    Biggest blowout, yes.
    But, do you think it's the biggest loss?

    We haven't had a loss of 31 since... 1989?

    I'll throw Tomlin under the bus for this loss, then pull him out and throw him back under it again. That was terrible!

    Losing to Tampa was worse IMO, I think they were winless at the time and beat the Steelers with Mike Glennon.

    The Tebow one is pretty bad. Tomlin can not coach a consistent football team. He just can't. Tell me how many of you people really feel like every week that you're gonna get the team that you saw from the previous week? What I mean is how many of us really just "expect" us to come out and put up 30 a week and play a solid game? I guess what I'm trying to say is how many of us are really surprised when we come out and look like total crap. I can honestly say that I'm not. I'm just not.

    The Tannehill loss in the snow was a disgrace as well.

    I don't like Tomlin at all. There are plenty of **** shows to choose from but this tops the list for failing to show up. Was he reading press clippings to the team all week?

    That season, we got 3 of the worst losses all time:
    @ OAK, in a very bad game (and a 95 yd Pryor run to open the game).
    @ BAL on thanksgiving.
    Vs Miami, in the snow one week later.

    Somehow, I managed to witness all three with my wife that season. Still bothering me...

    I have "hope" for him, cause it would be unbearable to have another 20-30 yrs of losing seasons because we all know how the Steeler front office hates to fire coaches. But I'm still not convinced on his abilities yet cause he won his SB with Cowher's team like Barry Switzer did with Jimmy Johnson's. He's got the raw talent on this team's roster, if he can just find a way to use it.

    But at the same time, Cowher gave us hell back in the day as well. Ohhh the agony of it all !!!

    What's really sad is I think that us as fans are more bothered by them than the players. It lingers with us a lot longer. I'm still ticked about the rats game we lost a few years ago when Lefty was CLEARLY and OBVIOUSLY hurt and Tomlin STILL wouldn't put Batch in the game. It's amazingly ironic that Tomlin always says the word "obviously" but can't see what is actually obvious.

    The thing about Cowher though is that GENERALLY we did at least have a somewhat competent defense. What's so infuriating is that this loss today is basically a culmination of what so many of us have been screaming about for years. Tom Brady was probably wetting himself if he tuned in today. That was a ROOKIE that played today. My goodness Brady and Gronk might score 100 against us.

    The Tebow game for sure was the worst, but the San Diego loss at home when they literally started street free agents on the Oline was a close second for me.

    but obviously we don't live in our fears and as we take ownership we will move forward and prepare for Kansas City.

    you know a lot of people get bothered by what he says. I love it. its all crap but I love the fact that he gives them nothing to use. the media sucks but I bet everyone that goes in there to hear him know what he is gonna say and hate it. that makes me love it lol

    The Rooney's aren't firing Tomlin after this loss. For sure. And not after this season, no matter the outcome. It's not their way.

    Then, someone from the front office needs to do something like this:

    Definitely one of the worst losses

    But hard for me to place much blame on the coaching staff. This was a game of missed tackles, botched assignments, dropped passes, and missed throws.... On top of a ton of injuries.

    Players lost this one.

    I wish someone would do that. On an unrelated note, I heard Brad was divorcing Angelina because she talked about Fight Club. This is unconfirmed though. Maybe Tomlin should take away their ping pong paddles again???

    It just seemed like we made zero adjustments today.
