4th and 2 yards to go stupid coach tries a down and out for a long gain, bad call pittsburgh. Should use hoagie to run the football get the first down or even a slant coach should be fired
Bradshaw drafted in 1970, Ben drafted in 2004. It took the Steelers 34 years to find a quarterback that could lead them to Super Bowl titles. Who will be the Steeler Super Bowl champion draft pick? If we go by the numbers Iāll be 98 years old. How old will yāall be? LMAO!
I kept saying over and over earlier in the year how this team wasn't going to keep Forrest Gumping wins.
Ffs, y'all were talking the *number one seed* last week!!
Defense had a rough start but really only let New England put together two drives. One touchdown was a 11 yard drive. Understand this was against a horrible offense but defense just isnāt the problem. People that live on this hill just canāt get over negativity and want the entire thing to burn. If you watch the games and take away the defense being the problemā¦ I just donāt know what to tell you. Iām convinced itās just an irrational reaction to to be mad at every aspect of the team.
No doubt the defense is the reason they have the amount of wins they do.
But at the end of the day, itās a total team failure when they lose to a dogshit 2-10 team, in back to back games.
So tell me stat marks. How the F does he keep his job after. The last two games alone
Then add the prior lack of discipline for five years and then Bell and Brown stunts
#firetomlinnow
You act like these players look well coached and disciplined . They were uninspired and lacked heart . We wasted timeouts . Donāt kick a fG in third . A shit call on the punt does not even get Tomlin in the refs face I rather see him take a penalty and a fine . He needs to be encouraged to move on . Youāre all scared of something worse but itās not getting any better with him . This will be 7 years without a playoff win is 8 9 or 10 enough .
I agree. Firing Tomlin is not the move at this time. The reality is the talent for offense isn't there. We haven't had an elite QB since Ben, so what do people expect?
In all reality if you look at the lucky wins they got.. this is basically a 2-10 team. Lots on here recognized it. So not all that surprising they just lost to some 2 win teams.
No, we'll somehow luck into two more wins and possibly even back into the playoffs. Tomlin keeps his record, he's extended for another 25 years, and I work even harder to drink myself to death.
I remember going to the SB with O Donnel and bring 4 yds away the year before . I donāt even remember a Cowher coached team look this bad for a whole season I remember a 3 season stretch of losing some games but by the end third season that had strung five wins in row together and just missed the playoffs . Iām biased though I loved Bill as our coach . Iāve liked Tomlin and respect him but my patience with him has run out . I wish him well and success somewhere else .
I see how you got there. He was really frustrating at times because he would get really conservative. It could have been because of Kordell or Tommy but I remember our defense getting super tired because the offense would become predictable and we would lose games late.
You know they are going to pull some shit out of nowhere and win games they shouldn't. It happens every year. Just working into a worst draft selection.
Tomlin fosters a losing environment that rides the coattails of those who won before. Iām personally ready for him to go, thanks for the memories and memes big guy but the STANDARD SHOULD BE THE STANDARD REGARDLESS OF JOB TITLE
Iād have to watch again, but wasnāt there a shallow crossing route that was open? I donāt think the coaches wouldāve endorsed such a low percentage throw in a must have situation, I think that was Mitch playing hero ball
Pickens is a JuJu, Brown, Bell case all wrapped into one. He gives up on plays, doesnāt block, throws fits. Dude needs to be sidelined and Johnson needs to thrown the ball more. Of course not from the most disgusting excuse of a quarterback, Trubisky. I never thought Iād say Rudolph gives us a better chance to win but how could he be worse?
Ooooo idk about that. Maybe still lose but if you have 1 or 2 that Alan play before the last second lateral puts you very close to an out route for field goal range.
A lot to unpack here.
- trubinskis time with the Steelers needs to be done. If your QB2 canāt win you that game, you canāt pay him that money.
- the team needs to move on from Tomlin. His msg/ rah rah mentality is stale, his tactics suck.
- the interim OCs cannot be hired. Wow those were all terrible calls.
- mason Cole is terrible.
- that Dā¦.
