This team was just begging for its carelessness with the ball to cost them a game

Jacksonville - Struggled to win against a bad team...why? Especially after being humiliated last year twice...no desire to beat down? No motivation?
Denver - Loss against an ok defense and bad offense..Bush league play from HOF QB and rest of the team followed
LA Chargers - Loss, Tomlin will not have this team prepared or motivated to win...examples: Last two games
Oakland - Loss or Tie, Tomlin special, a very bad team he can't coach against
Patriots - Loss, Tomlin and Ben scared of this team...every year!
Saints - Loss, well coached and their HOF QB is playing like he should...doesn't force childish, bush league throws into the end zone for DL to INT
Cincy - Loss, Marvin Lewis impresses his owner with win over the Steelers, him and Tomlin safe for another year of bad coaching

7-9
All the sheep rejoice and say...We'll get'em next year! Pretty good job Mikey

Blocked FG -3 points
Fumble at the goal - 7 points
Missing a wide open Washington - 7 points
Conner fumble - likely 3 or 7
Ben INT at the goal - 7 points.

That's at least 24 points off the board and a possible 27-31 points if you count the points missed after the conner fumble.

Game should have been a blowout.

Tomlin doesn't understand that math

You typed all that bullshit when a simple Tomlin, Ben, and the Steelers suck. Do you just like to hear yourself talk?

at 7-3-1, you are boldly predicting HCMT's first losing season and a six game losing streak to end the season. Are we aloud to take sucker bets on the board? Asking for a friend.

Missing Washington?? Dude dove for the ball when he could have caught it and kept running. That was so embarrassing to watch.
 
That pass was a little long. He should have run through it to have a chance, but that wasn't on the mark either. That one play involving that kid had little to do with the outcome of this game.
 
I agree, I don't think a rookie or 4th WR on the team deserves his own bashing thread. He needs time to develop. Some were catchable, some throws were a bit off to him today.

Sorry...8-8, they just might beat Oakland or Cincy
Another great "winning" season under Tomlin

He resembles nothing more than below average WR. I haven't seen a single sign of him showing potential like Martavis, Juju, Wheaton, hell even Sammie Coates.

He looks very similar to Limas Sweed though.

are you hoping they tank so you can say, "I told you so"? If they win both of those games, they are 9-6-1 and more than likely win the ACFN again. Is that not good enough? They will make it to the PO where they could be just as dangerous as any team there. I do expect them to pull out the SD or NE game. They do have the tools to win those games and give NO fits, but they have to play smart, mistake-free football. They did it against CAR, BAL, CIN, ATL and CLE. This game, even though was a gut wrenching loss, it's not the end of the season. It's an eye opener. Back to basics. Step back from the edge of the bridge and breathe.

we'll see, give him an off-season with Ju Ju and/or AB and see how he progresses before we call him the B-word.

I think tape misspoke...I believe he was referring to the overthrow meant for JuJu (not Washington) on the first play of the third quarter.

But you're right -- dude (Washington) didn't need to leave his feet to catch that ball.

True 100%, but a championship caliber team would not have had all these mistakes at this point in the season.

Its "allowed", and make sure your "friend" knows the correct spelling when using the word that way, too, squeaky.

^^ This, I don't get all the "give him time" ****. Catch the ******* ball, JuJu seems to have figured it out as a rookie, and is only getting better in year two, Washington seems to get almost zero separation and is constantly mistiming his move to the ball.

James Conner

Love the kid's heart, but he has cost us big with lack of concentration. 2 game-changing fumbles so far this and one dropped game-winning pass that luckily we were able to rebound from last week. These aren't mistakes caused by devastating hits... Hope to see vast improvement next week and beyond.

This is how I look at this team, has a lot to do with my negativity towards this team, and they consistently prove me right every year.

When they stop looking like a clown show every 3 or 4 games maybe my attitude would change but hey, we are 10 years into this crap with Tomlin's teams and I am still waiting.
