    The line also got old quick. Foster retires. Pouncey retires. Decastro too injured to play. Al falling off a cliff. 4/5 of the line gone in 2 years. Who is to say that would not have happened anyway? We have a straight up talent/age deficit on the line, coaching is secondary in this particular case. Wade's scheme is clearly transferrable as he implemented it to great effect on 2 separate teams.

    I was one of them. That's why I don't like 2 hear it.
    Now I'm hearing from some that they always knew this. LoL

    I wouldn't say I knew this as an inarguable fact, but I believed the report. I was right to do so.

    I'm still not buying it, at least not the whole story, you rarely see Tomlin talking into his headset when the team is on defense.

    It's not like I am replying to Art Rooney II on this message board. I do not expect my ideas to be taken up by the Steelers (although I have predicted a few draft selections). I put them here because we are here to discuss.

    I suggested Wade Phillips. You said he was too old. I showed that we have had successful coordinators just as old as him. Your claim of "he is too old" fell flat on it's face. You made that apparent when you failed to provide a maximum acceptable age or alternate young DCs.

    You made a half-baked claim/argument and could not back it up when called out. Something I see all too often on the internet. The only one who needed to give up here was you.

    Talking a bunch of nonsense, Wade has the same chance of being named the Steelers DC as you and I :shrug:.

    That was not what the point of that post was. Although considering you fail to answer direct questions I have doubts about your ability to decipher the point of any post. To those who struggle with comprehension anything can look like "nonsense" so saying that means nothing to me. Give up on replying. Your posts provide no wisdom.

    Watch the game and decide if Tomlin is making all the calls on defense :shrug:, on SNR they said it was most likely in certain situations that it happened.

    Speak for yourself. I got an interview set up for tomorrow. I expect to be the next DC Puppet.
    I really don't like the idea that our DCs have been Puppets. That's why I refused 2 believe it, but 2 many statements have come out.

    If they didn't like it, they didn't have to stay and work under those conditions :shrug:.

    I don't care, it's an overblown story.

    If you don't care, why are you arguing the point?

    That doesn't contradict what I wrote. Either Butler is lying or Tomlin has been calling the defensive plays all the way back to the end of LeBeau's tenure as DC.

    Watch the video of Moats talking about it then, Butler is lying, maybe he has an axe to grind on his way out.
