Any reason for optimism during Tomlin lame duck period.

The tomlin lame duck years are pretty predictable. We have some elite players who overcome inadequate coaching. Team will win enough to barely make playoffs and then get crushed by 20 points plus in playoff game. The big difference in last years ending was the team QUIT. Nothing can justify it and the Rooneys should have cleaned house after it.

 

Yawn

 

I am very optimistic that posts like this will continue. I looked and responded, boring day.

 

Damn man, one word?! Impressive, lmao.

 

I'll need to confer with jeh, but we may have just had our first official Tomlin thread of the 2025 season.

 

We looked

 

What the hell are lame duck years

Is this like a 4 year window

 

The Penguins won 2 Stanley Cups but felt it necessary to remove the winningest coach they’ve ever had. They did this while knowing that he would be unemployed less than 1 week. The Rooneys should have done the same. The Pirates should do more to be at least competitive once again. Pittsburgh used to be the City of Champions. It would be great to get back to that.

 

now we're the city of hamptons. they moved in dahn tahn. bobby will be in the draft in 2038. they say he's got an arm n at.

 

Bobby Bonilla? I think his Mets contract runs out in 2035 so he will be looking for his next gig. Heck, Rudolph would probably still be his back up QB.

 

The issue is that the owners are happy milking the cash cow and not really caring about winning SBs.

this generation of Roonies are too far removed from the ones that had SBs ambitions.

it would be better if some billionaire just bought the team with a chip on his shoulder to win SBs.

 

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

careful. i think he identifies as a horse. does that make it horse chit or is it still BS? it's so complicated.

 

Well until a moment ago I didn’t think it was complicated but now…..

 

lame duck-you should all be down to Mike Tomlins ---non-losing season greatness ---well sort of --even though he cant win a playoff game ---for sake win some playoff games---we are the city of sucking ---losers now. a laughing stock --We are the Browns now and you know what and now so do we. get off this losing carasol..get off it Pirates--Pens--Steelers.....

 

Gonna give him and his vets a shot at a playoff run before its all over, hence bringing on AR

thats the way i see it anyway

(they tried with Russ last year and failed) to me it just seems like a pattern
