What is up with Tomlin?

He retired

 

That is a good thing for the 32 NFL teams.

 

Well maybe 31. Could have been a better thing for us

 

I was fortunate to see Terry right from the beginning. He had his struggles for a couple years, but you could see the incredible arm strength and his athleticism. Once he found himself, it was a thing of beauty watching him play in big games. He threw the best deep ball ever. I remember all those great super bowl performances, and yet the thing I probably think about the most with Terry was watching him in his final game. He had a terrible arm injury, but the team needed him to play. They needed the win against the Jets to make the playoffs. Terry was at a point in his career where he had it all figured out. His arm was banged up, but he simply knew exactly what to do on the field and was able to complete a couple touchdown passes with a bum arm. On the second TD throw he grabbed his arm after the throw, and I felt like I had just seen him throw his last pass as a Steeler. It was such so sad knowing that. We later found out that it was official, and Terry was retiring. They beat the Jets that day, but it was the end of something for many of us that had seen his entire career and four Super Bowl victories.

I now think about how long we had to wait from the time Terry retired to the first time we saw Ben enter a football game.

I've never seen anybody play the position the way Ben did. You touched on the aspects of his game that were impossible to forget. It was something to behold.

I'm glad you got to see him play and I hope you get to see the next great Steelers quarterback very soon, as do I.

 

That's awesome!

I wish I got to see our boys in the 70s. Must have been amazing to have lived through.

I also think it would be good if the NFL was still structures so that young QBs had time to develop like they did back then.

 

I don’t think a Steeler coach who won a SB is allowed to coach for another team.

Seriously though, I think the Rooney’s spoil their coaches and they wouldn’t feel right working for another organization.

Who would want to coach somewhere else knowing they have to rent instead of buy because the organization has gone through 8 coaches during your tenure with the Steelers’s coach?

 

Like when Cam during his sit in threatened to play for Cleveland

I think even his wife called bs on that

 

Tomlin even more heartless than originally believed

FEHOKO SLO POKO LOCO

 

For the fans complaining about him about not having a press conference here's your answer .

 

Those aren’t fans complaining

Those are whiney assed children

 

The local media not happy Tomlin wouldn't do an interview with them .

 

The standard is the standard.

 

I know a site that has many of the Steeler dynasty games that can be viewed. PM if interested.

 

yeah, theres his F - U to the fans. So be it.

Bye Mike, better 8 years too late than never.

 

18-19 years coaching is a long haul. Thats alot of miles. Even for someone relatively young in age, its hard to start all over again with another organization.

 

Still whining because he didn’t hug you when he left

Ok everyone gather round team hug

 

Seems like yesterday
Nothing like growing up in the 70s
And
Steelers football
Life in general was so much simplier
We all met at grandmas on Saturday nights
When I die
Hopefully this is where I go to
House is gone, would it reappear in afterlife?

 

Youtube is amazing

 

Bye
Bye

 

You mean those same fans that were chanting Fire Tomlin at a home game .

 

the only guy that needs a hug is Tomlin

 

I heard Tomlin killed three high school girls to not only cover up a pregnancy but to appease the demonic masters he was in league with consistently take deeply flawed teams to winning seasons.

After Ben's elbow injury, Tomlin made a deal at the crossroads and rode that devil magic. Then the devil asked for his due. Paid off the families and the local cops were willing to cover it up because Tomlin was telling them to bet the over the last several years. They made a ton of money.

My cousin's co-worker's friend's sister's brother-in-law's uncle works for the state patrol. Got drunk one night and let the truth slip.

 

Yeah I heard about it that's why I bet the over for like 5 year, and won every single time. LoL

 

If he did do something outside of his marriage good on him for stepping away and spending time with his family.
