All I know is it would sure be nice to finally hit on a low/un-drafted player at CB for once after so many FAILs there. The Tomlin era hasn't quite "lit up the board" when it comes to acquiring decent CBs.
Man you started it out fairly positive. But then turned it right around.
You mean I acknowledged the truth? Yea, that is frowned on around here. So what I really meant is Tomlin has down just masterful at finding quality CBs in his tenure. Yeaaaaaaaaaaa, that's the ticket!
Never a problem speaking truth. But there is a difference between casually saying something about Tomlin here and there to habitually saying negative things about Tomlin. Because in reality it more than likely has been said over and over again here anyways. You are just basically beating that dead horse over and over again.. and again.
I am not a Tomlin guy. But your "truth" is the "truth" pretty much every single coach in the NFL.
I seriously don't understand your point.
When you take off the Steelers blinders Tomlin is no better or worse at many things than any other coach. We just have a bias in our perception because of the focus on Steelers over any other team. This can manifest as overly positive or negative bias. With you it tends to be overly negative where Tomlin is concerned and I am sure I trend to the positive and or optomisitic most of the time.
Read your post. You want Tomlin to stop missing on low or undrafted cb. So does everyone else. But every single team would like that also. It just does not happen all that often.
Stop missing on "low and undrafted CBs?" Yea, that would be nice, but how about stop missing on drafted CBs too? Some taken high, he misses on virtually all of them. Tre Norwood (7th rounder), Justine Layne (3rd), Cam Sutton (3rd), Artie Burns (1st rounder), Sean Davis (2nd), Golson (2nd), Grant (4th), Hawthorne (5th), Curtis Browns (3rd), Crezdon Butler (5th) and etc. A lot more missed CB picks than just undrafted guys. I thought DBs were his supposedly specialty. Not so much.
I agree with this. My problem is the easy fix stuff he suffers from - no replay coach, keeping coaches, guys who are lousy, not adjusting much, drafting really odd choices, getting out-coached, etc. I don't need to go into this further, but it baffles me.
Rereading this. You are ripping my quote of your quote. You are ripping your words. That is hilarious.
Can he punt?
We already got Bill Burr for that.
Yea, sure, keep telling yourself that. LMFAO.
One of Shades' only decent CB pick was in his 1ST year: Willie Gay. From that point on, CB picks were an unmitigated disaster. Hopefully JPJ is the beginning of the end of that horrid run.
You are the gift that keeps on giving. Thank you! Needed this on a dreary rainy day. " "
You needed MORE proof of Shades' failures? OK, there.
You are arguing with yourself. And losing
