Tomlin responsible for QB selections is an interesting one I'll give you that

It was reported that he had a major role in scouting Pickett.

Best thing Steelers could do is trade Tomlin like the Saints did with Peyton. Tomlin is a good coach that can beat enough scrub teams to get a winning record, but once they make the playoffs the talent gap is too great.

 

Reset, get a rookie QB and a young head coach and take your lumps in the regular season so hopefully you can start winning in the post season again.

 

I believe Tomlins coaching record is like the eerily the same as Mike McCarthy. Both have 1 sb. Both decent regular season records and both terrible postseason coaches. But McCarthy seen as a terrible coach and Tomlin seen as good. I wouldn't want either for the Bills.

Henry's last 4 games have been monstrous.

 

He's on a mission.

Yeah I heard that, said himself and the scouts saw him play a lot given Panthers play in the same field

If we beat Denver, who do we play next?

I can’t remember The ravens ever getting a holding penalty. Lamar constantly has 6 or 7 second plays, guys holding like crazy…never once do you see it called. The league is obsessed with making you think the ravens and Lamar are the greatest show on turf. You can’t even say a bad thing about Lamar. It’s like nothing else I have ever seen. He is completely immune to criticism, it’s imperative to them that we think he’s the best. It’s sickening 

Unfortunately we can look it up and the Ravens are tied for 4th in the league with 24 offensive holding penalties this season. They were 2nd in overall penalty yardage this season.

 

I agree that they pretty much let them go today though.

Baltimore.

Pretty good game

Steelers just don't have quite enough

 

Ravens are for real

Its not just that they just don’t have enough, they just weren’t very good.  Lost their last 5 by an average of 16 points a game.

Belichick struggled post Brady for the same reason.

Yeah, given they are heralded for their defense it’s been quite a let down this 5 game skid they’ve been on to end the year. 
 

It has to be said though that during these last 5 games are the better/best teams they have played in their season.

Any mention that their last 5 were Eagles/Bengals/Chiefs/Ravens x2 lol

Are you really making the argument that the Steelers are still a good team when they got blown out in by against other playoff teams?

 

Be honest with this question.  If the Bills lost by 16 points game average against those 5 teams, would you state the Bills are good?

Stop 

 

I never said the Steelers were a good team.

They gave up 520 yards rushing in their last two against the Ravens.

Yes. And like I said, their last 5 has been against the better teams on their schedule. 
 

I wasn’t implying they were good in any way shape or form. Was agreeing that the team, especially their defense, is a concern during that period.

They're not a bad team. That's the dumb take I referenced

 

They're a flawed team. They're getting steamrolled by a full strength Chiefs team and lost to a very strong Eagles team last week. Bad team is bad take

They have lost their last 3 all by double digits while averaging 13 points per game.  Yeah, that’s not a bad team lol, they are a pretty good flawed team.

Correct

When I called the Steelers bad, you told me it was a bad take.  Well, after their 5th straight loss, it seems to be a correct statement.

 

What did you mean by correct then?

You also said the Chiefs would play their starters against the Broncos because it was a division game week 18….even after they clinched home field.  Then you denied saying it lol.

[GoBills808]

😂😂you spent all that time trying to find where I called them a good team and still couldn't

My band had a gig, but there was an 85-inch TV at the bar facing the band. What I saw didn't look good for Pittsburgh. One thing that made me laugh, is when Pickens had his helmet off, and there was a shot of the back of his head, he looked like Homer Simpson.
