    Oh...Forgot about this...Tomlin is also proficient in time travel...When asked about the timeouts he stated, I **** you not " We wanted to save a timeout in case JuJu didn't get out of bounds"...WAIT, WHAT?

    How in tf did you know at 1:45 left on the clock that...Not only would they score, Ben would come in, no time left, hook and lateral to JuJu ( which actually worked ) AND got out of bounds...

    If this DOESN'T prove that this guy talks out his Ass...I don't know what does

    Is ownership embarrassed? They are seeing the same things we are, they better be embarrassed.

    The patriots win their division if they beat us sunday so they will be coming for blood, and the saints need to win out to keep that 1 seed since they only have the 1 seed because of a head to head with the rams, and the rams have a favorable 3 games left to play eagles, cards, 49ers, so the saints need to win out to keep that 1 seed. As for rooney being embarrassed, rich people dont get embarrassed......

    Well, at the very least, you would be a step down from Browns fans who have showed up for years.

    Tomlin’s style, his “message”, his team philosophy has worn out its welcome. It’s time for a change. The man has got to go.

    Lol this is the best line he had:

    “I wasn’t sure JuJu was going to get out of bounds on the subsequent possession.”

    He knew that JuJu would take a hook and lateral 50 yards which must be why he had no problem letting the clock melt away, but damn if he knew whether he’d get out of bounds. Thank Jesus he saved that time out.

    Wtf-ever. We’re dealing with a mental midget. My 7 year old makes excuses better than him. I loathe this man

    Seems their's no urgency with the Rooney's to make any waves nor changes within the franchise. Sitting on 6 lombardi's and a pot of gold i feel they will let the franchise play out. No one in this organization is being held accountable for their actions /performance. I seriously believe getting another championship with the current body (leadership) will be hindered until some serious changes are made. The Rooney's needs to look beyond yesterday years and get on board with the current way the league is being competitively challenged.

    You ask "Is Ownership Embarrassed?" If their not, i sure the hell am.

    No I would not to be honest. Look at what people say here. It's bill team well I can say the season for McCarthy he didn't build that team and when people retired it appeared he couldn't coach. I just glanced at other teams and they all want there coach fired

    Not defending Tomlin, but my take was that he meant the offense generally, and cited JuJu because it had just happened and was fresh in his mind.

    You have to figure we’d get the ball at about the PIT 25 and the Raiders will be guarding the sidelines. We’d probably need those timeouts.

    McCarthy was the only coach who could compete with Tomlin at being the worst at both clock management and challenging official calls. It would be just more of the same IMO

    I don't know, McCarthy's interim may have just taken the title. Both 1st half challenges blown on one drive in the 1Q of yesterday's game.

    Sobering. On the bright side (?) looks like with MT we're as good as a coin flip?

    What’s embarrassing is the last place Raiders just beat the Steelers.
    The Raiders just fired their GM.

    You might want to remove motivator from the list. Ben said they need to look in the mirror and Decastro said they are sleepwalking..

    The buck stops with the top guy. It seems that things have just been off since Art II took over.

    Imagine Aaron Rodgers running this offense. I get goose bumps thinking about it.
