I love when all the negative Nancy's come out of the wood work hahaha.
Its not rocket science.
1.) Bill Billicheck is one of the greatest coaches that the NFL has ever seen. I love Tomlin, but Billicheck is on another level.
2.) Brady is still far superior to Ben Roethelisberger. BB needs weapons- and a lot of them- to succeed. On the other hand, Brady can feast with no name lacrosse players..
And most importantly-
3.) Our #1 offensive weapon went down early in the game.
Its really not difficult to understand why we lost that game.
Ben just needs a couple receivers to catch the ball. Those WRs yesterday were pathetic. Ben won SBs with Hines, Randle El(who did nothing once he left Pitt) and Cedrick Wilson as a 3. As for running backs, old Jerome and fall down at any sight of contact Willie Parker. Then in his next SB win, he did it with one of the worst OLs in the history of football. My point is, he doesn't need great players around him, he just need guys to do their jobs once in a while.

75% of why we lost was poor coaching and having the players ready. 25% was on poor execution.
I was thinking this this morning. Now we know zone doesn't work especially well against the Pats**** but even so, ISN'T THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD 12 YARDS FROM THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE SOMEONE'S ZONE???

Yes it's our slowest LB, we had Harrison dropping there, as well as Timmons. On a 3rd and long I think it was, we dropped into zone and our zone was 3 yards behind the first down marker, you can't have your LB's drop beyond the 1st down marker there, Edleman just ran to the marker and turned around for an easy conversion, at least make him fit the throw over the LB's.
What I'd really like to know is how they can have these meetings and tell experienced players, "This is our gameplan. We are going to play almost exclusively zone coverage. We will play bend don't break and hope we can stop them in the redzone"
My response would be. "Coach. Can we possibly see some film of this working throughout a game at all. EVER"
The refs are not allowed to call a fumble on Brady. Nor can they call pass interference On New England
Our coaching can not win this game.
They know out tendencies and call accordingly.
For the 5th time a soft zone does NOT work vs Brady. Just blitz and hit him over and over.
Tomlin is partly responsable for distractions and this very poor game plan.
I hope someone hires Haley as a head coach. And I'd like to see Tomlin gone. His record vs New England is not good enough.
And how about this ... Marcus Dupree, "Rush ... the ... quarterback." It is what he does best.
Instead, he dropped into coverage as much as he rushed the QB, including that TD throw to some no-name receiver where Brady had about 10 seconds to find the guy.
