Ugh, DK come on man

To be fair, before a couple months ago the bolded part is pretty meaningless for anyone born after 1969.

Tomlin's obviously worse than Noll. Just like almost every coach that's ever coached football.

And being worse than Cowher is hardly an insult either.

My guess is that as of a couple months ago, the bolded statement isn't true even for those who think Cowher is better than Tomlin (to me it's a coin flip...so it kind of depends on the day).

The likelihood that McCarthy ends his run with the Steelers being better than any of the three guys before him is pretty low IMO. And it's unlikely that whoever we get after McCarthy is a step down from McCarthy too.

I hope to be wrong. But I think it's more likely than not that we'll find out how spoiled we've been re: coaching across most of our lifetimes (at least for those of us born after 69).

 

My take is on the 3 Steelers coach in my lifetime
But
I was born in 1965
There was another coach but I was too young to know
So I just include
Noll
Cowher
Tomlin
Tomlin the only coach to have a non losing season
But
Almost a decade without a playoff win
This is unheard of as a Steeler fan
I am from the old the standard is the standard
Not the new
The standard is the standard
Which is apparently accepted in this day and age of
Lower Expectations
Adding
Yes very spoiled as a Pittsburgh fan at an early age

 

I think it's absolutely not unreasonable to put Tomlin 3rd in this list.

I think almost any NFL coach in history would be very happy to be compared to any of these three guys.

 

Trading for Metcalf and giving him a monster contract, then dumping Pickens was a huge mistake. They paid more for the lesser player and still ended up with an immature jackass.

 

Another user tried warning us
Mashburn?

 

Pickens was....is, an asshat. DK Metcalf is an overrated overpaid asshat. Both are losers and both shouldnt be on this team. I'm tired of having this ****ing discussion.

 

I hope Cam, TJ and Elandon take DK for a little ride and beat the snot out of him until he decides to quit doing this crap

 

Cam is done after this year, he is the only one who could do it, but anyone else, zero chance. Not enough caché to have that kind of authority. Steelers just need to get rid of him. It doesn’t matter at this point that they don’t have enough receivers, he’s gonna suck half the year anyway. Play ok the other quarter and maybe have some 100 yard games the rest of the way.

 

I was told TJ Watt was a great leader whose presence in the locker room was vital. He will take care of this, right?

 

These smart phones and social media are making us all imbeciles. While our so called leaders rob us blind.
