I'm not sure if you remember, but this is exactly what the vets on the team said Tomlin did when he was a rookie coach. They said that he came in...
Yep. Bad defensive play this year was surprising to me. I didn't buy into the "historical defense" talk. But I thought the CB play would be better...
I agree that both Cowher and Tomlin had their best defenses when they were aggressive (and run by Dick LeBeau). I agree with you that Tomlin's...
What do you think about Ben's dramatic increase in performance when Tomlin was hired? Was that Tomlin developing him? Or just the result of...
Any word on Flacco's injury status? I assume he'll play, but it sounds like he didn't practice. But threw for almost 500 yards and 4 TDs last...
I would love to push him down the depth chart. I think he can be a good WR3. If he gets pushed to WR4, I think we'd have a pretty strong group....
Which of those QBs went on to be better somewhere else? I think I gave a list of QBs we had since Ben. Apparently that doesn't count because it...
As stated up thread, I'd trade Tomlin for a good shot at a franchise QB in a heartbeat. But it's pretty clear that Rooney isn't in that camp. I...
Basically all the starters we've had since Ben that we've seen play elsewhere* looked better (or at least not worse) here, right? Fields. Worse...
I'm sure there are lots of awards he won (and deserved). When people say "he was NFL coach of the year", they mean "he won the AP NFL coach of...
When you post that he won AFC coach of the year, that means there is also an NFC coach of the year. So it's "coaches of the year" from that...
What is the "NFL Coach of the Year Award"? As I said in my post upthread, never AP Coach of the Year. I'm pretty sure that the AP award is the...
I think part of this is scheme and part of this is that Austin isn't a WR2. I think he's an average to above average WR3.
Kendrick Green was a bad pick...although the real issue in that draft IMO was Freiermuth. He's a good player, but we needed a C instead of a new...
The thing I LOVE about Kahn is that he sets a value on a player and seems to stand strong on that value. Refusing to over pay. IMO this helped us...
Rooney (probably): "Also, why don't people realize that if I fired him, I'd still have to pay him $40MM over the next 2.5 years. That would be...
Voted no. Only because there wasn't a "Hell no" or "The chances of this happening are approximately 0%". Won't get fired. Rooney won't pay him...
I think this was always the idea. I think they opened his 21 day window to return from IR approximately 21 days ago. My understanding is that if...
He's already the 3rd highest paid coach in the league. And coaching in Pittsburgh means you have the best job security of any HC in the league.
Not the AP coach of the year award. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_NFL_Coach_of_the_Year Cowher is the only Steelers coach to win the award...
