Deebo Goes Scorched Earth on Tomlin..the things you suspected: Arrogant, Petty, etc. You Are Correct.

I've been saying for the last 8 years that the team is fatally flawed. That's been Tomlin. His end should have came 10 years ago.

It is what it is.

Harrison is saying the same things I've been saying and noticing for many years. And I'm just an outsider looking in. I just have a long memory.

I'm personally going to close that chapter,because it serves no future purpose to spend too much energy on that past. It's a wrap and in the can.

Bring us football professors who check their pride and egos at the door.


The next HC has his plate full and he hasn't even been hired yet. Change good or bad almost always comes with pain.

You have to respect what Harrison said about LeBeau and Butler making him the best player he could be. Haden can't even remember the name of his last DB coach in Pittsburgh...how sad is that? And the philosophic change defensively after Tomlin got rid of Dick speaks for itself.

I thought it was good insight from a guy who is able to articulate the differences between Tomlin and Cowher, having played for both of them. A lot of the dudes singing Tomlin's praises currently have never played for another head coach.

And Harrison made that clear in the video. Haden has a completely different perspective(he came from the Browns for God's sake...) of what it takes to build championship teams. A warped perspective, he never saw what Harrison saw as far as Cowher and Co. Vs. Tomlin and Co. when it comes to team development, drafting, player roster position and schemes.

Tomlin also engages in self sabotage to stroke his ego by having scapegoats as far as coordinators and assistants go. He brought in the most inept people and I am sure now after learning what I've learned it was so that he could have CYA heads to roll...if you will. Then you have his own lack of Xs and Os ability... how proportional each aspect of those two things are to " his body of work" we will never know as the media come gold jacket time will engage in the same nut hugging with him that Brady, Bellichick, etc. get.

I hear all these other team's fans wanting Tomlin...I say have at it hoss, see where it gets you.

Right. It sucks when other teams can tell what is up just by a glance at the line up.

Tomlin never got this.

"I'm cleaning house to" to get rid of the stink of Tomlin. Significant.

Deebo needs to let Hayden talk. He interrupts him constantly.

"I don't want teachers. I want professors of the game." This

I'm not saying anything harrison says is inaccurate

but a guy who left with bad feelings toward the team is going to have a slanted viewpoint of everything related to the team

While this may be the case, in the stadium, at the Rats game, several present players and some former players were prominent in between play, pump up the crowd video shorts.

Deebo was by far the most frequent and the most popular.

So the Steelers still want to both utilize this former player's influence with fans AND given the 50 + great former Steelers, the team chose him above all the rest.

That means, at least to me, that the Steelers have given THEIR MIC to Deebo.

I think he can analyze why the Steelers are better off without reading personal texts.

Tomlin called him F'd up....I think that's something about Tomlin's character worth sharing. That and the fact that Harrison clearly pointed out how right before practice Mikey was wasting his time listening to "noise."

The irony that without Harrison's 100+ yard TD return in SB 43 we wouldn't even have the phrase " He won a SB with Cowher's team" to say....
