Mike Tomlin says they didn’t take deep shots because the Patriots specialize in stopping splash play

    Whatever. I know one thing for sure be it young Ben or old Ben he'd have heaved a few down the field regardless of what the play calling was like.

    Well then, we better hope the remaining 14 teams on the schedule don't always have that specialty or we're DOOMED!

    So you let the other team dictate what you do? I thought it was we do what we do. Make up my mind
    I think I'd be a bigger Tomlin fan if he didn't talk

    in my mind this indicates the foolishness of trusting Tomlin as head coach. I've never been one to call for his firing but his coaching skillls are way below what this team needs to thrive. He is completely blind on how bad his assistants are. Why Canada still has a job is beyond me. I look at Rush playing for the Cowboys. He is not going to set the world on fire but he takes shots down the field and makes them. Us? Our offensive line should have been a priority going into last year's draft. Not so much. Belichick beats us again. No news there. He owns Tomln. I'm just sick of the status quo. This coaching staff has to get fired up somehow. If not then we will continue to play like this. Just a horrible looking offense.

    So you're playing scared.
    You didn't counter draft anyone to challenge that?

    This will be his first losing season. But having a winning one and not winning a playoff game in so long I can’t even remember when or who it was is useless.

    Stupid answer by Tomlin. I like Tomlin overall but he gets frustrating to listen too at times. His answers to some of these questions after these games they lose make him look really stupid at times. Just because the Patriots have a reputation of not giving up long passing plays doesn’t mean you never try to hit on any. It’s a dumb ridiculous and inexcusable answer.

    Just a complete ass as a head coach, plain and simple. Change is long overdue but we know that won’t happen

    Sounds like Brook is taking some liberties there. The full quote doesn’t show Tomlin saying what she accuses him of. I think he was explaining that there were no deep shots to be taken because they do a good job taking that away. At least nothing that Mitch felt comfortable taking a shot at which is not surprising since that is something he doesn’t do well with.
