Tomlin/ Rooney

TRIB:
GM Kevin Colbert should have final say on personnel decisions. Tomlin needs to concentrate on coaching, period. Right now, he’s not too good at it.

A bad team beat the Steelers on Sunday, and it didn’t even play a good game. The Raiders took 13 penalties for 130 yards and still somehow won.

Most NFL teams would fire Tomlin given the circumstances. The Steelers won’t.

Because the Steelers are going to retain Tomlin, he must do better. The Steelers must force his hand on certain issues. There must be accountability.

No coach who had to answer for his decision would have chosen to play Dobbs over Roethlisberger. Unless said coach was an absolute half-wit.

Now Tomlin is claiming Ben was treated in the locker room for a rib injury with a numbing shot and it takes time for the shot to work so that is why they kept him out and left Dobbs in. They were waiting for the pain killers to get to full effectiveness

 

Sounds to me like more Tomlin BS
