Steelers / Browns

Pat Tomlin with another wasted timeout on defense. What is it with the Pittsburgh football coaches and there absolutely putrid clock management??? I guess we know what the standard is...
The standard is to shit themselves every year in Cleveland. Even worse, they are just stupid. Tomlin is just so bad at managing situations. They should have carried chubb into the endzone on 1st down and that unbelievable moron wasted one of the 2 timeouts left on defense on a 3rd down play. Russ could have pulled it off with a minute and a half and 2 timeouts.

I couldn't believe they were still trying their darndest to tackle Chubb at the 1.
 
Steelers had more yardage, won the turnover battle 3-1, had fewer penalties, won time of possession, and Tomlin still found a way to lose to a 2-8 team. That’s impressive.

Yet Narduzzi could have called the same exact game, and often does, and you'd be on a snowmobile right now just so you could blow him a kiss at the post-game presser.

Yes -
Tomlin caused the defense to get shredded by Winston
It never should have come down to that. F’ Around and Find Out. The Browns even tried handing them the game at the end and all they had to do was pick up a 1st down. Brilliant idea to have Fields throw a long ball to Pickens. Stupidity on so many levels throughout the game.

Step one: Decline the penalty, making it 4th and 2.

Step two: Send the freaking house. It's either going to be a sack/TFL/batted pass or a touchdown.

Step three: Live with the consequences. If they do get a touchdown, you have plenty of time to come back and match it.

You gave the Browns the opportunity to control the direction of this game. Nice coaching.
3rd and 7 or 4th and 2, the real travesty was not sending the house. They had been getting great pressure on Jameis and forcing him to make mistakes. And they call off the dogs on the biggest defensive play of the game. Stupid

In fairness it’s his defense.

Did you see that blitz by Queen? Did it make you miss Dick Lebrau? This high priced defense is way too vanilla and has been for years.

Why pay Minkah all that money? What exactly does he do? They can put a mid round draft pick in there to keep the lid on things.

I don’t disagree -
But listen - it was an aggressive call .
The problem was a 12 yard punt

I mean it’s his team .
He’s the HC.

You’d have to ask the DC.

We had a 4th quarter lead and didn’t get a stop
Boils down to that z
