    The use of timeouts was bizarre in the first half as well. At the time, I wondered if it was due to any lingering injuries/decreased mobility for Ben. Weight of evidence points more to incompetent clock management.

    There's no reason to go all existential on us.

    Long ago, John Madden calculated the average of a timeout as being 17 seconds and I think that is about right. Tomlin definitely contributed to the loss by not using timeouts before the 2 minute warning. He may be a players coach, but he has nothing much above the shoulders and his decisions have cost us several potential wins.

    He was having a little fun with the way you worded it, not everyone knows English is your second language. No worreis Freak :thumbs up:

    Im not jumping on the fire Tomlin bangwagon, he still has put together what looks to be an excellent team. Some of his in game decisions are hurting them though, someone (Rooneys) need to get in his ear about that.

    My apologies, Freak; I forget to include a smiley sometimes when joking around. I had no idea English was your second languge, or I would have skipped it altogether - I figured you had typed it on mobile device whose spelling correction had jumbled things up on you. Happens to me all the time. o_O

    (Thanks for the heads up, BF)

    I think this a good point to keep in mind. Tomlin definitely has some characteristics that irritate me at times, but he's far from the only person of responsility in the Steeler FO.
