Real talk: we know why we're stuck with bug eyes and it isn't because he brings any special skill to the table. He was lucky enough to be given Cowher's team for the first half of his career and even a broken, noodle-arm Ben is still able to keep the Cheerleader at .500 in modern day. The 2008 team dragged his incompetent a*s across the end-zone, gifting him a SB title for his resume. Truth be told, they could have brought in the guy slinging crack in the Tampa Bay parking lot that day and had him in Tomlin's place and we would have still ended with the same result.
Now, I know that a lot of you "woke" b*tches likely agree, despite being afraid to admit it publicly. I think that Senile Rooney and his family's willingness to keep Mr Pom Pom on the payroll is actually hurting other franchises from giving preference to others due to skin color. It seems like every year we hear numerous minorities (or those who want to be perceived as "woke) publicly expressing disappointment with the lack of head coaching vacancies being filled by minority candidates. But why the hell should an owner subject his team and fanbase to something as ridiculous and offensive as this (let's face it .. The Rooney Rule in itself is an act of racism .. just the socially "ok" kind). Cheerleader Tomlin was never worthy of a head coaching position. His players brought him places, not the other way around. And no sh*t he wants a veteran QB. It's not as if this guy as the gift of being able to mold anything. Hell, he can't even hire competent coordinators. Why expose himself even more than he has already been exposed?
To those that think that "better" doesn't exist, you've either been brainwashed into believing this, or you are part of the problem.
