    I truly believe( maybe I am Nieve) that the Rooney's have got to look at this
    and ask what are we not doing right. How can this happen this often?

    I am not a Tomlin fan however he is our coach and I support him. I am not into the whole Cowher/Tomlin thing, don't make sense no way to prove anything and if there was why? What I will say is this we win as a team and lose as a team. There is so much that we don't see as a fan, it is easy to complain about play calling when it don't work. In the Raven game if we make the 4th and 1 and go on to win the game most if not all would either say it was a great call or just out right forget about it.

    In the last 4 years we have lost to 14 teams under .500...I heard this on ESPN last week. Is that on MT....BB....Injuries.....The D.....Oline.....Playcalling....Roster..... I think it is on everyone! I will say this to lose to a team that had it's starting QB vs us on the roster for 12 days is just wrong if you are a team that thinks you have Super Bowl potential. We have so many problem on this team right now none bigger the injuries, I read here someone pointed out how much we have lost. A lot of people had the Colts in the SB preseason and look what happened to them with the Luck injury, or the Cowboys who are another good example. MT and staff have done a good job with this team in that area. Also players have stepped up as well in that area.

    I think for some odd reason we get a little cocky going back to the Cowher days when we are playing "lesser" teams. I have no idea why but I will say it is both players and coaches.......and it needs to change!!!!!

    Mike Pettine they just said on the NFL Network is going to be fired after the game today. The players and coaches in Cleveland both know it. So if the Steelers can't find a way to win this game with all that going on then Tomlin himself should be fired.

    When is the last time the Steelers won a playoff game? Is that acceptable? Tomlin is the HC and needs to be fired.

    It's been 6 years if they fail to win one this year. With Ben Roethlisberger as the quarterback!! All of the other top tier quarterbacks have won multiple playoff games since then; Brady, Manning (both), Rodgers, Brees, Wilson.

    Other QBs that have won playoff games since Ben include:
    Matt Schaub
    Tim Tebow
    Colin Kaepernick
    Joe Flacco
    Matt Ryan
    Andrew Luck
    Phillip Rivers
    Cam Newton
    Tony Romo

    WOW! This is DEPRESSING!!!
