Kovacevic: How are the Steelers doing this? ‘Everything starts with Coach Tomlin’ ?

I still want to know what in the hell Tomlin meant when he said, you play defense differently when Ben is in there? WTF does that even mean?
So when you Ben is in there you play bad defense, when Ben isn't you play good defense?

i gotta wonder why tomlin didnt coach his *** off the last 10 years when the roster was loaded and everybody was healthy
 
You are NOT gonna be happy anytime soon. Not sure what more Tomlin can do to please you this year ???

Tomlin is coaching his ******* *** off and making the rest of the NFL coaches look bad & is the Leading COY Candidate....

Here's one thing he can do to please me... Next time our offensive gameplan starts with "run it up the middle against a stacked defense on every 1st and 2nd down", he can walk over to Randy Fichtner and put his foot up his ***.
 
That statement pretty much says it all. I hear Freddie Kitchens might available. Be careful what you wish for.

Tomlin is alot better than that fool, but Tomlin had far less experience when we hired him than Kitchens did prior to the Browns hiring him.

I think it means you have to rely on your D more to win games, as opposed to relying on Ben doing it for you.

And one last aside:

The entire league is dogshit this year. Not a single team is flawless, and all teams are mediocre. You have BAL and SF as the most complete teams in the league. Out side of that, any team can win it this year. Playoffs will be unexpected to be sure.

What????? How about you rely on your defense to stop people and let Ben score points? Why does it have to be one or the other? Is there a rule that says you can't win 30-16?
What he said is borderline the dumbest thing I've heard. How about you dominate on defense and score points on offense.

I don't know what's so hard to understand? Your D has to work harder to help your team win when you're missing your franchise QB.

*See every team ever...

No, I am pretty darn sure Tomlin was simply confounding the statement and was saying that with this defense, he plays offense differently. Less risk, more willingness to simply punt the ball and let the defense do its work.

My opinion at least.
