Regarding Ben's opinion on building a team first, then inserting a QB: We've been without Ben now for 5 seasons. How many seasons is it supposed...
Tomlin's style was to role with a veteran QB, which Mason now is, and play conservative, not-to-lose football on offense. Keep games close until...
I chose Howard just based on the choices. But "Other" is probably the right/better choice. I think there are so many votes for Howard because...
Man, who's choosing Rudolph to start in 2026?! I'll be SERIOUSLY disappointed if that's the route we take, when we just CLEANED the coaching room...
I will be surprised and disappointed if they "roll with Mason" in 2026. And if they do, I'd be willing to bet we're not winning the division nor...
I think the Steelers will be patient with the new Head Coach. That's their style. Yes, they've been lucky that Cowher and Tomlin both had...
We're all suffering from the Mike Tomlin effect. A defensive-minded Head Coach who had his hands in the defense AND seemed to mandate a...
This will absolutely be true unless the team does really well (skewing the hire to be the right choice for most) or really badly (skewing the hire...
I usually get to 2 games every season. It's generally pretty difficult for me to see visiting fans. It's 99% Steelers fans every time. Contrast...
Unless Stidham pulls a Nick Foles, the whole country - minus the Boston area - will unite behind the NFC (likely the Seahags). I seriously cannot...
I know purists will always prefer an outdoor stadium in the elements. But the older I get, the less I enjoy attending games when the temps are...
I'm just not sure you can say that the Pats had significantly farther to go. Maybe? But Tomlin had a conservative plan - with veteran QBs - for...
I don't know there's really such a thing as a "cupcake" schedule. Especially THIS year, where there's no clear juggernaut teams. And the Pats*...
I mostly agree with all of this. But we're lacking at QB, LT, WR and the defense still hasn't figured out how to stop the run nor 3rd-and-long....
6: Pickett, Trubisky, Rudolph, Fields, Wilson, Rodgers. 0 played at an elite level, with Rodgers being the best of the bunch. But what's your...
It's a little different with Flores though. He's got a bit more baggage associated with him. I'm not dead against him being the next head coach...
Feels like you're trying to twist this into showing how the next coach can't live up to the Tomlin way. I don't agree. The minute we jettison...
Or maybe we won't be good. We don't have a crystal ball. Maybe we go with a rookie QB who makes mistakes? Maybe some veterans leave or retire?...
Well, we have 7 consecutive years of data points, that don't support this belief. You can't luck your way through the playoffs. You have to have...
Or maybe he'll pull a Bruce Arians :hmm:
