This team sucks!

Postby rlbess » Sun Nov 22, 2009 5:21 pm

I don't care what you say, this team sucks. When they win it is in spite of Ben not because of him. The D works it's ass of, and the Special Teams and O just muck it up every single week. Honestly the ffffing Chiefs. You know you are sorry when you lose to them, but I saw it coming in the third. You could see that this team just has no heart. And if you try to say...well it's just one game, and they can still make it you can just kiss my big white ass. This team is going nowhere, and I hope Ben is concussed, the big idiot.

D gave up a lot of big plays this week. They deserve some blame too.

Your right they did, that 78 yard 2 play drive was awful, and they could not shut them down when called upon. I guess I am just venting for three quarters of piss poor football. I have been a fan since the 70's and honestly this team brings back memories of Kordell, or Bubby for that matter, just painful to watch.

Does the absence of one player make all this much difference? I don't think so, but allow me to tell you what does make a difference----the failure of the head coach to properly motivate his team. The consistently foul ST play is secondary when one considers that the underperforming Steelers leads back to their head coach. Mike Tomlin needs to take a hard look at himself and then, his staff. Those who read the PG article about how this team tackles well knows what utter excrement it was by watching the last two games; if they had tackled even a little better than they did then there would be two wins instead of two potentially devastating losses. The Super Bowl Slather seems to permeate this team. This is NOT a playoff-caliber team by anyone's standards, much less a Steeler fan's admittedly lofty standards. There needs to be a different OL coach, ST coach, and OC for sure, but the head guy needs to start swinging the ax handle and getting the attention of his egg-laying squad. The first shot needs to be placed between his own eyes for allowing his team to rot and not demanding their best on each and every play. They couldn't beat the Browns right now.

Blaming Ben???????????? I thought the defense sucked elephant balls when it mattered most, proving once again that they are shit with Troy P. The ST coach needs to be fired immediately, along with Arians! A 3rd and 2 sweep to the slowest RB on the team, what an asshole.

Oh come on. We'd still beat the Browns. By about 2 points, but we would.

Is this evidence that Tomlin has lost the team like he did in Minnesota?

They were not ready to play yesterday and that falls on the coach. We would have blasted Cowher if he was the coach yesterday.

I still cannot believe that 3rd and 2 call. We pass all game when we should run and when we should pass we run

I hope this was sarcasm.

Because I cannot believe that someone would repeat the bullshit of one of the most moronic posters ever to grace the message boards of stillers.com.

No it wasn't sarcasm. It was a legitimate question. I wasn't aware that someone else had made that observation. You seem to be unduly sensitive to criticism of your boy Tomlin. Is that correct?

No- I believe that Mike Tomlin deserves much criticism for what's been happening. I believe this is the sternest test he's faced since becoming HC, and so far, I don't think he's faring very well.

But it is utter bullshit that he "lost his players" in Minnesota. That was a bullshit story dreamed up by Steelers4Tim because he had a hard-on for Russ Grimm and was pissed when Tomlin was hired.

I don't know anything about Steelers4Tim. I could have sworn that I read the story in some news article somewhere.

Let's hope I'm wrong. Over the past few seasons I would have sworn that Lewis "lost" the Bengals. But boy look at them now.

Right now the Steelers don't resemble an organization in which the head coach is in control. My gut hunch is that's somehow due to Rooney meddling.

I think that's a huge assumption for you to make.

"I think that's a huge assumption for you to make."

Maybe not so huge. I saw it happen to Noll when the Rooneys forced him to retain Joe Walton as his offensive coordinator. That established a precedence.

No he's not. The 3 QBs that scare defensive co-ordinaters the most right now are P. Manning, Brady & Brees.
