    You could give a Caribbean beach house to some of the people on this board and they would complain about the title fee.

    "Yes, Mr. Rooney. I can wave my arms, pump my fist, pound my chest, and get very excited. And I can scout from a hotel room and fantasize about drafting successful college running backs...I got the job? WOOOOOOOO!! Let's go! Let's go!"

    Pretty sure that's how it must have gone.

    He's doing a great job this year but that fake punt call was still ridiculous no matter how you slice it.

    That being said. If he gets us to the playoffs with this scrappy bunch of 2nd and 3rd stringers on offense then he is is a top contender for COTY. If he goes deep in the playoffs then it's a lock. Should he win the SB with all the adversity over these last 3 seasons then they should build a statue down at Gate A going into Heinz Field.

    I for one, thought this team was finished at 1-4.

    Plus if it doesn't have a private beach with secure access what's the point really.

    I know he's not coty material, and that's enough for me.

    I think Labs wrote about that and kinda obsolved Tomlin of wrongdoing.

    Apparently, film showed a Cards formation with a six man box, a gunner in vice, and two returners that would be susceptible to a fake. They practiced it (the fake) during the week and knew that if it presented itself, the fake was green lit. It got called off, however, and everyone got the signal but Berry.

    Calling it off was the right thing to do in that situation. Can't fault Tomlin for the preparation or the blunder. Hey, I'm the first to jump on the guy when he deserves it. But in this case, it doesn't sound like he does.

    It just sucks because one of our secrets is now out of the bag. Other teams now know what one of our tells was on punts.

    From a game situation perspective it doesn't make any sense to even think about calling that play at that moment. It shouldn't have even been in the conversation. I honestly think he called it because he got burned on one earlier and wanted to even the score. JMHO.

    I could never be a Coach of a team. Hell, when I get nervous I turn the channel or run outside. A Coach has no choice but to suck it up and watch.

    Another Tomlin post. Can't we hold off on how wonderful he is until the season is completed and we know what we need to know? If he loses the last 3 games and we miss the playoff, especially due to dumb decisions, half this board will want him gone tomorrow including me. If we win the last 3 games and do get to the playoffs, then most of this board will sing his praises for holding things together and that also includes me. The more people start saying how great someone is, including players, the more I think its bad luck and things fall apart. Call me superstitious.

    It wasn't called. It wasn't in any conversation. It was in response to a tell that had been viewed and practiced during the week. No one made the call to fake the punt during the game. The call was to NOT fake it because it wasn't the right play situationally.
