    After passing the Rams with 9 recorded sacks last night, we have 5 more than them and are on track to lead the league in sacks for the fifth year in a row. Gotta give Tomlin and Colbert credit for assembling one hell of a consistent pass rush, especially considering the average level of pass coverage the rush has to play with.

    And this has been without Tuitt and Alualu for nearly the entire season while occasionally playing absolute tomato cans at edge due to injuries.

    Not sure why you are disputing facts and calling it a homer reach. The FACT is Ben never had a losing season, find another QB that can say that!!!

    Riding the coattails of a franchise QB for all those seasons. He has been lucky to have that luxury. He was also a large part of watching the vaulted Steeler defense turn to s*** for years. Squandered years of having a franchise QB. Colbert is a fault as well.

    Lets see how he fares without the franchise QB.

    He also needs to relinquish his defensive coordinator duties and concentrate on being what he was hired for, Head Coach.

    I also don't consider 8-8 as a winning season but more of a participation trophy.

    I hope they are talking about the SB win with Tampa Bay when he was a DB coach under Gruden. According to this logic Tomlin is also a 1x NFC Champion and 1x NFC South Champ, too. :rolleyes:

    He's had success, no doubt about it. No losing seasons, a division title in 2020, two championship titles. That's a damn good record, but at the same time, the team hasn't won in the postseason since 2016 and the championships were won early in his tenure with his predecessor's players.

    Might be time for Mike Sullivan to go.

    What HC is going to win without a good QB? Andy Reid couldn't win anything until he got Mahomes, Belichick last season without Brady had a losing record :shrug:.

    Nobody on here ever said Tomlin was the best Steelers coach ever, in fact I have said many times Noll, and Cowher were better, don't act like Cowher didn't choke in the playoffs too.

    Ben is also the reason Cowher was able to win a Super Bowl, and get into the hall of fame.

    Sure. In the playoffs. And not just there, but usually in the AFCCG. That's why many fans were calling for his head prior to SB XL. So people being shocked by Tomlin not being worshiped have very short memories. Cowher was being held to an even higher standard than St. Tomlin. Playoff wins didn't even matter. We weren't getting to the SB. So when fans are angry about no playoff wins in 6 years, and very few over the last decade, keep it in perspective.

    Ben went 7-8 in 2006. A bunch of HOF type QBs had 1 losing season or less (excluding rookie season): Brady, Montana, Marino, Wilson, Peyton, Elway etc. Probably all had genius coaches.

    LoL. Both of You know that's not how Seasons records are looked at . No need 2 Argue just 2 Argue. Because Like I said You both know this. If You did this with every Qb in the NFL ever... their winning, and Losing seasons would change. So really what's the point if that's not how it's done, or ever has been done?????? You can't change the rules of what's a winning season, or has been considered a winning season for ever. Just because You want 2. It's called seasons not certain games. That's a whole different stat, and category.

    I don't understand. Roethlisberger went 7-8 in 2006. That isn't a losing season? You're saying because a backup went 1-0 that is credited to Ben?

    Can anyone name a coach that started their career with a HOF QB that already had a super bowl ring. I will wait while you look through the history of the NFL.

    I never thought of this... but it's true. Batch started vs Dolphins in opener, since Ben had an appendectomy and wasn't 100% due to motorcycle crash.
