He's Jeff Fisher 2.0.
Time to move on from him.

Tomlin 0-27 when trailing by 18+ points.

It's AB's/Bell's fault.
It's Todd Haley's fault.
It's Randy Fichtner's fault.
It's Juju's fault.
It's Ben's fault.
It's Mason/Duck's fault.
It's Claypool's fault.
It's Mitch's fault.
It's Canada's fault.
It's Kenny's fault.
Running out of scapegoats for the hack.
If Art does not extend Tomlin after this year, then he is basically a lame duck coach next season. Maybe Tomlin just walks away in that situation and sets the stage for a new staff to come in?

The fact that this team can’t seem to find GP all game long is completely shocking to me week in and week out. The sloppy plays, illegal formations, the lack of a real game plan week in and week out is getting old. This team won on the back of Ben since Tomlin took over, now he doesn’t have that HOF bound QB to prop him up. I am ready for him to be out of Pittsburgh. Problem is, who is the HC that can come in here pull this team together and put together a winning staff.
Tomlin now blaming the turnovers, they got 7 points on theirs and we got 0. He looks clueless.
The Rooneys would be stupid not to trade Tomlin. There are 10 teams that would take him. Make it happen, Art!

Mike Tomlin setting historical records and they are not good ones.

The Steelers found Tomlin and Cowher from nowhere. They can do it again.
It's time to move on.
I wish some reporters would ask Tomlin tougher questions

There’s something systematically wrong with this team and the one constant has been deer in headlights Tomlin

This is a low point for the Tomlin era. He has no answers. Time to move on.

What sucks is we would be challenging for a SB if we had a good coach like Shanahan. This team and a good coaching staff we would be leading our division right now with the exact same personnel we have. We probably have 2 losses (SF and Jax). Leftwich was begging to come in and be the OC, at the very least we could have hired him as the QB coach when we fired Canada to audition him for OC next season. Tomlin refuses to make any real changes at all or when it is too late.
This. Its time for him to go.

Funny how this thread was started back on September 28, 2014, where the Steelers just got done laying a Tomlin special to Mike Glennon and the winless Tampa Bay Bucs with Ben, Bell, and AB at home. Of course, that 2014 team would up losing to more bad teams that season and flopped in the postseason as well, and the Steelers have won nothing of note since. '76 and the boys had this fraud pegged from the get go.
It's been nearly ten years since. Ten years waiting for Tomlin to stop the mediocrity, and it's just gotten worse. Time for Tomlin to get on with his life's work.

Listening to these media clowns defending Mike Tomlin after this game makes me want to throw up. They are putting everything on the quarterbacks. Everything. They are basically saying Pickett is trash and poor Tomlin just has no chance with these guys on his team.
Poor Mike Tomlin? The same Mike Tomlin that didn't prepare Kenny Pickett for significant playing time in training camp his rookie season. He names Mitch Trubisky the starting QB, then needs to replace him with Kenny Pickett after 4 games.
He hired Matt Canada and enabled Canada to stay way too long as he destroyed this offense, handcuffed Kenny Pickett, and prevented his development.
Watching this game and seeing Tomlin's team completely outcoached on both sides of the ball with the original gameplan is sickening. Falling behind 21-3 and being completely out coached out of the gate again.
Watching his time mismanagement throughout this entire game is sickening. Blowing timeouts with no rhyme or reason is mind-numbing. Calling a timeout with 2:41 left in the first half, leaving only one timeout remaining actually made the Patriots be more aggressive to pick up the first down instead of just playing defense and trying to get the ball back and having time left to try to score.
Nearly every decision he made during the game was incorrect. They literally came back in this game in spite of Mike Tomlin.
He wasted a defensive interception by not taking the field goal to get within one score. He went for it on 4th and 3 and got nothing.
The defense and special teams bail him out immediately and they block a punt to get the ball deep in Patriots territory and they manage to punch it in and get the 2 point conversion.
Then he calls timeout and goes for it on fourth and inches from their own 30, then punt the ball just a couple plays later with more ridiculous play calling and with less timeouts.
With the ball and a chance to win the game with over 2 minutes left in the game and the 2-minute warning available, they decide to go empty set on 3rd down and 2 instead of having a back in the game to either make the defense defend the run, or they could hand off and probably get the first down. They throw on third down and get nothing. Still over 2 minutes left, they go for it on fourth down again. They throw and don't get the first down. Pretty much game right there.
How is this guy getting praised? Did they even watch the game?
Enough is enough with this blind praise of Mike Tomlin.

I've been watching the Steelers for over 60 years and have never rooted against them in my life, but if the Steelers are 8-8 going into the last game of the season and they have no chance to make the playoffs, I will be rooting for the Steelers to lose just so I won't have to hear "Tomlin has never had a losing season" ever again.
Matt Canada could have called two better plays in that situation than the plays that were actually called. Seriously.

They probably should have spread them out and run the ball on 3rd and 2. They probably get the first down there and you go to the 2 minute warning. Instead they go empty set and run two pass plays to roll right into the 2 minute warning and turnover the ball on downs.
The coaching and play calling just continues to be horrific. They showed signs of doing things better, but this game was a disaster.
Tomlin won't be getting fired. This off-season will be interesting though as 2024 is the last year of his contract, if there is no extension, Tomlin will likely be let go when it expires.

I'm totally with you on that!!

You could maybe have called two better plays…Matt Canada could not.
And there lies the problem. If he’s not extended, what OC is going to come in and agree to a contract on the potential that this guy could be let go after 2024? The Rooneys have not had the foresight to figure this out well before continuing on and on with the Matt Canada experiment…the hiring of Canada from the very beginning has been the biggest blunder in the organizations history. There’s not a bigger draft blunder or roster move or coaching move than the hiring of Canada and then keeping him for 4 seasons.
Basically, Tomlin won't be going anywhere unless he decides too.

With three coaches in 55 years, I doubt that is a big worry for a prospective OC. With half the teams in the league, the coach getting fired is a likelihood.
