    Truth hurts but some folks are too ignorant or pig headed to acknowledge it. But hey, ignorance is bliss.

    I mean, what didn't we know about this?

    The only ones worth a damn were the RB and WR coaches. Honorable mention to the DB coach, but we really didn't see much development from them.

    Hell I'd be reinventing the wheel on the strength and conditioning coach as well. Too many injuries related to not having

    Perhaps the Rooneys are so cheap with coordinators that the decent ones are unavailable and we scrape the bottom of who is left.

    Clark has been more and more critical of Tomlin. He’s not wrong here.

    You mean the Ryan Clark who's best years were under M. Tomlin??? You mean that guy ??? The guy that got better after He was coached by Tomlin, not on the two teams before, or the teams after he left....that guy???
    Its simply amazing what a coach that can't develop anyone could do for Ryan Clark. Amazing.
    Oh yeah add Ryan Clark to my list of players when people say Tomlin can't develop, or coach players.

    Canada was a bad coordinator hire. Who are the other bad coordinator hires?

    I know opinions will vary so let's set a standard for the question. Who are the coordinators hired by Tomlin that were not hired again as a coordinator once they left the Steelers because of how bad they actually are/were?

    They had often bad hire at the offensive line coach and other position too.Butler and Austin were also bad hire at the DC position.They were very good position coach but not as DC
