In most cities, a Final Four appearance in any sport is a cause for a celebration. In Pittsburgh, we want to fire the coach and his top assistants when our team finally loses. How foolish we are. How spoiled.

Ron Cook, Pittsburgh's biggest cheerleader. Surprised he even wrote the article, and didn't write a 4 page report on the Pirates 4th utility infielder

Guy made an entire career out of saying 'we'll see what happens'

Edit: I also love how Cook went on and on the last 2 days about how great Hogan is, and how he was 2nd in YPC this year in the league. For some reason he fails to mention the guy only caught 38 balls all year. Then again, with Butler's defense, Hulk Hogan or Paul Hogan could have put up 100 and 2 TDs

I saw fans on twitter saying that Mike Tomlin would be Lovie Smith without Ben!

Maybe we'll know soon if Ben retires.

True or not?

:rolleyes:

Talking trash wasn't enough. The Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers decided to trade punches.

Less than an hour before Sunday's game, Browns running back William Green and Steelers linebacker Joey Porter squared off and wildly swung at each other near midfield.

The altercation resulted in both being ejected before the opening kickoff and added another chapter to the NFL's nastiest rivalry, which had lost some of its snarl the past few years.

And I won't bother mentioning Plexispike or Lee "Paper Champions" Flowers...

And LOL @ Jake Heller - dude looks like he was probably in 3rd grade the last time Cowher coached a game, so he probably formed this opinion by listening to one of his Yinzer uncles.

Untrue. Cowher didn't have to deal with 'Snapface' 24/7. On field discipline is not the same as grown men breaking rules off the field.

Been downhill with the discipline since Forrest Douds.

Mike Tomlin told Eric Green to make that Super Bowl video.

Mike Tomlin told the Steelers players to book hotel rooms for the Super Bowl, the week prior to the 2001 AFCCG.

Mike Tomlin told Plaxico Burgess to skip their meeting before the draft, in order to watch Michigan St. in the NCAA finals. Tomlin rationalized that and drafted him anyway... and gave him a gun.

Mike Tomlin put that 500 lbs. of weed in Bam Morris' car.

Mike Tomlin slept with Bill Cowher's secretary.

Mike Tomlin caused cancer in Bill Cowher's wife.

Mike Tomlin also goes by the names Beelzebub, Mephistopheles, and Hank.

NFL's Best Coaches 2017

The fact that Arians is #5 on that list negates any credibility that list has. Arians was, by far, one of the worst head coaches in the league last season. He was downright awful. Polar opposite of what he has been in the past...lol.

Tomlin has benefitted greatly from having a top shelf QB and one of the most stable organizations in the NFL for his entire tenure.

I think we will really know how good he is when Ben retires.

Cautiously optimistic but you never know...

Yeah, Arians isn't a top 5 coach. 7-8-1 last year despite having one of the most talented teams in the leagues and playing an easy schedule that included 4 games against the 49ers and Rams. Not to mention that he only has 1 playoff win his entire career, a home OT win against an injury depleted Packers team that had a losing record over it's previous 11 games, a game that went to OT partly because Arians gave the Packers 40 extra seconds with his patented brain-dead play-calling.

Why is it ALWAYS 2 more? We could have had 2 more SBs if only........!

If I was head coach, we would have won at least 5 more super bowls. Just sayin......

:party:


Somebody always has all the answers.

Ken Whisenhunt's career record including 3 years with Kurt Warner is 52-73, postseason included. Oops

And Russ Grimm has been to Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh West and Pittsburgh Nashville. I didn't even know he went to Tennessee last year (big surprise lol). All as an asst.coach. Nobody wants to hire him as a head coach.

Russ Grimm is old school. He is everything that is pure and good about the NFL. Russ Grimm would have made Pittsburgh great again. Missed opportunity. Sad.

You've finally seen the light Mojouw! :lol:

Uh, LeBeau has been a pretty substantial reason why Tomlin (and Cowher, for that matter) "can't beat NE" and whose defensive scheme Tom Brady has made a career out of shredding on a routine basis. :coffee:

Tomlin & Butler must still be drinking the LeBeau kool aid. Tomlin says the team won't change philosophy just to beat NE. I take from this they enjoy being embarrassed.

And a coach with no vision that left the Steelers with an aging, broken down offensive line and only one backup legitimately good enough to come in and take over in a position. Here's the last year of Russ Grimm.

Marvel Smith - 28, broken down. Missed 4 games the following year and 11 games the year after that.
Alan Faneca - 30.
Jeff Hartings - 34, retired after that year.
Kendall Simmons - 27, battling Diabetes and never really came back from it after being diagnosed.
Max Starks - 24, the following year, he started only 4 games. Year after that, 11 games. In 2010, started 7 games. He only had a couple of good years.

So, who did they have for backups?
Center - Chukki Okobi. How bad do yo have to be when your team loses their starting center and still lets you go to another team.
RG - Kemoeatu. Okay at best.
RT - Willie Colon. Not a bad player, probably the best we had behind the starters, but his offside penalties killed drives.
Trai Essex. Yeah.


Of that group of backups, only one was able to take the starting job and do half-way well. And that was Colon. (will never forget him pancaking the Bengals DLman in that game).

Russ Grimm? No thanks. We just climbed out of the hole he made for us three or so years ago.
