Right -- it is perplexing because we won most of those other games. Our record against Lamar is quite good.Which is weird because it’s my understanding that in previous games it was Lamar.

Tomlin conned this locker room. TJ, Cam, Minkah actually thought that Mike T was the guy who could lead them to the promised land.
Don’t forget the coordinators.Offense: Roethlisberger, Faneca, Ward, Miller
Defense: Harrison, Polamalu, Farriror, Hampton, Taylor, Smith
That's a hell of a nucleus to inherit. Shoot, I could go 11-6 with that.
And how close was it that we almost lost to the Cardinals in the Super Bowl?Tomlin would have to go to a team where the talent is already Teed up to win like it was when he came to the Steelers.
I think the RPO is not helping watt eitherI think Herbstreit mentioned that was an intentional coaching decision to commit to Henry no matter what… not working so far.
Please. Mike’s name shouldn’t even be mentioned alongside Andy Reid.I think two things can be true:
Mike Tomlin is one of the best head coaches in the NFL, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he won a Super Bowl somewhere else…
AND
…Mike Tomlin’s expiration date in Pittsburgh has expired. It may be time for both sides to move on. Very similar to Andy Reid’s tenure in Philly.
He’d have failed here.It looked like Harbaugh was on the way out several years ago before having Lamar Jackson fall into his lap. It’s too bad we couldn’t have drafted Jalen Hurts in 2020, who thought he was headed to Pittsburgh. Always comes down to the quarterback.
This teams problems go well beyond the Qb. They had a HOF qb and had the same results.It looked like Harbaugh was on the way out several years ago before having Lamar Jackson fall into his lap.

I get where you’re coming from, but don’t think a head coach needs to have a coaching tree to be considered a success. Belichick has a pretty big tree, but who’s his most successful protege? Bill O’Brien?Please. Mike’s name shouldn’t even be mentioned alongside Andy Reid.
What coaches have come out of Mike’s coaching tree?
Yep. Yinzer enablers = California voters.

That’s not the point though. The coaching tree means that guys were found desirable by other franchises. No one in the league finds steeler coaches desirable. 18 years and counting.I get where you’re coming from, but don’t think a head coach needs to have a coaching tree to be considered a success.

Again, I get that, but there’s some context that’s needed with that.That’s not the point though. The coaching tree means that guys were found desirable by other franchises. No one in the league finds steeler coaches desirable. 18 years and counting.

It’s the Super Bowls too!I get where you’re coming from, but don’t think a head coach needs to have a coaching tree to be considered a success. Belichick has a pretty big tree, but who’s his most successful protege? Bill O’Brien?
That timeout before half will turn out to be much bigger than I expected
It's not a game, Steelers will still lose by 20+Well, them making this a game is going to keep the pitchforks from being out in full effect for Tomlin.
Munchak?Beyond coaching tree. Name a coordinator who Tomlin hired that is still coaching
Butler ? Firchner ? Canada ?
