Tomlin supporters....

Oh it goes both ways. I am sick of race being an issue for either side in sports today. It has as much to do with being spoiled brats as anything. We are lucky to have a team that competes year in and year out. We have been and remain one of the best most consistently competitive teams in the league but we can’t and won’t win them all in a league of 32 teams unless we are willing to cheat like the Pat***s. I would rather lose with honor than forever be labeled cheaters even if this team rips my heart out sometimes.

I cant think of one guy who criticizes Ben who can be labled a racist i call bull ****
 
This loss is square on the defense. Absolutely awful against a terrible offense.

Cowher had more ****** seasons than Tomlin has and didn't take 1/10th of the hate and animosity Tomlin gets. Odd.

There were plenty of times people called for Cowhers head after those AFC Championship losses. There just wasn’t as much presence on the internet at that time. He got reamed for “turtle ball” and “Marty ball”.

Yeah but those weren't hateful, personal attacks. These routinely are. Those were football criticisms. These are usually venomous hatred.

But not for the color of his skin.
 
Ryan Shazier absence was huge. His ability to read plays and then use his speed to close was incredible and missed. Fort read that screen but just couldn't make the tackle..that was a huge play
 
I wouldn't want Cowher back, at any price. There are plenty of bright young coaching minds to try out. Stop looking back.

How about the Jag's DC?

The onside kick decision was terrible..i dont care what no one says it was dumb. Kick the ******* ball. If you cant force a punt you dont deserve to win. And not QB sneaking twice on 4 and a half a yard. I dont want to talk football see football. **** football..

Welcome to the light side and congrats for being honest.
 
Raciest what? Tomlin continues to prove he gets outcoached by what is perceived lesser talented teams. His decision making of throwing the red flag isn't even in question it so bad. Today onside kick, lets all shake our head at once. If he is mad at a player no way he plays yet one on the field makes bad or no plays will never try anyone else. Tomlin does look nice on side lines and is loved by the media. We he looks nice until he has that dear and the head light look. Has nothing todo with race which seems thrown around when all else fails.

Yet once he got Ben he was 5-1 in the playoffs in only 3 years. Tomlin is 8-7 in 11 years, huge advantage Cowher.

Plus I don't think I ever saw a Steeler team come out so flat for a playoff game as they did today.

Yep. And how many of these games playoff games were the Steelers favorite under Tomlin that they lost? Too many.
 
Over the last 3 years we have beaten backups McCarron and Matt Moore in the playoffs and a mediocre Alex Smith. We have lost to a broken down Manning, Brady and Blake Bortles. We do less with more than anyone under Tomlin.

Has zero to do with race. Usually, the Tomlin fans pivot and blame Ben if they can. Except Ben threw 5 TD's today and set a franchise playoff record for yardage.

Like I've been saying for years, I see zero sidelines coaching under Tomlin and picking Haley to run the offense underscores a severe lack of judgment.
 
The 14 points off turnovers were a factor, but the Steelers still allowed 28 points apart from the turnovers to what had been a struggling Jaguar offense.

I'm just getting tired of watching Tomlin defenses getting owned by suspect offenses. The Jaguars did not do **** against the Bills last week and probably will not do **** against the Patriots next week.
 
Ben admitted the 4th down calls weren’t him. On QB sneaks: “I’m for them. It’s over my head why we don’t.” Sorry. The guy is a future Hall of Famer with 2 rings. If he doesn’t have the power to call that on his own something is ******* wrong

I wouldn't mind firing the whole coaching staff.
 
The loss came down to four key things.
1. Ben and the game plan/ play calling in the first 1/3 was terrible. Haley go find your next job. You are ***.
2. They were thin in the middle. This was a combination of Hargrave not making the second year leap and the unfortunate injury to Shazier ( but all teams get injured). I think they should have moved AlouAlou past him. Spence was terrible.
3. Coaching decisions.
A. The game plan to start
B. A toss play on 4th and a yard
C. A pass on third and less than a yard. A punt was absolutely fine.
D. The worst was the short kick. You had plenty of time to think. Ridiculous
4. I will be 100% clear. Jax deserved to win. Never turned the ball over. Great team win. But lets see them get the 50/50 calls next week. There were 4 or 5. Lets see that next week.
 
I hate having a bad black coach I hate having a bad white coach, racist, nope.

So you didnt see Fords post?? You just listed all those instances and never mentioned the huge turnovers that led directly to 14 points.. i would of definitely kicked the ball off but i cant say we would of stopped them.. i would of definitely QB sneaked both times doesnt mean it would of worked.. we ****** ourselves as a team today.. DLine was terrible. No pressure from them or the OLBs and the decisions from the sidelines was questionable too or just plain dumb. But those turnovers didnt help either
