    AB is all about AB, if he isn't getting his touches he's going to act out, a new HC won't make a difference.

    What's up with the Steelers WRs becoming such divas?

    Methinks we just may have a peek-a-boo event at what is really wrong with the "Steelers."

    Neither receiver are even close to being in the same stratosphere as A.B. This team immediately gets worse without him. JuJu would become our # 1 receiver. He's definitely good enough to be a # 1. But the rest of the player's are scrubs.

    Terrell Owens was talented too and he destroyed every locker room he was in. AB is immature and appears only focused on himself. Either get someone in here who can educate AB on being a good teammate or get rid of him, however you cannot give in to him. That fixes nothing. We've never had problems like this until recently. This may be partly because of the newer generation of athletes being brought up to care more about their brand than their team. It is one of the things that bugs me about the college game now. Coaches and schools are letting players sit out bowl games to protect their draft stock and future earnings. Taken at face value this seems like a nice thing to do, but I disagree. College athletes signed on to play for their school and they should honor that commitment until the last game of the season is over. But, colleges don't ask for this so when the players get to the NFL you get guys like Bell who think it is okay to abandon the team for money. I get he's not under contract however, but the attitude is the same. Now we also have AB with his crap. These younger players need to be taught sooner about being a good teammate and not to always think of themselves. Since they are not getting it in high school or college, it is up to the NFL coaches to do it and they are doing a poor job by and large as well. Tomlin certainly cannot do it as this team just keeps getting more drama by the day.

    True. AB is heads and shoulders above JuJu (as of now). The real question is IF you trade him and get, let's say, a #1 pick + a really good defensive player. Is the improvements that can be made to the defense coupled with the offense that even without AB is still pretty good be better than what you have now which is a mediocre defense and an extremely good offense.

    I would of thought the terrible performance against JAX followed by a 3 game losing streak would of been a good place to start.

    he hasn't proven me wrong in the past, but, I would have to agree with you that next year if there are more issues (locker room, losses to losing teams) than the seat becomes warmer, but I am on board for next year, I think we have potentially, maybe not great, but very good team, and than you factor in draft and off season trades, I think we should be pretty good next year, so Tomlin stays and we shall see how it plays out

    So...What you're saying is...If with have another major collapse, lockeroom issues, and miss the playoffs, the seat becomes a " little " bit hotter...

    Uhhhhhhhhh...How bout we skip the " lil " hotter part...And skip right into the " you're fired " part.....K

    your saying that because you know we are going to have like a 12 and 4 record next year but maybe not go to the SB, right, so I think a lot of those losses were just how the cookie crumbled this year, (like the PI calls against the Saints and missed field goals) with out those we wld be I dont know be what seed in the playoffs and having a chance to to the SB
