FireChans Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) Man oh man, this guy is just so elite. He really had his guys ready to play today. They kept it pretty close in the first Q and came out ready to fight. Just another incredible coaching product by Tomlin today. He saw what other “better than McDermott” coaches like Mike McCarthy cooked up yesterday and what Mike McDaniel cooked up the last two weeks and wanted a piece for himself. All these elite coaches, just being elite and superior to our own McDummy week after week. Good luck to Mike Tomlin on his elusive hunt for his second playoff win since 2016. If only we could be so lucky to have such a coach. SUPER SERIOUS EDIT: I crunched the numbers and it’s actually FIRST playoff win since 2016. Man, we gotta get THAT guy.

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 For a team that carries a reputation for being about toughness and discipline they've had a weird number of examples of players lollygagging this season, most recently Minkah on Josh's long rushing TD today.

Success Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Tomlin deserves credit, imo. This team, with a 3rd string QB, really had no business even getting near the playoffs. And they kept it pretty tight today after going down by 3 TD's, without their best player. 11 11 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan130 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Tomlin is a great coach. That roster is average at best. How he got to 10 wins in the toughest division in football is a borderline miracle lol 8 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 He may respond when he’s finished polishing his Superbowl ring. I’ll support McDermott’s “stay humble” approach until we’re champs. 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoSaint Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Meh. We have perhaps the best player in the nfl at perhaps the most important position in all of sports. Tomlin blew the end of the first half, but his team did a lot for having such a large talent deficit even before taking their best player in watt away 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red King Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 They were about to go down 24-0, on the road in the playoffs, shortly before halftime in a game they had to kickoff to start the second half. They could have given up. Instead, they kept fighting and managed to keep the game close enough to keep us sweating. Miami gave up. Dallas gave up. Pitt certainly did not. 7 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben missed all of 2019 and was 38 and 39 in 2020 and 2021 and a shell of himself. So you want to review the 2016-2020? He lost to Tom Brady in a AFC Championship game. I don't know what your point is here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
