Tomlin/Haley fight and Ben has been playing with injured throwing wrist.

A guy from usa today was on espn radio giving information about the Steelers. Haley and Tomlin had a shoving match after the Steelers loss to Cleveland. Also, Ben has been playing with a wrist injury for the last three games after hitting a helmet had been taken cortisone shots.

 

It would be interesting to know what Tomlin and Haley were fighting about, if this is even true.

 

Tomlin should go beat up a mirror instead.

 

hard to believe the fighting. it would be all over espn and any other station. anytime something negative happens with steelers its news.

 

I'm not to sure in a blowout type of game that in the 4th qtr. we shouldn't have sat ben if this is the case. I wondered about his hand after that hit when it happened. ben is not a guy to leave the field even if he is hurting more than helping, but in the case of an azz whoopin, MT should step in and make the move in the 4th qtr. to save SOME wear and tear on him.

 

i hope hailey next time shoot him so in onE minute we solve our problem , one dead and the other in prison .
I'M JOKING ...OF COURSE
ahahahaah

 

Haley: This isn't my deal, if you don't want to run the offense I am giving you.
Tomlin: Shut up Man, we run what makes Ben happy, We rise and fall on the coattails of Ben.
Haley: Well then you obviously don't need me, I'm basically a trained monkey!
Tomlin: Is that some sort of racist remark?
Haley: Whatever man, I think I'm going to go back to Arizona and Steelers West.
Tomlin: Whatever loser make sure they ain't bugging your cell phone.
Haley: F U Omar Epps!
Tomlin: I'll own that obviously.

 

Don't necessarily disagree but there was plenty of trouble in Tomlin's locker room before Todd brought some of his own. Biggest trouble is the owners want Haley to play Steeler football, Tomlin isn't sure what he wants and Ben wants to the "man" whatever that means

 

This just gets worse everyday

 

I don't know, it seems to me like Haley, Ben and Tomlin all have gigantic egos and would be tough to get along with

 

Agree! If that's the case with infighting, a Ben trade may become reality. It'll bite the Rooneys in the ass but maybe not. There does need to be a shake up however uncomfortably soon it seems for this teams stability, but something's off and it has been and nothing states it'll turn around.

 

None of that has anything to do with how easy he is to get along with on the field. But if I had to guess, I would think all 3 of those guys would be a nightmare to deal with. Ben is for sure, there's no denying that. Haley most likely is, although I guess it's possible he's just crazy and not a pain in the ass, and Tomlin also being an egomaniac is probably a safe bet. Those 3 guys seem difficult based on what I see

Haley being forced on Tomlin makes things that much worse. Tomlin probably doesn't have the power to fire him, so I'm sure those two clash constantly. It sounds like Tomlin is heavily involved in not just the game plan, but also the playcalling.

 

Bad chemistry on this team. That's part of the problem. I've been critical of Tomlin, but I just wonder if he's been given the reins by Rooney to hire any of his own people. Maybe what needs to happen is the coordinators, both of them, even the great Dick LeBeau, get canned and Tomlin is told the team is truly his. Hire an OC and a DC that will truly implement your coaching philosophy. If you don't show definitive signs of improvement by the time your contract expires there won't be a next contract. Period. End of story!

 

You honestly think Ben is a piece of cake to deal with? With everything we've heard about him over the years, there's just no way you can think that.

 

Ben has been off for a couple games... didn't he take a shot against Carolina or Baltimore? I forget now.

I got to believe that an injury is affecting his accuracy. If it is not major there is reason to want to cover it up. you don't want to give the opp. an advantage.

 

A frick'n soap opera...

 

Don't forget misses team flight to Baltimore!
I knew the place was going down hill when these type of things happen. He and everybody else must go.
