Maybe Butler isn't to blame for the poor defense?

[Steelers1356]

Looks like Tomlin was running the defense:

The more this curtain gets pulled back, I am convinced now more than ever this team wins on talent alone. With some discipline and coaching, they could maybe win a playoff game.

Fire Tomlin?

 

[Free Agent]

So, why even have Butler on the staff?

 

[Steeler Pride]

There is one common denominator to almost all of what ails this team right now and it starts at the top.

Heat sink.

So that people blame him when the defense fails instead of the person calling the shots.

He still handles most of the duties. Tomlin is just putting his stamp on the D for better

er

or

worse

Bouchette: Tomlin ran the defense

Bouchette just put out another article stating that Tomlin ran the defense. This would explain by no one on defense was let go.

Tomlin better let Butler do his job next year. The more reports that come out, the more it sounds like Tomlin is in over his head at this point.

The team wins in spite of it's coaching staff, not because of the coaching staff. Ben conceals a LOT of the problems with this team.

Bingo...

Doesn't surprise me.

I know there are too many Tomlin nut cups around here to discuss seriously but who can spot the touch of narcissisttic behaviors in Tomlin? So arrogant it's not even funny. He refuses to accept responsibility for ANYTHING. Maybe it's just me and that's fine but it's pretty clear.

 

[mdk2]

It looks like Bouchette had a long discussion with the Toddster last night. How else would this info be leaked out?

 

[Coryea]

Umm I've been saying this Butler took over, that this is not his defense and that Tomlin was controlling alot of it, you could clearly see it.

He just knows he's untouchable. Rooney's don't fire head coaches.

Even if this is marginally true, it explains a lot, and Tomlin should be done.
So Tomlin should have been let go, and Munch promoted to HC, and Todd and Keith left alone to run their schemes.

Whoever the head coach is should be allowed to pick their own coaching staff. If you are going to be held accountable then you better be allowed to pick who works under you.
