    He's not getting fired after going 13-3. As pissed off as we are no owner would fire someone under those circumstances.

    Unfortunately you are right. As long as Tomlin keeps meeting the 8 win benchmark, mike brown rooney will continue to pretend like everything is fine. However, these past 6 weeks show how utterly useless Tomlin is as head coach without an effective ben

    But..but...Tomlin never had a losing season. It must be the punter’s fault.

    Dan Bylsma.

    Penguins fans will understand what I'm talking about. Thank God the Pens made the change before it was too late.

    You mean like getting swept in the first round in 2019 and following it up by getting bounced in the qualifying round 3-1 last year? Whatever...

    Back to back cups. That doesn't happen without Dan getting the boot.

    Mike Sullivan changed the identity of the team. Also changed the game of the NHL. He's a reason why the game is played with so much speed now. Crosby and Malkin's career look different without Sullivan.


    Tho to be fair, Dan was replaced with Mike Johnston first, which was bad, but he was fired quickly.

    Should be one of the better teams in the East and a playoff team. If Crosby and Malkin stay healthy, maybe they can get one more Cup but they are aging unfortunately.

    Sorry, but I'll take the back-to-back cups - something Bylsma will probably never achieve. Heck, I liked Dan when he took over, but he was a one trick pony and too arrogant to change his game plan (which sounds like another head coach.)

    45 and 48 points given up in the last two playoff games.

    Horribly outcoached by a team that didn't even have its head coach. I'd love to see the excuses for THIS one.

    Tomlin is truly clueless, the end of this season was flat out embarrassing, yet we will be forced to listen to the local talking heads pour on their admiration for Tomlin.

    And pretty significant underachievement ever since. Kinda the same rap on Tomlin, no?

    It's okay you guys. Ben wants to come back for another year and play until he's 45.

    Let's not forget Bylsma was hired by the Sabres and with less talent the Sabres became a last place team under his watch before quickly firing him

    I still can't get over not going for it on 4th and one. It's the playoffs, momentum was shifting.

    The team has no confidence to convert short yardage. They're totally finesse, and have been for years.

    That 4th and one was definitely a bad call, but remember, we don’t live in our fears or something like that

    Re: Fire Tomlin - 2021 Edition

    Tomlin didnt sail passes high tonight, throw 4 INT and a couple more passes that should have been picked off.

    The window closed 2 years ago to win a Super Bowl, so I dont know why anybody is surprised. Steelers winning 12 games was honestly the biggest surprise of the season and a pleasant surprise at that. Tomlin will be back and should be back, but a lot of whiney little babies that never lived thru 1983 as a Steeler fan will have to throw their fits around here, so just let the tears flow.

    15 years ago. Since then, the San Diego/LA Chargers have been through 3 HCs (looking for a 4th now), have gone 116-108 in the regular season and have made a grand total of two postseason appearances in the last ELEVEN years to include zero AFC Championships and zero Super Bowls.

    Careful what you wish for...you just might get it.

    Marty deserve a lot of the blame! Had a HOF RB and HOF TE and plus a above average young QB at the time. His play calling and time management was beyond awful! Yes I watched then and know sh!t.
