I'd say draft picks might be his weakest trait as a coach, so maybe someone could tutor him a bit? And don't start on the whole Blake thing, because he barely had any effect on the game today, and we don't have that many options at CB anyways. Maybe drafting some CBs in earlier rounds a few years ago might've helped?Quote:

Big difference losing big to one of the top 2 teams in the conference than being swept by a 4-10 Ravens team with a street free agent playing QB.

When you lose 7 of 11 to under .500 teams and 8 of last 11 to BAL that my friends is a pattern and not a good one. #Steelers

No, Tomlin's not the worst coach ever, but he's pretty much proven to me that he's just average and that's all he's ever going to be. I'd prefer a coach that's better than just average.
That the Steelers beat by double digits earlier in the year with a 4th string QB...Quote:

So what if Deangelo was getting huge yardage? We played Baltimore's game by running so much. We slowed the game down and played right into their hands. Ben and the WRs never got into rhythm.
Defensively, Baltimore has a QB that was at home playing with himself until 2 weeks ago. They have zero WRs that can stretch the field. What's our plan? We've been recently successful (somewhat) by playing press and bringing tons of pressure. for some reason today, we give them 12yd cushions.
Yes, coaches this stupid should be fired. Sorry. Tomlin sucks.
Harbaugh came up with that game plan and it worked perfectly for he and the Ravens.Quote:

I have to agree here, every lose is not equal. Losing consistently to bad teams is a big problem for tomlin, I thought he fixed it the year but no still the same under prepared teamQuote:

funny how this place loves Tomlin so much ....
tell me what other team with a Franchise QB , the leagues best WR , one of the leagues best deep threat WR's , a premier running game , a solid O-line ....
and fails to make the playoffs 3 of the last 5 years and is one and done the two years they do make it ....
Wow guys....if you need to kill yourselves........don't do it. I just drove 200 miles back home. I'm still thinking that the forth and one on the first series was a good call. We have just played two huge games and won, and these guys had nothing left but to kick our ass, they did not...but they won...I am as mad as any one...and Boykin is not the second coming
Still waiting on that dynasty to materialize in Green Bay since they beat us in the SB five years ago. Just sayin'...Quote:

No one said Boykin was, rather he better than Blake, don't you agree? Yet Tomlin will start Blake next week.

speaking of that SB 5 years ago .... that afc championship game we won to get there was the last playoff game we won
I am not a Blake fan, but Boykin played a whole worse today.... Want the pictures. Everyone got their wish today..Quote:

well technically GB best WR has been out since the beginning of the year with an ACL , they haven't had a good running game most of the year and the O-Line has not be very good either ...Quote:

one could say we have been without Bell but truth be told we have not missed a beat with D-Will in his place , sure Ben was down but we have managed many of these losses to bad teams with him playing so that excuse doesnt quite fly either ... so there is that
Second-half defense was not bad; 7 points allowed. They looked better, too. The story there is that we just could not move the ball and Ben making stupid throws.
What it looks like to me is: Blake on the field - whichever of Boykin, Cockrell, Gay and Allen are in all play worse. Blake not on the field - they play regular defense.
I noticed that in the first half today, Cockrell was the odd man out on most of the downs. Blake was there with his 10-yard cushion PLUS immediate backpedaling.
For once, defense didn't blatantly cost us the game or almost cost us the game ... still, can't help but think we could've done better against Ryan Mallet and his bunch of no-names.
^ Can somebody decipher this post for me? I can't decode it and I'm afraid I might lose sleep wondering about it.Quote:
