Antonio Brown BENCHED by Tomlin

I'm no longer certain they even practice.

 

Gradkowski.

 

Moye.

 

Doesn't matter if he benches AB.. shuffle's the lines or any other pea brain idea he may drum up he still own's the season! He offered nothing this year other than the team a short rope to hang themselves..now that his back is to the wall he's wants to flex his muscles in front of the Rooney's. He just needs to go away and take that so called OC with him!!!
Let's get this team back on top with competent staffing and quick making excuses for these so called wannabes.

 

I think you're missing my point.
I'm not at all in favor of benching Ben
I just don't think as a coach you are going to get a lot of respect by having punishment that only apply to certain players.
Same could be said of AB, is he not considered the best at his position and gives us the best chance to win or how about Mendy last year?
All I'm saying is if you're going to do it make it available to all or don't do it.

 

I've seen plenty of QB's benched over the years.

 

I'm not in favor of benching Ben. Just don't think Tomlin's method of discipline is working.

 

I think you know me well enough to know I'm not a Tomlin or Ben basher.
I have no idea what is the right way to handle some of these situations, that's what the experts are for. I just personally don't like his approach when it comes to discipline. It may be the right way to do it.
Anyway I think you can give me a little lead way about something a rarely complain about. It's not like some who have made it their life's work to complain about Tomlin. Lol

 

With the way some of these games look, I often wonder just what the hell is going on in "practice".

 

Pickle Party?

 

Nah, Belicheat just cuts, trades, waives players

 

In Ben's case ... I'd make him do some extra running for his mistakes.

 

FOOTBALL! 101 the rule was always for the LBs to "chuck" the TE on your side. How do you let NEs biggest weapon run free off the line of scrimmage? And I'm still waiting for the reason why Cortez Allen wasn't used more often on Gronk.

 

Patty Cake?

 

I still don't get this. There had to be something else going on on the sidelines. I mean you got Troy, Clark, Ike out there screwing up left and right, but you sit your primary receiver down for a series over a missed route?

You know, the guy that shows up early to the training facility and stays late? Yeah, he's the problem with the team....

 

It sure as hell didn't look like Ben was pointing with his thumb to me.

On the other side of the coin Brown was likely pissed that he wasn't getting thrown to enough (he only had 5 recptions, 71 yards, and 1 TD) and that Cotchery was getting too much action.

Remember folks, this is no longer a team we are watching, individual stats, etc. is all anyone is playing for now.

 

I believe Tom is literally the ONLY Patriot that has absolute immunity. I actually told a guy at work Monday that I think Belichick would fire Kraft if he could. LOL. Bill is like Dale on the ep of King of the Hill where he has to get a real job and works in an office and they give him the job of firing people because since he's an exterminator he loves to kill things and has no sympathy. LOL. That's EXACTLY like Bill!

 

Montana got benched for Young at one point. That's pretty crazy to think about. But in today's age of guys eating chunks out of your cap you can't really set that guy on the bench when you are paying him so much money. I really don't know how you deal with a guy like that. I mean he is making literally 2 or 3 times more money than you and you are supposed to be his boss? It's just a really weird dynamic.

 

Drew Bledsoe was Benched in favor of Tom Brady.
