Tomlin's core philosophy is killing this team... - Page 2

Yah, style points hurt guys like Jerry Rice and Emmitt Smith. These cliche's and movie lines used in huddles and all the regurgitated piles of crap mean NOTHING in between the lines. I would rather have a player who wants to get 15 catches for 200 yards then some dolt who is trying to play all cliche on everyone. Great stats mean TD's and first downs. Wake up.

Good teams execute with precision. They aim for perfection. Not talking about stats. Under Tomlin, Steelers are making a habit of playing some ugly ball. They are eking by for now, but sooner or later, these habits will cost them. In fact, it already has.

I'll critique Tomlin if we lose the playoffs, but not now. I have faith in him. I don't think all the blame can be put on Tomlin though, alot of our key players are injured.

This is the biggest critique of Tomlin's coaching, sheesh. There are some issues bigger than this non-factor.

Yeah, Tomlin's philosophy has him "eking" his way to 13th winningest coach of all time. It's got to stop.

Tomlin's Ws and Ls speak for themselves, but I do think some of these egos need to be a little embarrassed and called out - but as I think it was Ben? I dunno - said he will let you know in person/in private.

Did anyone else think things seemed a little somber during the post-game Ben interview? I don't know for sure - but he seemed pretty humble in spite of the win - which is a good thing IMO
