    Because you can have every bit of proof that you can say, show, or hear, and yet people will still believe what they want to believe. It's denial.
    I'm tired of arguing what anyone that has sat, and watched them on the sidelines, or even watched on TV clearly shows you, and yet they still chose to believe the opposite.
    Does he help make the gameplan = yes.
    Does He call the plays during the game = out side of a few a game no.

    If they don’t turn it around, I bet Myles Garrett will KO Rodgers for the season in week 6.

    You spelled his name wrong. It is Pancaked Wilson.

    For the 87th time

    Yes he’s involved he’s the head coach

    Is he calling the defense on the downs

    FFS no

    Bill Cowher explained why it can’t be done

    This notion was dispelled repeatedly right after Butler made the comment but people believe what they want to

    On TV we never see Tomlin with a play chart. All coaches who call games have them In fact I have not seen him with a laptop on draft day or ever...

    We seldom see Tomlin coaching players on the side line either. Hmmm ...

    Exactly what does he do besides hire people for his staff only to quickly fire them?

    I pay to hear him during game time.

    And it was Moats who said that wasn't true, we saw Butler on the sideline with his play sheet talking into his headset so yeah I don't believe him.

    You're just set on believing anything negative. Tomlin must be a real genius to call a defense without a play sheet or without constantly talking into his headset :facepalm:.

    t's true that it was Butler or Austin who were the play callers on defense, but Tomlin took care of the rest on defense, so he was very involved, similar to Belichick when he was with the Patriots....The difference Belichick was a much better defensive coach!

    He makes a lot of gut calls. He must be debating things with his gut as he’s standing around.

    So what if he was involved with the defense he's a defensive minded HC, you think he isn't going to have some input. You posted some old tweet to make it seem like Tomlin was making the calls :facepalm:.

    This is correct and was cleared up long ago

    But some people like the conspiracy better and ignore the facts

    So Butler emasculated himself for no reason. Got it.

    What do you think they are discussing on those headsets? Poker night?

    By? Butler? Did he clarify what he meant? I find it hard to believe he would basically say yeah im a wet noodle so Tomlin calls the plays.
