Here you are with a back up qb playing. As a coaching staff don't you have to stress fundamentals to the team leading up to the game? Instead we commit turnovers, penalties galore, and lose the special teams battle. :der:
You tell me how this doesn't reflect poorly on the coaching?
The Steelers had not many turnovers in offense before the latest games
The penalties have never been a problem before this year
Did we lose the turnover battle last week? Are we losing it today?Quote:

Yes, yes, and yes.
Special teams is still a head scratcher.
Yes, fundamentals are a coaching problem. Time to get back to basics.
Mike Momlin has done such a horrible job this year as the Pittsburgh Holders' head coach
I completely agree. It seems like every other pass completion a yellow flag for holding is thrown on the Steelers. We beat ourselves more than other teams beat us!Quote:

Starting a 3rd string QB is one thing, but to not get the rest of the team well-prepared is another. The RB's started fumbling and it just snowballed from there. Now the Offense is in No-Mans Land.
Fine, let's fire him then, if for no other reason than that I won't have to read that stupid fucking nickname on every fucking post.Quote:

You can't deny that this team is never prepared against bad teams. Every year with Tomlin, it's the same thing over and over again.Quote:

I just don't know. This team is so fundamentally out of whack it drives you batty! :frusty:
I don't know if we'd go 5-11 with a qb of Flacco's quality.
I understand the 3rd string QB thing, but when every running back fumbles, and one of them twice, a WR who drops everything that comes his way, and offensive linemen think that a good block means grabbling ahold of a jersy, then there is poor coaching plain and simple! The poor coaching starts with the top dog, Mike Tomlin.

since 2007,the steelers are 4-4 without Ben...Not bad
Look at the record of Bill Belichik without Tom Brady.....
Every coach look bad with a bad QB
Yeah, and they had the same problem when Bill Cowher was HC. And just like now, fickle ass fans were calling for his head.Quote:

The sky will be falling for about a week or so. The reasonable fans will put our heads down and push through the bullshit like we always do after a bad loss.Quote:

Why is it unreasonable to point out that this team is fundamentally flawed, and even with Ben this team commits too many unforced errors to be elite?Quote:

Also, why are you punishing the team by benching your first 3 RBs in favor of a player who barely weighs 180? I understand they each fumbled, but it does nothing to bench all of your RBs. Dwyer was the only RB who was actually hit in such a way that it was difficult to hold onto the ball. I know there is never an excuse for a fumble and I do agree with sending a player to the bench, but not all 3 RBs.
Because you know what the next step is. And I personally do not want to read that overreactive bullshit all week long.Quote:

this is completely pathetic your overreaction since the steelers not make mistakes like this very often
Sorry, I'm too busy responding to the twelve other overreaction threads to address this :chuckle:Quote:
