If Tomlin is that bad

How come Assistant coaches aren’t quitting?
Take a guy like Munchak for example. He’s a guy who is pretty highly regarded, if Tomlin is that bad and unorganized why would a guy like that work under those conditions?
This is an honest question.

 

It's a job to them they need to live

 

Tomlin doesn't interfere with the O-line or Munchak. Likewise with the offense under Arians, Haley and Finctner. Tomlin has had his thumb on the defense for the past 2 seasons... and the results are in. Plus, I'm sure Tomlin had a hand in the drafting of J. Jones, Dupree, Gholson, Burns, Tuitt, etc.

 

Did you ever have a boss you thought was bad? Did you quit immediately because you were a good employee? I bet you didn't.

It's very simple to think of several logical reasons why you wouldn't:

1. Your boss being bad doesn't actually affect your ability to do your job
2. Your boss being bad doesn't impact your reputation since you are a good worker
3. Your boss being bad makes it more likely that you will be promoted and take his place
4. Your boss is your friend and you like him, even though he is a bad boss.
5. Like 99% of people you need to work for a living and you're not going to quit and give up your paycheck because your boss is bad

You are really stretching for ways to counter Tomlin's lousy performance. I would give you an "A" for creativity though.

 

Munch and is regarded as one of the beat offensive line coaches in the nfl he would be unemployed for about a week.

I can speak with firsthand knowledge of having an awful boss and quitting because of him. I started a new job 1/3 and left after 6 months. Why? Because my boss was farking awful. He was basically nothing more than a used car salesman. Did it affect my performance or how I did my job? Not at all. I still went in every day and did the best job I could. Life is too short to work for someone or somewhere that makes you miserable.

 

Yea I was about to say if your boss is so bad wouldn't u stick around just for the fact you might get your bosses job soon.. Hell id even prob try and speed up that process lol

 

There is a big difference between working with someone who makes your life miserable and someone who is bad at his job. No one is claiming Tomlin is making Munch's (or any coordinator's life miserable). They are claiming he isn't doing a good job as head coach. Very big distinction.

 

Bingo. Guess who would probably be a top contender for HC if Tomlin got the axe. Mr. Munchak!

If you're Mike Pence and you think Trump is doing such a bad job that he's going to get impeached would you resign?

 

If I was him since Tomlin's ineptitude at coaching isn't getting him fired might as well tell Rooney he's been stealing or something

 

They won’t leave because they know nobody would hire them lol jk

 

Since when do coaches ever quit fur any reason other than a promotion? Never happens in pro sports leagues

 

Should the players quit too....because they sure look unorganized too. Glenn you do realize with the impending straw ban. You are gonna be grasping for air soon...

 

The short answer...yes...he is that bad

 

I think Trump is doing great but I'm not here to discuss politics.

 

To be fair, a vast majority of GMs would have most likely taken Jarvis Jones who had a solid 1st grade round by a number of scouts

The guy didn't live up to expectations by a number of people.

Bud Dupree was another. It's interesting as apparently you can't teach the ability to use hands. It was a knock on him coming out of college. Still hasn't improved, but he was a first round grade.


Burns was drafted for his athleticism and measurables mostly. He had a 1st to 2nd round grade. We got him at the end of the first.

They had Stephon Tuitt as a 1st round projection. We got him in the 2nd

I'll add Terrell Edmunds. Looks to be the greatest reach in the first, but apparently other teams expressed a love for his athletic qualities. A projected 3 or 4th rounder taken in the first.

Out of all of these, the only one that I would question without hindsight is Terrell. I'm not sure if this kid can play this hybrid linebacker type of role. He still is yet to show he can cover tight ends for what he was brought in for, BUT it is too early to truly assess where he stands iMO. I have a feeling the reached pretty good on that one.

 

I honestly do not know. Not sure if Tomlin is that bad either. I mean people go on about is efficacy and incompetency but I think when you look at his overall record among other coaches he is one of the best in the league.

 

Doing great at what?

Great at being born on third base?

 

Right. If he’s as incompetent as some say you’d think he’d have trouble getting and keeping good coaches. Who wants to have their future in the hands of someone that’s as bad as some are suggesting?
I really can’t think of any one significant quitting Tomlin and he seems to not have a problem getting good coaches.

 

Great AV pic! Is that your family with Rod?

 

Yes sir.. Those are my daughters.

 

Even the great coaches have some bad seasons. Tomlin can't win every game. I'd like to see the team struggle to make the playoffs & come into the post season hungry & with some attitude this year.

 

Very nice, congrats man!

 

The offense has actually been worse than the defense so far this year if you look at the per drive statistics.
