I fully believe that Tomlin will take the Steelers from squashing grapes this past season to making wine next season! Bottoms up! |

Harbaugh's decision to bench Smith for Kap may go down as one of the gutsiest moves by a coach in recent NFL history.

It was a gutsy move mainly because Smith was 6-2-1 at the time, and completing over 70% of his passes. I think Greg Roman deserves some credit for the 49ers QBs success he is the guy who calls the plays. And let's not forget the additions of Crabtree, A Davis, Iupati, and Manningham. I don't like the Harbaughs they are obnoxious but they have done good jobs as coaches. Tomlin is still better. I don't think I could take another Harbaugh bowl...

People are comparing Kaepernick to Newton and that comparison is insulting and ridiculous. Kaep better compares to a more glorified Tebow with a slightly more accurate deep ball, but very similar throwing motion. Bottom line, he implemented a system that suits his QBs talent level and I applaud him for that, but he's not the reason they're doing well. To suggest that he was the big piece that fit it all together is laughable. If Norv Turner was down in San Fran, they'd be competing for a title too. He's made questionable coaching decisions but because a) it's the 49ers and b) they have a decent record, he's being taken off the hook for it. Why is no one asking why they're losing to weaker teams and their offense is ridiculously inconsistent? Why is no one asking why they're such a bad team on the road and consistently struggle against top-end quarterbacks? |

Yeah I agree that A Smith basically went from an average qb on a bad team to an average qb on a good team. I don't think there is anything wrong with SF's "game manager" offense- it is simple, effective and scores points.... most of the time.
People probably wouldn't be "jealous" of J. Harbaugh after his Niners lost 26-3 to the NYG or 42-13 to SEA. Or how about when the Ravens got stomped by the Texans 43-13? |

Douche Harbaugh: four seasons, zero SuperBowl appearances... yeah!!! Last six AFC North champs: Steelers, Steelers, Bengals, Steelers, Ravens, Ravens. Woulda, coulda, shoulda SuperBowl appearances: Steelers should have won it last year... and the year before that... Tomlin's additions: Wallace, AB, Pouncey, DD, Adams, Gilbert, Mendy, Timmons, Woodley, Lewis, Allen, Heyward, Hood... that's a lot. Again... uh... what? |

Cam Newton will never make it to the big game. When you make it to the NFC Championship game, nobody cares about your regular season struggles against weaker teams or top QB'S.

Jim benching a good quarterback to start a back up over him takes balls and it takes a move from a head coach that says what he means, and means what he says. Tomlin don't have what it takes to make great decisions. That's why year after year he fucks up routine in game decisions, and we see our younger, healthier 3rd year players riding the pine in place of some geriatric player who is well past their prime. The whole Aaron Smith handling was a joke 3 years of this guy's broken on the sidelines then we release a draft.pick to keep this guy part of the 53 man roster instead of IR him so we can actually use the spot for a player with a pulse. Big Bens injured ankle in San Fran shows how little control Tomlin has over the team. Tomlins a spineless coach with a lot of potential. He just needs to go with his gut and make HIS own decisions and catch up on situational football 101. I'm not saying to fire him, cause he is young and still learning a lot about the HC position. But what worries me about Tomlin is that I see the same mistakes over and over again, season after season. Lack of discipline on offense is the major flaw we have. I think we gave more games away under Tomlin than we have legitimately lost. Tomlin relies too much on his coordinators to run the ship, he also relies too much on Big Ben to win games. Tomlin must develop a disciplined o line and get back to being an effective run team again. Chumps who believe it's a passing league now are being fooled. Come playoff time it's all about running and defense. Tomlin puts the game in a player who misses 4 weeks out of the season, or is playing at 60% for 6 weeks out of the season. It doesn't take me 6 seasons to notice this, and it shouldn't take Tomlin 6 years either. This team needs to get back to its roots, it needs to get back to winning games, and not betting against Steelers when we are playing against 1-14 teams cause I know that I'll win the bet. You trying to honestly tell me that Tomlin is better than the Harbaughs when we consistently lose to the afc West? The team is on a downward spiral under Mike Tomlin and lack of discipline on offense, physicality on offense, lack of a running game, and TERRIBLE in game coaching decisions and situational football. IF YOU LEARNED FROM YOUR MISTAKES TOMLIN, WE WOULD HAVE WON 3 MORE GAMES THIS SEASON, AND PROBABLY EVERY SEASON. GET THESE YOUNG MEN DISCIPLINED! As far as your woulda coulda shoulda rant... Look who's back in the afccg, and the nfccg again. And look who didn't even make it to the playoffs this season. Any coach who STRUGGLES to win, and more often than not, CONSISTENTLY LOSES against the raiders, chiefs, and every other perennial two win team. Is NOT a good coach.... Just saying bro..... Tomlin coulda, shoulda, BUT wouldn'ta gotten our teams prepared to squash shit teams as mentioned, but prefers to fly back east with a notch in the L column... Tomlins a great coach..... Ha ha maybe in 15 years he be a legit GOOD-GREAT coach. as of now, he's just average with a good support group around him making him look better than he is.
