why are all the supposed issues in the draft Tomlin's fault?
none of us are in the room and have no real idea what the dynamics are. The draft is supposed to be the GMs job with input from Tomlin, scouting and the Rooneys
all this other **** is pure speculation
Yes….i kind of chuckle when I hear everything is all CMT’s fault. Like all picks are made by him and him alone. Of course when a guy like TJ gets picked,you never hear great pick by Mike. Years ago I was questioning The whole Teams philosophy from Kevin to ownership,to coaching.
It’s not just a one man show. Obviously with Kahn and Wiedel as the newer hires the philosophy has changed. The GM can and should be the architect of the team. With the power to change and have last say Over any coach. Including,I might add,the termination or hire of any coach. When many were blaming Tomlin for not firing Canada,I was blaming the GM. And yes….i blame Tomlin for hiring him in the first place,but the final say should come from the GM.
I have no idea if Tomlin had a bit too much power in the years before Kahn. I do think KC was a very good GM in his first 3/4 of his tenure. Then really fell off. To blame Tomlin for absolutely everything is ridiculous.
And for all the posters that will say you’re a Tomlin apologist (actually one guy in particular) I firmly believed In a new coach after the Tebow disaster. Many years ago. And have said it many times. I never thought he would get the team over the hump with his on the field Philosophy. And he has not done anything to change my mind. Playing safe,turtle ball in the last playoff game was just another prime example.
