    Tomlin already ruins enough things for me no need to add to my aggravation. You enjoy seeing people suffer?

    Seek help, you act like they hired some total scrub HC like Adam Gase, or Nathaniel Hackett :rolleyes:.

    He’s not even a bad HC but he is vastly overrated (all his success early on was with a stacked team he inherited and a hall of fame QB) and has clearly run his course here. How some of you can’t see this I don’t know?? Maybe 3 in 15? 3 in 20? Would you ever be onboard with replacing him? Probably not.

    Just a weird way to phrase it. Negativity? I can understand “minimizing turnovers or risk” or even “played on the conservative side with KP being new”

    negativity from who? The fans and media?

    That wasn't something Tomlin changed. That has been in issue for a couple of seasons.

    That may be the case but if it’s an issue why isn’t the HC stepping in and helping to fix it? HC is a big responsibility even if they are not personally designing everything they are choosing and overseeing the people who are.

    This is the saddest thing I’ve read on this board. Someone you’ve never met “ruins things” for you.I’m about as sarcastic as they come, but I actually feel bad for you on this one.

    Im a diehard Steelers fan from the Burgh yes MT ruins each season for me which ruins my enjoyment. You are a Steeler fan as well do you enjoy 0 playoff success no matter what excuses you want to conjure up?

    This is a Steeler message board obviously there are much more important things in life like family health work etc. but I’m not here to talk about that.

    You really need to get some perspective. Go enjoy life. It’s a game that you have exactly zero control over.

    So why did Tomlin allow Canada to be thrown under the bus, let it reverse back over him and then back in drive for one more bone-crushing go at it?

    Tomlin saw all the hate being tossed Canada's way, all he had to do was say, the offense's lack of creativity was on me, not Matt.

    This is yet another con in the Tomlin column. That shows a lack of leadership and trust.

    Now I won't know who to look at it if the offense, loaded for bear, save for a not-yet-proven QB, falls on its face again. Will you?

    I am enjoying life man just not NFL seasons lately. They can be two distinctly separate things. I love football and the Steelers it’s a part of my life.

    I agree with you about the control part 100%. Wish I could make some moves but Art isn’t listening to me apparently.

    I don’t disagree with your take but I’m not so sure the offense is as loaded as people think? We have a first round running back who has been OK certainly nothing special. DJ has seemingly regressed. A TE who struggles to stay healthy and is one head shot away from possibly retirement. An unproven second year QB (I know you acknowledged that)

    We do have George P who appears to be on the verge of becoming elite and a decent O Line if they mesh. I just wouldn’t call this group loaded is all.

    The years we had prime Ben AB and Bell we were loaded.

    Obviously you’re not. It won’t change when the Steelers win a playoff game. The next time they lose you’ll be right back bitching, moaning, and crying like you do every single day.

    I enjoy life and the NFL

    But I’m intelligent and mentally stable

    Unfortunately half the people on this board are not

    Im not crying. The other two sure because once again it’s a message board to voice your pleasure, displeasure or thoughts. At least that’s what I assumed. It’s all good Sir have a nice day.

    Steelers are your favorite team and they have had next to 0 success over the last decade but you enjoy that? And I’m unintelligent?

    It wasn’t done to preserve a streak. It was done to WIN football games and extend the season. It’s hard to argue that it didn’t work given the team’s record down the stretch. We were in legitimate playoff contention with just a couple of weeks left, and if I recall correctly were we’re not mathematically eliminated until the final Sunday. To get there from a 2-6 start was a good thing, and will provide fuel for this season.

    Yes it worked to beat bottom feeding teams but I disagree it allowed us to grow into a contender when we don’t use the middle of the field or throw a deep ball. It limits how dynamic the offense can be against actual contenders.
