Rooney Admits Some Fault in Harrison Debacle

[Steeler Nation]

Two days before Christmas the Steelers released James Harrison so that they could activate Marcus Gilbert. A few days later the former Defensive MVP signed with their biggest enemy. That didn’t sit well with many fans, or former teammates. Maurkice Pouncey, and Bud Dupree were the move vocal against Harrison. They cited many different microcosm […]

**** Harrison. The cancer that he is/was.

 

[ark steel]

Sounds like he said a whole lot of nothing.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

Shoulda told MRS to put Deebo in on passing downs.
I still maintain that it was political and they didn't want a 39 year old playing as good or better than their recent high draft picks.

Who is this Harrison you speak of?

 

[slashsteel]

Deebo handled the situation almost as bad as anyone can, he can go **** himself. My stance hasn't changed.

 

[Emmitt Mason]

I don't like the way the STEELERS handle this situation.
Harrison is a great player and has been for a long time.
He deserves better.
I don't blame him for going to the Patriots. He needs to work too.

Art has class. Before he said we mishandled the DB situation. Now he's covering for the Steeler again. Rather he's covering for a man many here, want out.

Hey Art, let Tomlin man up to these mistakes as it was he who cut Harrison, and he who hired Lake / didn't develop the DB's to their potential.

Of course Tomlin seldom if ever says my bad, unless he has to when the NFL is after him. Example the sideline thing vs the Ravens when he steeped on to the field.

You think they prioritized that over winning? And for some reason, didn't when Harrison was 38 the season before?

Yes. Seen them do it several times over the years.
In other words, do I think that Mikey Regular Season would bench a better veteran and play one of his more recent draft picks, hoping the draft pick has a light bulb go on and becomes good?
Jason Worilds
Jarvis Jones
Jarvis Dupree
Yes, absolutely. Mikey's ego will absolutely let him trot out an inferior player rather than admit that he makes **** draft picks on defense.

OMG....now, we not only do not listen to what they say, we wildly speculate about what they meant? Oh, wait, we have always done that.

Carry on.

When has Tomlin accepted the blame on a football decisions? Any examples?

Dude still thinks the onside kick was the right call in the playoffs and his team said they weren’t focused!

Not accepting the blame when the fault is yours isn’t good leadership.

Carry on in denial if you must, I’m correct.

What veteran was benched for Worilfs? Jarvis ended his stint in Pittsburgh on the bench.

Worilds started his last season. He had a coming out party and the Steelers were gonna pay him when he left.
