If more of Heyward’s teammates did, maybe they’d be getting ready to play in the Super Bowl right now. Regardless of what Heyward says about the team’s perceived (or actual) lack of discipline, there were indeed problems with discipline this year — and some of them fall on the shoulders of the coaching staff. For example, Tomlin created the distraction arising from his stunning willingness to look past multiple opponents in talking about two future games (one that happened, one that didn’t) against the Patriots. Also, the distractions that came from multiple failures of situational football (against the Patriots and Jaguars) trace ultimately to Tomlin. Nothing any Steelers player says changes the perception that the Steelers failed to accomplish what they could have. Tomlin himself said the Steelers “should win it all.” Although offensive coordinator Todd Haley became the scapegoat, Tomlin is moving closer to being on notice. While the hot seat may still be years away, Tomlin has several areas in which he needs to improve if he wants to end the talk regarding the team’s, or his own, lack of discipline.

When you’re right, you’re right. The Steelers are good and have been good for years… but it seems like they have under achieved to a certain extent. The NFL is so competitive and they’re forced to live under a 24/7 microscope, but I think that many in the Steelers organization will look back years from now and realize that they squandered some opportunities. As the famous one said (and I’m paraphrasing) – to win we need to keep from losing. It’s OK when you lose because the other team beat you and you played well. It’s disheartening to realize that you contributed more to your teams loss than your opponent did. The Steelers success recently seems in spite of themselves. They play their opponent and they play themselves too. 191 7 i Rate This 8. grant35 says: January 26, 2018 at 12:51 pm Bottom line is Tomlin is a good coach – it’s unfair to compare him to Belichick.

Discarding an underperforming loudmouth like Mike Mitchell is a good start. 93 103 i Rate This 9. pittspuke7 says: January 26, 2018 at 12:56 pm Haha I still smile thinking about tebow destroying them in the playoffs.

We’ll find out here pretty soon.” – GS Jimmy’s response: “They are definitely not papier-mâché!” – JJ Just because the Patriots have a dynasty doesn’t mean that everything has to be done the Belichick way. Plenty of coaches out there that win with their own style who aren’t afraid to speak their thoughts. 36 81 i Rate This 14. fartweasel says: January 26, 2018 at 1:18 pm Tomlin has an air of arrogance.

But Johnson won two Super Bowls and his team won a third the year he left. The dynasty of the ’90s, period. He took a 1-15 team and built it into a multi-SB winner in 3 years, largely drafting and signing from scratch. One of only 6 coaches to ever coach back-to-back SB winners. And that was after he had similar success at the college head-coaching level. Tomlin’s Steelers won one SB the year after he joined the team (with most of his predecessor’s coaching staff in place) and they’ve won squat since, over the last 9 years, with one of the best QBs in the league. This team has had enough talent to win it all every year. They keep running into the same wall of indiscipline, and everyone outside of Pittsburgh – or maybe even everyone outside of the team’s building – can see it clearly. 93 4 i Rate This 23. pastabelly says: January 26, 2018 at 1:42 pm baronvonheil says: January 26, 2018 at 1:33 pm This is an absurd narrative.

Obviously no one knows what will happen in free agency and the draft. However, the AFC could look a whole lot different next year. The NE – Pitt era of AFC predominance will be challenged. The Patriots are losing both coordinators and have 17 free agents. The Steelers are going to have a hard time getting back to this seasons status. That leaves the upstart Jaguars, Titans, Bills and even Houston and Indy with Watson and Luck returning knocking at the door. . 20 12 i Rate This 34. grant35 says: January 26, 2018 at 2:19 pm tylawspick6 says: January 26, 2018 at 1:53 pm tomlin and colbert’s whole schtick is tied to hubris hence, their problem and the dumb rooneys’ arrogancs in thinking they never need to fire someone as they scapegoat others ___________________________________ If winning 6 super bowls, playing in 8, & having 3 of the winningest coaches in NFL history over 50 yrs, is “dumb”, I’m sure about 28 other franchises would love THAT kind of “dumb” ownership. 27 22 i Rate This 35. Deb says: January 26, 2018 at 2:22 pm Haley has been scapegoaedt? The OC calls the offensive plays. Haley prohibited Roethlisberger from calling an audible in any 4th-and-short situation. So Haley called the abysmal fourth-down plays in the Jags game and was responsible for the Steelers’ abysmal red-zone performance all season. When an offense has as many weapons as Pittsburgh’s and consistently fails to produce more than just enough, that’s the fault of the offensive coordinator. If anyone is being scapegoated, it’s Tomlin. He’s never had a losing season, has the second-highest number of wins in 11 seasons in NFL history, and just led his team to the third best record in Steelers history. Yet people keep calling for his head. Should he stop obsessing over the Patriots? Yes. We all make mistakes, and that–along with the onside kick in the Jags game–was a big one. But it’s a mistake easily rectified. This isn’t San Diego and Rooney isn’t likely to fire a coach of this caliber.

Tomlin cannot manage a clock, cannot made in game adjustments, consistently has his team underprepared to defeat sub .500 teams, let’s the team Divas run roughshod all over the locker room, won’t control their social media distractions and himself often looks past the opponent of the week, the James Harrison fiasco, trying to trip an opposing player on the sidelines for which he was fined $100K, on and on and on. Watch him on the sidelines sporting that “Deer in the headlights” look! Case in point, when they had NO plan for the final play of the Pats game! This has been going on for years, but it’s good to see that Florio and others in sports media are FINALLY seeing what so many fans have known for so long.

But, not everyone wants to be like the Hoodie, and unlike the majority of the commenters on here, a lot don’t want to cheer for him. And not every player wants to be in his regimented, cold dreary system where players are treated like interchangeable/ disposable parts. Few players can fit into that kind of draconian, impersonal environment. Can anyone see Ben sitting in one of their meetings and being ripped apart by Belichick in front of his teammates? I bet he’d give him the finger and walk out. Only Brady can take that kind of constant abuse… it’s his fuel. It’s a unique relationship. Tomlin treats his players like men – even if they let him down and act childish. He knows how to deal with them, and has never lost the respect of his players. Other than the Bryant outburst, the disciplining occurs behind the scenes, as it should be. Tomlin isn’t perfect, but he is one heck of a coach. This feeding frenzy to fire Tomlin is absurd, and I have to question the motives behind it.

The Steelers decided they needed to protect Ben from Ben. They hired a guy who would come in and make the changes needed no matter the feathers he ruffled. They hired a guy who could do that and call plays. He has a talent. No question. Nothing but respect. At the same time, this guy is a bit looney tunes. Sooner or later he wears thin.
