The fake punt just made zero sense when you consider his D showed that they could stop us. I’d get the move if our offense was in god mode and you didn’t want to give us the ball back. I’m punting there and making our OL hold up against your DL for a long drive. It was a terrible decision

Both Harrison and Dungy were pretty critical of the fake punt decision.

Harrison went on to say that the Steelers shouldn’t even think about firing Tomlin because he’s a great coach lol.

He should be blasted worse than Kirby Shart was for his stupidity - this is professional football. Won't be.

I dont know but with the offensive talent theyve had on that team I would expect more if I was a fan. I know a bunch of Steeler fans that think there's a coaching problem.

Harrison, Dungy, and Sanders CAN criticize him.




All BS aside, I like Tomlin.

I didn't think it was a bad call. He knew the saints were gonna score so he was hoping to convert and end the game, and if he didn't convert, then he would have the ball last and have a chance to win or tie.. Which he did

Then just go for it with your offense. Our DBs had struggled to pass off crossing receivers all game.

Did he? They were doing a pretty solid job of containing us the last few drives

The front office tucked up the Bell situation. If they have him, they win the Super Bowl.

Well...the fake punt call damn near worked.

He rolled the dice...it didn't work out.

Steelers should have tied via FG anyway...but fumble prevented that...that ain't Tomlin's fault.

Boswell is no lock to make a kick from really any distance this season, so big assumption to say he would have tied it
