I cannot say enough about Mike Tomlin tonight.

Keep making me eat crow. Tough game and you had them prepared. That TO before the 2 point conversion was genius.

 

I've been pretty tired of Tomlin for several years now, but I'll give credit where credit is due. There are still red zone issues, and they still struggle to score early for the most part, but things are looking much better.

 

And if they lose to the Browns on Thursday, it will be back to fire Tomlin.

 

Yes. we never prepare for less talented teams and usually make it a tough game.

 

Well duh. I’ll probably lead the charge.

 

It's the NFL just about any team can beat the playoff caliber teams, the Ravens lost to the Browns and Raiders.

 

Exactly

 

There is still an issue on converting short yardage 3rd and 4th down. Najee must have one of the worst conversion rates of regular backs.

 

Couldn’t believe they ran a QB sneak with Wilson on 3rd and 1 instead of putting Heyward in at FB and pounding Warren up the gut behind him. Then they run that play on 4th and one. Both plays were so obvious and defense didn’t get fooled a bit. Here’s another thought. Run a bootleg with Fields.

 

I thought Popcorn managed the Duck/Rudolph year of 2019 very well without Roethlisberger. This year is comparable, but with much better talent at QB. I'm still irked at the "worse than 80's playoff win drought" we as Steelers fans have suffered through. Noll and Cowher never went this long without a playoff win.

 

Najee did seal the game by getting the first down after Fields slid short of the first down.

 

Short week and divisional road game combination is a tough ask after a divisional slobber knocker that lasted the full 60. I have a good feeling about this year's team and if they are competitive in this situation and would happen to lose a close one I wouldn't point fingers. Also, go Steelers!!

 

correct

ALL COACHES are 'removed' if they don't win a playoff game in 7 straight seasons.

the new standard is to look pretty during the regular season. January does not seem to matter to many any more. at least not many of the fans here on this board.

 

On sports radio they said MT was something like 2-8 in thursday's, hopefully he breaks the jinx, lol.

 

Exactly which fans on this board does winning playoffs games not matter to?

 

That's not how people that don't like(not saying him) want to remember it.

 

What a garbage game last night. When I finally think that MT has the team dialed in he shows me once again that it doesn’t take much to out coach him. Playoffs? Playoffs?!? I just hope we win one more game!

 

don't ever put too much faith in mike tomlin

i thought everyone has learned by now

 

Hahaha haha!!! This has aged like milk.

 

Don’t feel bad he got me fooled yet again lol

 

He got me. I was sure it was different this year.

Not giving up. He can redeem himself. I'm convinced we beat Browns in the Burgh. Going to Bengal land gonna be tough but more prep time and rest time for players.

2-1 next 3 we're alright.

 

Bungle CB Cam Taylor Britt guaranteed a Bengirls victory today. The Steelers would be smart to make that bulletin board material leading up to the game. Tomlin will probably squash that idea though.

 

....you had them prepared.
I had to turn my rating to Hilarious after the Cleveland game.

 

well probably gonna lose to Bengals --sort of happy no 5th year option for Harris--Hope the weather is a little nicer for Russ... Hope the O-LINE blocks
