This. Just like Cowher, his best trait is motivating players. Which I think is a critical skill for a HC to have in the NFL. But he's much...
I think there are parts of his career where this is true. Particularly from 2010 to 2018...although we did go to the AFCC in 2016. But I think...
Not sure if you're following the conversation here Joel. One of the cool things about this site (vs. say Planet Steelers) is that if you hit the...
But the system was holding them back! Just like Kenny!!
I think this is mostly because basically all the good QBs are in the AFC. Look at: Mahomes, Allen, Lamar, Burrow, and Stroud. Basically none of...
No. I don't even necessarily believe that he was the 2nd best HC back then. Just that there wasn't really a great argument for others in a similar...
I think there's a lot to be disappointed about post-2010. But I think Tomlin was pretty clearly in the 2nd tier of HCs from at least 2007 to 2010....
This is kind of a wild take IMO. You know that was his first year coaching, right? There's lots to complain about re: Tomlin. Particularly...
It's the 2007 Jags loss (in 2008) with the 2 failed conversions. That's Tomlin's first year coaching since he was hired in Jan 2007. The year I...
It's not exactly related, but remember there was one year where we led the league going for 2? It's like we had an analytics guy for one season....
I think so. I don't think we'll be world beating, but do think we'll look "competent / decent". We suck (below average) on short weeks (last...
I think that's true. Although I don't think we'll trade for a WR of consequence before the deadline. I also don't think we should. Especially for...
At least he didn't get hurt?
Both of these guys show us that the system was supporting them. Not holding them back.
Maybe. Although if term, value, and team cohesion are better then maybe it's a push. We had Pickens for one more year. I don't think we would...
Week 8 Predictions (Steelers vs. Packers) 1. Will the Steelers win? Yes or No 2. Will the Steelers cover the +3 pts. spread? Yes or No 3. The...
If we trade for a WR (I don't think we will), I think it has to be a legit WR2 (we have lots of WR3s already). And I wouldn't want to give up...
It's not just that they are on TNF, it's that we've been the visiting team in ~ 33% of the TNF games between AFCN foes. I wonder how many home...
Crazy stat from the Terrible podcast. Road AFC North teams are 2-18 for in-division Thursday games. 0-10 in the last 10 games. Steelers are 0-7...
Yep. This is why I said (in the post you quoted):
