Tomlin's 15th loss since 2009 to Teams With a Combined .219 Winning Percentage

A trend that dates back to 2009.

It is coaching, complete different rosters, same results

It is simply the inability to make half time adjustments.

Once the suck started it had a snowball effect. And nothing was done to counteract it. Zero zilch.
 
Also to add after further review

that Martavis pass was a drop on his part, not a overthrow -Martavis fault

Shazier had six missed tackles, Dupree and Williams had two apiece. Approximately 15 missed tackles overall, just wow. How many could have been avoided with coaching half time adjustments? - Coaching fault -Tommy Tom

The punter didn't know the rule about a ball not being able to be fumbled forward, the coaches should know that rule, and it should have been taught to every player. So ****** special teams led to 10 points for them, and 3 points taken off the board for us. That is easily the biggest fail of the game. -Coaching fault -ST coach

I haven't seen it yet..they didnt replay it during the game. In my initial look it look slightly overthrown. I could be wrong and will have no problem saying so..

Seriously please tell me what is the coaching adjustmet is for missed tackles..in your own words what is it? Players are in position but misses the tackle what schematic are you drawing up that will fix the issue at halftime. Besides saying make the ******* tackle.

So you are saying its a coaching fail by Tomlin not Smith but Tomlin. That in the heat of the moment our Aussie kicker didnt know the bears couldnt score even if they recovered the ball. When it took the refs 10 minutes to figure it out.

You show them how they are not controlling their gaps. And I did blame the ST coach too for the ST ****** play.

Controlling their gaps. There were numerous missed tackles that had nothing to do with gap control. Players right there to stop the play short.

Bullshit they weren't in position to make the plays, Over running plays. Shazier was the main guilty party there. Stay in your lanes and don't lose contain.

Bullshit my *** there was numerous missed tackles in the backfield at the line of scrimmage a couple of yds down field where plays could have been minimized

if coaching adjustments were made yes, they can be minimized.


They weren't adjustments made, everyone outside of coach lovers seem to know that.

Because there is no adjustment for missed tackles except make the ******* tackle

so why do players review gametape? to see what adjustments need to be made.

Missed tackles can result from over pursuing, and not being in your gap.

The fact that you don't know this is alarming.
 
This will continue to be an issue. The big problem is that we play a division rival next week that fits the criteria of Tomlin coached teams loosing to.

The fact is that can be the issue. Also the fact is you can be where you are supposed to be and still miss the tackle. And that was the case alot yesterday.

I am sure it was a mixed bag of everything. But you are fooling yourself to think no coach could have made the necessary adjustments.

MAny of things you can do. Talk to them, calm them. Adjust if they are out of position. Bring in Deebo to help in run support. Rotate other players in.

All adjustments that could have been made that weren't.

And you dont know if any of things werent done sitting on your couch.. as a matter of fact the defense gave up 100 yds plus in the first half then 34 yds until the dam broke again. So maybe there were or maybe there wasnt and the players played a little better. I dont know and neither do you

Yes I do no players were rotated in. Also the trend shows no significant process has been made. As the team hasn't played well for three games, that shows adjustments are needed.

Uh huh yeah fall back to your usual bullshit
 
Good uneducated response. For all those missed tackles, backup players couldn't be rotated in? As you still believe your usual coach deflecting bullshit. Hi

So point them out in what game have you seen a coach take his star players and starters out.
 
Or maybe playing guys in preseason

Then if someone gets hurt we are having a whole differnt discussion and the coaches are idiots for different reasons


Ryan Shazier led the Steelers with 11 tackles and also six missed tackles. Vince Williams and Bud Dupree were second in missed tackles with two apiece. Those guys are the core tacklers up front, but they are far from sure in their approach. Does that have to do with playing so little in the preseason? It seems to be a popular card in the blame game today.
* Not for me, though. I'll stick with a coach trying to get through August without injuries. I just can't blame the preseason approach here. The Steelers hit plenty in camp.

And plenty of coaches rotate players. Often Steelers often rotate Harrison in or were until recently.

Why does this have to happen after every loss.
I get people wanting to vent their frustrations, especially after losing to a team everyone under the sun thought we should win handily.
But I don't understand the whole, "We lost because or Tomlin" or "We lost because of Ben" or "We lost because of playcalling" or "We lost because of lack of focus" etc.
The TEAM lost yesterday. All 53 players, the practice squad, the entire coaching staff, the trainers, EVERYONE that helps prepare for and is there on the sideline on Sunday. They all lost.
And they ALL lost because they ALL did not do their job enough to win. Period.
There's never going to be one reason we lost.
The Steelers lost on multiple fronts, not a singular one.
 
Lol this guy thinks substitutions aren't made based on poor play. Unfucking believable SMH.