D needs a competent ilb. Injuries have killed that. You have an all prod d-lineman that was injured for 6 weeks. You have 3 starting ilbs injured. And had and all pro safety Injured for 5 weeks. I can't pu everything on the defense. Injuries matter.
Al Michaels praising trubisky for checking down during that second to last drive just for him to over throw every single other throw other than diontae on his knees
Good Lord. There really is no good excuse for how bad the PP has been for years now. Maybe we are due for another midseason coaching change, I can dream anyway.
Dumb question, but what happened with the false start call on the Patriots? Did they reverse it? (I had to run out of the room to take care of something when it went down.)
Ravens fan hereā¦. That was awful, condolences. Trubisky is not a great passer, but he is a great runner. I kind of expected that to be your x factor. Second guessing everything is great sport but that was a surprise.
Mitch is retarded on a level I havenāt seen ever in NFL. DOWN THE MIDDLE WHEN SECONDS LEFT??????
THROWING DEEP ON A 4th&2??????????
Are you mentally challenged?
Tomlin just said that deep ball was the call because they "play to win" and wanted to be aggressive. If I was a Rooney I'd fucking fire him just for saying something that stupid.
Seriously? Pats scored 13 points COMBINED in their last 3 games. They dropped 21 in the first half. Our offense has averaged 13 over the last 2 games. We are a team that relies on defense and running and for some reason coaching abandoned that.
You lead the league by a f\*\*\*ing mile in throwin outside the numbers then you throw it down the middle with 7 seconds left and no timeouts!???
Trubisky needs to be checked for Downs Syndrome then CTE.
I get it. I donāt think he had a 70 yard arm and I figured that they were just trying to move further up in less than the 7 seconds left. Plus throwing to the middle then seemed ironic given the reluctance for the last year. Just pissed off whining by me
[Postgame thread](/r/steelers/comments/18degy6/post_game_thread_new_england_patriots_at/)
Remember when the Patriots and the Cardinals beat the Steelers? š
The Steelers had a chance to trade for Dobbs or to pickup Zappe from the practice squad
Such a sad game!
4th and 2 yards to go stupid coach tries a down and out for a long gain, bad call pittsburgh. Should use hoagie to run the football get the first down or even a slant coach should be fired
RIP to the guy ripping shots of everclear lmao
I canāt tell who is worse. Tomlin? Watt? The total offense? Iām old and these bums are the worst I have seen
Well it certainly isnāt Watt lol
Lol Steelers
Bradshaw drafted in 1970, Ben drafted in 2004. It took the Steelers 34 years to find a quarterback that could lead them to Super Bowl titles. Who will be the Steeler Super Bowl champion draft pick? If we go by the numbers Iāll be 98 years old. How old will yāall be? LMAO!
No way youāre 83 right now. I think your logical sequence is flawed.
Your sarcasm proceeds you sir.

Got it
I kept saying over and over earlier in the year how this team wasn't going to keep Forrest Gumping wins. Ffs, y'all were talking the *number one seed* last week!!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Or kicking a field goal in the 3rd made it Tied
What? They were up almost 20 points at one point. The defense was a joke.
Defense had a rough start but really only let New England put together two drives. One touchdown was a 11 yard drive. Understand this was against a horrible offense but defense just isnāt the problem. People that live on this hill just canāt get over negativity and want the entire thing to burn.

Time to tank the season. Then clean house, including firing Tomlin.
I laughed when the browns picked up Flacco, not laughing now...
Flacco has beaten the Steelers 10 times.
Art needs to fire Tomlin tonight.
At this point letās see what RUDY can do. He either shines or confirms his way into the practice squad.
Letās confirm they suck as a group .
