Get creative. Line up with 3 LOLBers and none on the right. Put two of them with their hands down and go back to the late 80s days of the 5 man...
No denying it. But inheriting a good team (leaving aside the 8-8 record for a moment) and winning with them are not identical. This was not a team...
I noticed people were being quiet about McLendon. Earlier this season I was defending his performance as quiet but underrated. I did expect a bit...
Ha, I remember that thread - was it over the summer? - where that became very apparent...
Or, it's based on a hopeful optimism that by changing just one thing in the organisation Superbowls will magically appear. In the case of Lake,...
I wouldn't read too much into it, but it is good to have Ventrone back in the fold - I had high hopes for this guy last year.
I'm not sure I follow? You can find successes in any round of the draft. I agree with 86WardsWay - scouting and coaching comes into play far more...
Like bigsteelerfaninky, I do struggle to understand it. Each to their own opinion, and all, but I think it's short-sighted and reactionary, and...
...Which is not "judging a coach by the product on the field." In fact, it's almost the opposite. I'm not going to make a claim that Tomlin is a...
I'm not massively disagreeing with you mac. But I do think that a purge - which to an extent is necessary, whether for cap or for talent reasons -...
You're not, though. You're making caveats as to what you're judging and what you aren't. Tomlin puts a superbowl-winning team on the field? That's...
No team left was an exaggeration, of course, but the team is more than the starting 11. I'm not disagreeing with your assessment of the players...
To the extent that we'd have no team left, yes... I think, like steelersrule6, Pouncey stays, and it would be silly to get rid of him unless he...
Quite. I thought this thread was going to be a defence of Ben, which would have perhaps worked a little better.
Always worth remembering the disdain for Jason Worilds that was around this board at the start of the season. And that was when he actually had...
Oof. The guys I really feel sorry for are the ones who have turned out to sit right at the top of the stadium on a freezing day, having to look...
Yes, a program expecting results would never stand for all those Superbowl appearances and winning seasons... :facepalm:
Ssh! Nobody must remember the Cleveland days. In the same way, to be fair, that nobody must remember Lebeau's record as a HC.
Gotcha. In some ways, I think Tomlin and all of the Steelers play to that "we're not scheming" front. Of course there will be the same amount of...
Hang on, I think I'm missing something here. Is all of this discussion based on what Brady said in an interview? He mentioned they had a...
