    You ask this, but who is the Ri tard? Your team is in the Superbowl, for most fans they would be in a packers forum trash talking or maybe a Jets forum gloating...

    You my friend are in a browns forum, we were 5-11 the last two years..

    Im a yankee fan and I wouldnt want to go into an orioles forum, let alone a pirates one.. Wait do they have a pirates forum?

  • I'll be the first to admit that losing 5 games in a row for PGH sends a message to players and coaches. Tomlin has fired the offensive line coach and special teams coach but if another bad season happens I suspect Tomlin might be on his way out.

    Words from Art Rooney II

    1) Telling the coach you need to run the ball more consistently. Rooney said his coach has conveyed that to offensive coordinator Bruce Arians. "Mike has talked to Bruce about that." When the owner has to tell the coach how to coach that is not good.

    2) Rooney said he is satisfied with the job Tomlin has done over the past three years, although he thought the final three games of the 2009 season were crucial both to the coach and the organization after a troubling five-game losing streak. "It was a rough stretch, it was very disappointing," Rooney said of the losing streak. "It basically cost us a chance to defend the title. Read crucial both to the coach and the organization after a troubling five-game losing streak.

    3) "I think that was important for the organization and it was important for Mike to show everybody that he's the kind of coach who is not going to lose his team and [who will] keep them in the right direction all the way down to the end," said Rooney. "I think we learned something about Mike, and what we learned I think is positive for the future."

    too many I thinks. Tomlin will be gone if he does not make the playoffs next year.

    The Rooney's won't put up with losing. Tomlin better figure out how to win games like Cowher did or bye bye Mike.

    How the hell did I miss the gem? Tomlin is not on thin ice and WON'T be on thin ice and I would have said the same the day this mental sh.it was posted. The Rooney's don't bail on their coaches and those comments were more of a Bruce Arians comment than a Mike Tomlin comment.

    EDIT: Lol probably because this was posted LAST YEAR! why would someone bump this?

    Yeah, I don't know why some troll would bump a year old thread. Unlike some folks, I'll admit I greatly overestimated the demise of the Steelers. Your o-line coach deserves a huge bonus for overcoming the injuries, Mendenhall, Wallace & Hood have stepped it up.

    Concerns? Ben's tough, but not invincible- his propensity for taking shots may catch up with him someday.

  • I hear the theme from the Twilight Zone playing in the distance..............delete.

  • Is this for real??? Being head coach for the Pittsburgh Steelers has more job security than being a justice on the Supreme Court (what up Byron "Whizzer" White!)

    He'd have to REALLY screw up bad to get the boot. In four years I think he's doing a pretty damn good job of sticking around IMHO.

    Do the Pirates even have a team anymore? hahaha maybe they can find some little league kids this year and win more than 5 games

    Storied franchise that has been putrid for the last decade or longer. They do have a solid farm system but usually send off the top tier talent for more farm talent. I expect them to turn it around eventually but a few terrible owners have kept them from a rebound. Let's not forget the Indians. Man they've been on fire! lol.

    hey who has more World Series titles?

  • Are the Steelers more loaded with talent (compared to competitors) now or is the team better coached now? It didn't take long for Tomlin to surpass Cowher in Super Bowl appearances. (Am I right in thinking that Cowher had just one SB appearance? I know he won just one.)

    When did they win their last title? Storied franchise that won titles back when there were 28 teams or fewer. Two of those before the integration of black people into MLB. Sorry but those don't count. Sound familiar faggot?

    Bill Cowher................ the "great" winner.............

    1994 AFC Championship Game LOSS

    1995 Super Bowl LOSS

    1997 AFC Vivisional Game LOSS

    2001 AFC Championship Game LOSS

    2004 AFC Championship Game LOSS

    Tomlin is in the hot seat? Horse manure, I don't believe it.

    Cowher reached more Conference Championship Games in his 15 years than 22 NFL Franchises (including the Browns) have done in 40.

    During his tenure (1992-2006), the Steelers had the most wins and the best winning percentage in the league.

    Cowher won Division Titles AND Playoff Games with 5 different starting QBs - find another Head Coach who has accomplished that.

    Fact is - they got that far (the AFC Championship Game) and 2 Super Bowls and you're calling him a LOSER?

    What would that make the Browns during that time? They had 2 winning seasons (one of which was the "ever impressive 9-7") and 2 playoff appearances and 0 Division Titles. Cowher had 8 Division Championships and 10 Playoff Appearances.

    The reality is that you would have given anything for the kind of success that Cowher had - and you'd be lying to yourself if you say anything different.

  • @king-ghoolie-lives said:

    WIN LIKE COWHER DID? Ah how many freaking AFC championships did Cowher lose? He got publicly embarassed in the SB against Dallas.

    When did Tomlin ever get his ass handed to him like that?

    Publicly Embarrassed?

    The Steelers had more passing yards - 239 vs. 209

    The Steelers had more rushing yards - 103 vs. 56

    The reality is that after a slow start, the Steelers outplayed and outcoached the superior talented Cowboys, including a gutsy onside kick that was one of the best surprise calls in Super Bowl history and only 2 very bad Interceptions kept them from pulling off the upset.

    If you want to call that publickly embarrassed - what would you consider what the Buffalo Bills did against the Cowboys a few years earlier, or the Broncos vs. the 49ers, or the Chargers vs. the 49ers or the Patriots vs. the Bears?

    Those were all embarrassing blowouts, whereas the Steelers played one of the most underrated Super Bowls of all time and nearly won.

    The Browns have never even come close to what Cowher and the 1995 Steelers have done - unless you think of the 1957 NFL Championship where the Browns lost 59-14?

    Or how about the Browns first choke in a Conference Championship Game - 1968 vs. the Baltimore Colts where they lost 34-0.

    Doubtful you'd bring that up. You guys like to think that the Browns were unbeatable in the 1950s and 1960s when it simply was not true.

    We are running out of fingers for these rings. How cool!

    The funny thing is you aren't wearing any of them. Why? Because you have nothing to do with it. You aren't even the king of your trailer park and your mom is your sister.
