Damn. I'm frustrated with how the team has been playing too, but get over it.
Geez - join camp Hillary already ya whining snowflakes.
Could it be? Could it JUST BE that your super-awesome team isn't all that talented after all and they're just your super coddled children that you can't believe are just not quite as good as you believe they're supposed to be?
God. Love them win they win, love them when they lose. It isn't that complicated.

No not happy if they lose at all. Most fans are not happy with our coaches. But this team is SO under archiving right now. I also think Ben isn't even close to 70% back yet as in playing hurt. But with big games coming up they'll either step up or fall apart. I'm not ready to see them fall apart.

so when fans complain they are coddled because they expect this team to play better than what they have shown?
I think it is coddled when they L one or two and a meltdown
but when they lose 4 out of 5 and continue to come up short year after year after year after year....
it is no longer spoiled children, it is disgusted with repetitive ****** play
and all that goes into that continuous pattern of suck from the first game to last.
and then comes the realization that this team will never sniff another SB for a long time
with a franchise QB a elite RB and elite WR
to have these three in place and then continued suck is even worse than if it was a mediocre QB and ok WRs and a OK RB.
This team does less with more than any other franchise
so no fans don't have to like it or get over it....
we can keep wishing for change and hoping for W's
but reality and fantasy are two different monkey's
quoted for the absolute TRUTH!

See, that's what I'm talking about. Bell has been far less exceptional than "elite" this year. And he didn't play much last year so I can't really say that was too elite. And the year before that he spend about half the season out with injuries too so "elite" seems a bit over-parenty to me. Now that rookie ******* in Dallas, I think he's playing at an elite level so far this year. In fact, in the head-to-head he pretty much handed our "elite guy" his ***. So maybe our guy is just pretty darn good and if we all stopped assuming the Steelers were for some reason God-Inpired to win the Championship this year due to exceptional breeding and super-human talent beyond the reckoning of common mortals we may come to understand they just aren't quite as good as about 10 or 12 other teams in the league.
And if Ben Roethlisberger isn't playing out of his mind, Antonio Brown becomes Tony Brown. Who? You say? Exactly...
Top ALL that painful truth with another one, the fact the the Steeler's head coach one day hopes to attain the lofty goal of mediocrity in his profession and you can see that all the bitching and complaining are seriously misplaced. I get it. It's going to happen. I do it myself. But just try to accept that The Steelers of 2016 are probably truly about a 11th or 12th ranked team. And those are the teams that really really struggle to make the playoffs. Is it unfair? I don't know. There were injuries and suspensions and bad trades. The coaching didn't adjust as one hoped it could, but in the end the talent probably isn't strong enough to take on those top 5 or 6 teams that will kick the living snot out of them anyway.
And as we know, CMT is utterly incapable of comprehending that his team could lose to a "bad team". Thus the Steelers tend to walk in to trap games like drunk sailors with the clap. But you all act like this is shocking. That's what I find well... shocking.
Frankly, I was honestly pleased, but a bit surprised that the Browns didn't notch their first win today. Truly, that's exactly the kind of team that CMT tends to lose to. I'm glad the Steelers rallied. I'd love to see them string some victories together. It would be good for the fan base and good for them.
All I saw post game wise was Tomlin was pissed off about some calls/non calls and the ref's? WTF? The ref's basically gave us that TD before half. I did see a bunch of dropped TD passes though. Why not ***** about that? He always blames someone else.

The football forum is getting difficult to be a part of at this point. It has always had it's share of incessant whiners but it has become a lot worse lately.
hard to rate what Antonio is without Big Ben as Landry was easily a less than adequate option
We know what we have in the fabulous three. If one isn't performing up to par it is up to the head coach to put him in the best position to succeed.
And this head coach isn't putting his players in the best position to succeed.
His whole body of work supports this claim.
In your own words you point to more than one problem.
And that is in fact what it is a lot more problems than one two three four etc.
I think he is on the edge of losing this team.
Hell even some of the best coaches have done that. Everyone has a time when the team stops responding.
Regardless of reasons.
I believe that time is here and now and will further show itself throughout the remainder of the season.
then you have the whiners who hate debate and whine because it isn't what they want to hear
want the forum to not debate? go to somewhere where there isn't debates going on
it is called a discussion forum
if you want everything apples and oranges when the team is giving us melons
I have some bad news for you
