 5 years
but one thing he did inherit a great team. ala Switzer.

I just hope and pray he can get us back to the big game.
and we bounce back after this horrendous game.
We have the makeup and i know its not easy
but you cant lose to ****ty teams.
especially when your a SB defender that didnt lose many players after the SB.

like that NFL today or whatever were they have a segment
O COME ON.....

Re: Tomlin looking for the 3-peat.

[code][/code]That big shiny number 6 doesn't count because it wasn't with Tomlins players?

Do the Tomlin haters realize for Tomlin to prove himself 5 to 6 years from now without Cowhers players endorses Tomlin should get a new contract and be here for a long time?

[aggiebones]

Re: Tomlin looking for the 3-peat.

why in the hell would you blame Tomlin?

He's the youngest member of the staff?
Blame should fall on the guys calling the plays, correct? Arians and Lebeau.
I'm not saying they should be blamed either because I know teams lose and I don't let me knee jerk like that.
But Tomlin would likely be down the list of those to get blame, even though he's asked for it.
He's learning how to be a head coach, just like Noll and Cowher had to do before him. Just like the guy in KC, Denver, etc.
None of them had control of everything. The Rooneys aren't stupid.
Even though we have won 2 Super Bowls recently, this is not the best team ever. They will lose and to bad teams occasionally.

But every single time we lose a game, someone jumps to blame Tomlin. Well, yea alot of coaches get blame. And rightly so, but OK, move on. Maybe its their fault, but even Lombardi, Noll, Shula, etc all lost and even had bad seasons.

Let's say they win a Super Bowl in the next 2 years. Then had a 4-12 season. Everyone would be ready to fire Tomlin, despite the 2 SB wins.

Ben won a Super Bowl in 2005. Was it all his doing? Maybe a little bit and that's all. But he's got another one, albeit with support again.

No coach won a game with good decisions. His team had to do the job for 60 minutes. It wasn't all preparation. They had to give effort. Steeler players were off again on Sunday and they better right the ship soon.
Tomlin or no Tomlin.
