    Plax was the 2nd Wr taken trying to take the number 1 job. They did everything they could to get someone better than Ward, only to find out Ward was the best.

    At least if you are going to clap back, do it in either a comical way, or a way that makes sense. What do I have to do with 500??? Can't be because I like Tomlin....since even if you count in the playoffs he's not even close to 500, but again, I know math for You youngsters isn't very good anymore.....I've seen the results of test scores throughout the country.

    Please
    It's only a different situation for people that can look back on history. If it was SUCH a different situation, people wouldn't have been calling for his head for so long, and if You want to remember it correctly, most never said he couldn't win playoff games , the constant complaint was He couldn't win the big games. Even after we had Ben, the internet blew up that night we lost to NE in the AFC Championship with the constant......See we had the best team in the NFL , and still He couldn't win the big game. Some of You people have just either chosen to forget, or have let what finally happened color Your remembrance of things. I spent all that night defending Cowher.

    So? Plax was a productive WR in his 5 seasons with Steelers. Ward would be better than most of today's WRs if they let him play his brutal style of decapitating LBs and DBs.

    Could have gotten Brady , on many rounds:shrug:
    Could have moved up, and gotten P. Manning.
    Could have traded for many of Qbs.
    Could have gotten Brady instead of Tee Martin...LoL :lolol:

    We could have drafted Brady that year, and still got many of our picks, including Plax.

    30 other teams passed on Brady 5+ times in 2000 draft. Wasn't just Steelers.

    LoL hahaha, hahaha, hahaha, You are so funny.
    You both seem to have a problem with math. 10.5 wins as a season average does in no way come to 500. We don't play 21 games a season. So please if You want to be critical, or smart a$$, be a little more creative, and correct.

    So what's that mean , lots of people pass on many players, many times. Just look at how many teams passed on AB, on Bell, on James Harrison, hell on TJ Watt. Look at how many pass rusher were taken before TJ Watt.

    I doubt they care, but what Im try to prove by saying all of this is ......people do not know what they think they do. If they did Cowher would have never won a SB.....because they were so so so freaking sure He couldn't win the big game.

    Well give any coach 20 years and they might be able to stumble into something (Ben) that doesn’t mean Tomlin hasn’t become stale and they shouldn’t move on. You are in the minority of people that don’t agree most can see it clearly at this point. Well you and Dementia AR I guess.

    And don’t sell yourself short they care! You are free PR for them.

    The steelers and any other teams outside of the colts had no chance to have Peyton Manning in the 1998 draft

    Steelers did alright by drafting Alan Faneca (HOF) in 1998 draft, 1st round.

    So Your saying Cowher got lucky????
    I was in the minority of a lot of things, doesn't make me wrong. Mob mentality usually just means the stupid, easily maneuvered, and the most gullible. A big % of Germany at one time thought it was ok to do what they did, a big % of the whole world thought it was ok to own slaves.....does this make it correct???.. Just because a lot of people believe something doesn't make it right......You should have the brains to know this, and I should not have to explain it.

    LoL. So You don't agree? We couldn't have drafted Brady, or do You think Cowher, and staff couldn't have coached him up??
