    I have no idea how serious this actually is, but I'm so sick of the drama surrounding this team.

    I just posted this same thing. This is rediculous and I don’t think I’m wasting my time watching Monday. I need a break from the Steelers

    Tomlin should bench him for a quarter or half but he doesn't have the balls. Harrison was right, no order and just lets them run around and do whatever they want.

    ABs antics have moved from silly and mildly amusing (re: Ronald Ocean), to becoming serious distractions for the team. I don't know where thus headed, but it don't look good.

    If he cheesed because other WRs have gotten bigger contracts or because Juju is taking attention and catches away from him, there's not much you can do to make him happy.

    It will be interesting to see if they discipline him. They pretty much have to, now.

    I will not. This team has been a SB contender years and continues to be so due to talent alone. That being said, Mike Tomlin and the personnel have completely ****ed our chances year in and year out. It's maddening. I feel like the Washington Nationals of the NFL.

    I thought our window closed last yr after the jax loss and how our offseason went. We didnt do anything to sure up our defense and then we didnt maximize our defense when we had guys like leveon and ab still on their early contracts. It's now too late.

    I'm just saying in the matter of months, two hall of fame talents have now been turned on. Tomlin ultimately really screwed this up.

    Well, no matter what happens, this is on the coaching staff. Control your players. Tomlin is a good coach, but he likely needs to go. This is happening so often.

    Local media and fans don't help. Probably the worst local sports media in the US. Still, AB needs to quit being a baby

    I think every team has local media that gets on players. Realize a majority of the issues on this team stem from social media. Maybe these idiots should try staying off it for a full season. Who cares what Madden or some trolls on Twitter/IG have to say.

    constantly talking sideways about an All Pro and former employees saying STUPID things to him. AB has kept us in a lot of games and won a lot of games how quickly the media forgets. Your own fanbase and local media turning on you is dumb and doesn't help the situation. Talk between fans is one thing but 93.7 the fan, gazette, espn etc calling him a baby and self centered is just throwing gas on the fire. That being said AB should block it out but you know what kind of dude he is why throw gas on the fire?

    I’ll wait until more info is available.

    Have to wonder how things are in that locker room though. I said at the time when he took a different position than his teammate on Bells hold out that it could be a problem.

    Maybe it has nothing to do with tha but this is odd.

    Find out more soon enough I guess.

    Well, yes. The record speaks for itself. He's a good coach, but sometimes you need more than a "good coach." A team this damn talented should be doing way more than they are.
