the discussion is real:
Is Tomlin showing much really?
You may think that he is, and I'm cool with that. I don't think that I am the prayers answered to get football gods. I will say this - there is zero creativity in this coaching staff, even when the wildcat has been used. There is zero deception in any play, the calls are really predictable (because the standard is the standard), and the expectation is that we can line up, call a play, run it very well, because we can impose our will on any team. The players just don't execute.
It's old. Many of you know that I've been done with Tomlin for many years. How many of you are there now? It just seems that there are so many philosophical angles the guy maintains that give the advantage to the opposition over and over again.
It's been my stance that Ben has covered for the lame coaching for many years. Now that he is not there to bail Tomlin out, it all looks stupid. Before you say "It's the OC, not Tomlin" remember that he is the only constant. There have been some pretty good and some really lousy OCs during Ben's tenure. Why is this still going on?
I said my piece. I'll start watching when the cheaters are no longer allowed to cheat, and we get a new coaching staff. Until then, we all know what will happen, and I don't have energy to pour down a drain. I'm too friggin' old for that.
Go Steelers.
