The biggest concern.....

Come on, no one will claim Ben had a great game, but that failed touchdown was square on the shoulders of Bryant. Ben laid it right in there for him and he failed to make the play.

That ball was slightly overthrown. It was not perfect it was not dropped in his basket so to speak. Bryant should have dived but he went for the catch standing because he knew he had a chance to score
 
Good coaches can win when their team isn't playing their best. They also don't lose to inferior opponents on a shockingly regular basis.

Maybe I worded it wrong initially but that's what I was trying to say.
Tomlin could put our offense out to play defense and it would still be the players fault

They do when your BEST player doesnt play well

It hit him in the hands and you can ignore it all you want, but if he doesn't jog the first part of the route it's an easy catch. There's a reason he had to turn on the jets once he saw the ball was coming his way.
 
Yes because those wins were all because of Tomlin's genius coaching. Anyone who watches the Steelers regularly cannot possibly believe this coaching staff (Tomlin, Haley AND Butler) are the reasons we win. They have the same game plan week in week out and we win when our players outplay the other team. Plain and simple.

Actually name one thing Tomlin has ever done to give the team an edge. Sadly it was trying to trip a kick returner on his way to the endzone.

Trouble replacing that production? I think half this board could have that production with the talent this team has had over the last decade.

So if it's all Tomlin's fault when we lose, who gets the credit when we win? Because we win an awful lot. Is it just the players? Because Tomlin built this roster and decides who starts.

You can't say it's the players fault we win and Tomlin's fault we lose. Football doesn't work that way.

I thought Colbert did a bang up off-season job..

All the way with improved corner play.

I think so far that the coaching hasn't lived up to equal billing.

Perhaps all coaches. But we all know the one solely responsible when things go wrong.

And that is my problem with the blame game. When we win its never good game coaches. We won depsite of the coaches. But when we lose its all coaches.

I dont like all the calls either. 3rd and 1 shotgun. Hate it..i dont think Hargrave should come off the field. He is the best pass rushing DL they have. But i dont ***** cause these ******* practice this **** all week. These same situations. So if you are calling 3rd and 1 shotgun 5 wide in practice execute the crap during the game.

Colbert and Tomlin work hand in glove on personnel. That's why they get called "Tombert" around here.

You're grasping at straws now. If Colbert did a "bang up" job, then so did Tomlin.
 
The talent was in position to make plays they didnt. Whether it was a drop bad throw missed tackles not recovering a fumble dropped ints. They were in position the talent didnt make them.

And the coaches yearly keeps the same pattern. Soon or a later when things don't get to the point in needs to be at, there is only one person to blame.

To a point Colbert is still responsible if there is ****** talent filling the roster.

But that isn't the case.

It is the team under performing which is yearly. And back to the same **** once again.

But you will defend everything that is your skin color to your dying days.

I don't want a participation trophy, I want a SB trophy. If the team under-performs early that SB trophy won't come.
 
Meanwhile Brady and Rogers lead their team down the field for game winning or tying scores. Oh no that was belichek and McCarthy my bad

Bruh nobody wants it as bad as me lol. Ask my family. This will be a long week with grumpy me

So Roethlisberger is why they allowed all those rushing yards and the blocked FG?

Tomlin sucks. Plain and simple.

The Steelers are now 0-2 against Mike Glennon under Tomlin. We can add that distinction to making Tim Tebow look like Joe Montana and whatnot.

Both of those coaches seem to be better adjustment coaches. If you are focusing in on Ben when the whole team outside of Antonio played like ****. You are looking at things through narrow glasses. Especially with playing down to teams yearly is becoming the norm. Not a anomaly. Ben didn't get the opportunity to win in overtime. The run D saw to that. A team out of sync the whole game saw to that.And yes INCLUDING Ben.

And Tomlin did?? He allowed the block punt?? He allowed the rushings yds..what number does mike wear?
 
What the hell does the spread have to do with football games..cmon the spread
Umm if a bad team is playing at a good team the spread will be pretty big. No one knows if Houston is good or bad. They were at NE with a rookie QB though.
Ben led us down the field for the tying score as well

Yes the whole team looked like ****. Exactly. But you cant say we have all this talent and absolve them when they dont play well. They have to play better. I can see if they were playing great and a coaches decision coat them.. oline sucks ben sucks Bell sucks all three games. Today the tackling sucked. But there have been plays there to be made. The coaches have put them in position to make them.
