Please fire Mike Tomlin.


I wanna see the Steeler's fandom burn when they go 4-12 next year.

I think he's managing the egos on that team masterfully. Remember how Martavis Bryant was a huge distraction earlier this season?

Big Ben, Bell, AB, Bryant, that's a lot of huge egos to keep happy and he's had them all pretty much pulling in the same direction. I don't think anyone could come in and do it better quite honestly.

I think the world of Chip Kelly and his coaching acumen but he failed miserably in the NFL in part because he couldn't perform that part of the job. same goes for Saban, though he had a little more success than Chip.

LSU was in the situation of who better are you going to get? the only realistic hire you can argue would have more than likely turned out better is jimbo.

who better can teh steelers go out and get right now?

Would be dumb IMO.

At least ride out the Ben, AB, and Bell trio. If he can’t win another Super Bowl with them, I could understand moving on.

I just don’t see how they replace him with anyone that will be an upgrade. It would immediately set the team back.

The Jags game was the worst loss in Tomlin’s career. No reason to overreact because of it.

Tomlin always seemed like he was just watching the game on the sideline.

I see Bruce Rauner is trying his hardest to run the Steelers into the ground just like the state of Illinois

This would be clever if Illinois hadn't already been a dumpster fire.

I think the 3 or 4 games the Steelers don't show up per season to shite teams is worse.

To me Haley was the problem and they finally canned him.

Anyone who owned Jamal Charles in fantasy during the beginning of his run in KC knows how awful Todd Haley is.

It's just typical TD racism

People here use Yankee unironically. It's like traveling back in time to the late 1800s when you come to this site

Firing a coach with a .659 winning percentage? They sound like LSU fans who wanted to fire Les Miles.


Is there a failed Browns/Bengals/Ravens coach they can hire because he talks like a yinzer?
