Don't want to see Najee Harris anytime soon. He is a load who could send much of the defense to the hospital.

I know the pass was for Davante but I guess Cobb didn't. Hard for me to blame him.

Luckily Cobb did enough to erase that play and it didn’t affect the outcome. We buy ourselves another week to get healthy.

By the time we play the Steelers again he'll be washed up. Tomlin is known for running his backs right into the ground. Steelers RBs have short careers. He'll be on the decline by his fourth season.

Nice defense by Cobb on the pass to Adams. If Alexander misses time maybe we can put Cobb in at corner instead of King.
Someone must have been at the wrong depth. I find it hard to believe that a designed play would have two receivers that close together.

It looked like both veteran receivers made the same sight adjustment that Rodgers did. Unfortunately, the we’re on the same side of the formation and it got weird.

Since it didn’t hurt us in the end, I can laugh at the absurdity of how it played out.

I seriously doubt Tomlin will be around after this season.

Most NFL RB's aren't on top more than 4 years. The handful that do are the ones in discussion for Canton.

Why? I haven't seen his coaching slip. The GM was unwilling to push out their beloved veteran QB and has not put a good OL together. That doesn't appear to be Tomlin's fault.

That said, I am an unabashed Tomlin fan. I watched him as the defensive coordinator in 2006 for Minnesota. Thank goodness the Vikings were too dumb to keep him over Brad Childress.

Tomlin isn't going anywhere. Their team isn't great, they are old and done at the most important position on the field. They fought hard to the end. He's a good coach

Too many route designs with receivers in the same area this year. This should almost never happen and needs to be addressed.

The Steelers organization is very loyal to its coaches. While it’s possible they elect to move on from Tomlin, It would not surprise me at all if they stick with him.

It's not so much a function of time as it is of carries. Most RBs start to decline around 1000 carries or so. Tomlin tends to use those up very quickly. It's why most teams to a RB "by committee" thing anymore.

If they fire Tomlin, the pack should scoop him up as DC immediately, but I know he will be a HC elsewhere within days of being relieved.

There is a lot of stability in the Steelers organization. They are very comfortable with who they are and always ready to play you tough. I respect that.

I would love to have Tomlin as our coach if we didn't have MLF. He's right behind Reid, Payton, Belichick, MLF in my rankings
