But this is 3 straight December collapses under Tomlin, with a great offense in 2018, with a great defense in 2019, with and without Ben. The guy has no ability to adjust. If the game plan is working, we look good, if not we're ******!

We obviously need Ben’s $ moving forward. We need a center, guard, tackle or TWO.
 
Through all of our O coordinators, the 2 common denominators are Ben and Tomlin. Ben, even if a diva, should be able to be controlled by the head coach. So, most of the blame sits right with the head coach. Fire Fichtner for what? A new O in possibly Ben's last year or few if he signs a new contract to save cap space? I don't see it happening.

They're never getting back to the Superbowl with Tomlin. I'm absolutely confident in that.

The crap that I have endured for being the guy to say this. It was obvious for years. Blame RF, but he is there because Tomlin won't do anything about it.

He talks about making the routine plays, not living in fears, standards being standards, etc. It's all talk.
 
the short pass offense were so bad last year without ben it blows my mind the didn't fire fucktner. its only marginally better with HOF ben back but its been long pass the time for a change. after munch left we have had zero running game. fuking ZERO! the receivers are talented but sloppy! washington has been league a few years now he acts like a rookie, clueless. they should have overhauled the offense in off season. the idea could just move a tackle to guard and you'd fix the running game is a joke. the defense is good enough to win but we were embarrasseed tonite on both offense and defense.
 
2018/2019, and now 2020

The December collapse has begun again. Who is responsible?

We don’t need a whole new offense. I am sure we have the plays we need we just don’t call a game for ****.

The grim reaper of injuries and poor offensive play calling. Pretty simple. We are missing half of our defense and 3/4 of our starting linebackers and a really good backup in the middle. We lost both our left guards. We are worn down and beat up.

You do a lot of blaming Tomlin and exonerating everyone else. Just an observation. Can you name one thing, just one, that Ben has done wrong? 'Cause I can name a few.

Been saying that for years. Just wait till Ben retires. Last year they could hope for next year, that won’t be the case when he hangs it up.
 
Can you name one thing Tomlin has done wrong? Fichtner is Tomlins puppet, you think he doesn't have any say in whats going on?

Tomlin has no clue other tan having a stacked roster and having his players make great plays, he sucks at x and o s.

At an embarrassing level.
 
Two weeks in a row that the other team made adjustments while Tomlin stares straight ahead with no clue what to do. We've seen it year after year.
 
Looks to me like Ben's arm is toast. He's like old Manning out there, only without the running game.