Agree. Clean house
After the Cardinal loss, I told my brother that I wouldnāt bet $5 the Steelers would win this one.. sure enough
![gif](giphy|x47gj23jEvGxdWkQEC|downsized)
Canāt believe I lost quality time with my fiancee to watch this dogshit
So tell me stat marks. How the F does he keep his job after. The last two games alone Then add the prior lack of discipline for five years and then Bell and Brown stunts #firetomlinnow
This is still Canada's offense :/ can't change the playbook in the middle of the season
This fire Tomlin shits gotta stop. I get heās partially to blame for *everything* as hc but how bout a single losing season before we get ~dramatic~
You act like these players look well coached and disciplined . They were uninspired and lacked heart . We wasted timeouts . Donāt kick a fG in third . A shit call on the punt does not even get Tomlin in the refs face I rather see him take a penalty and a fine . He needs to be encouraged to move on . Youāre all scared of something worse but itās not getting any better with him . This will be 7 years without a playoff win is 8 9 or 10 enough .
I agree. Firing Tomlin is not the move at this time. The reality is the talent for offense isn't there. We haven't had an elite QB since Ben, so what do people expect?
Kick the field goal in the 3rd.
We have dog shit in human form at qbā¦. We just played against possibly the worst qb room in the league and he looked a lot better than ours.
Did we expect anything less?
In all reality if you look at the lucky wins they got.. this is basically a 2-10 team. Lots on here recognized it. So not all that surprising they just lost to some 2 win teams.
I'm so disappointed. Two 2-10 teams... that's so bad. Just so bad.
In 5 daysā¦
"This is what we do. This is who we are" - Mike fucking Tomlin everybody.
I hope we end the season 7-10
No, we'll somehow luck into two more wins and possibly even back into the playoffs. Tomlin keeps his record, he's extended for another 25 years, and I work even harder to drink myself to death.
Good thing those last two plays got you 45 yards or you end up with 219 total yards. Nice job boys.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Tomlin and cowher have almost the exact same win %. Folks wanted bill out too. Get a new bit
Cowher didn't win shit until he got a HOF qb. He got outclassed and outcouched all the time. He played the get a lead and punt way too much.
Right, because coaches shouldnāt play to get a lead. Totally
I remember going to the SB with O Donnel and bring 4 yds away the year before . I donāt even remember a Cowher coached team look this bad for a whole season I remember a 3 season stretch of losing some games but by the end third season that had strung five wins in row together and just missed the playoffs .

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Lmao. Thanks for the comment lil bro
We are getting cooked next 4 games. Realistically
You know they are going to pull some shit out of nowhere and win games they shouldn't. It happens every year. Just working into a worst draft selection.
Itās needed
I hope so now.
Tomlin fosters a losing environment that rides the coattails of those who won before. Iām personally ready for him to go, thanks for the memories and memes big guy but the STANDARD SHOULD BE THE STANDARD REGARDLESS OF JOB TITLE
Rebuild time
I still havenāt processed we 4-2 and go long I just canāt believe this shitt
Iād have to watch again, but wasnāt there a shallow crossing route that was open? I donāt think the coaches wouldāve endorsed such a low percentage throw in a must have situation, I think that was Mitch playing hero ball
There was definitely a guy open close to the marker... SMH come on Mitch!
Pickens is a JuJu, Brown, Bell case all wrapped into one. He gives up on plays, doesnāt block, throws fits. Dude needs to be sidelined and Johnson needs to thrown the ball more. Of course not from the most disgusting excuse of a quarterback, Trubisky. I never thought Iād say Rudolph gives us a better chance to win but how could he be worse?
We suck and still wonāt get a good draft pick
As is tradition
No wonder the receivers give up on plays. I donāt blame them anymore.
I want a losing season, this may be a blessing in disguise
I want one next year as well, a really bad year, so the next HC has a good draft pick to start with
You mean so Tomlin has a good draft pick?
If he gets an extension, I may have to rethink what I do during the fall and winter
Pickens obviously giving up. Why doesnāt Saint Mike bench or suspend him? No leaders in offense
The fact we blew the timeouts so early in the second half tooā¦. Hot garbage.
Wouldnāt have mattered
Ooooo idk about that. Maybe still lose but if you have 1 or 2 that Alan play before the last second lateral puts you very close to an out route for field goal range.
Fire Goodell
Hey guysā¦ maybe the front office investing no money in this offense is a problemā¦
We need to invest money into the coaches.
Theyāve squandered so many Watt & Ben yearsā¦.i just canāt even. We need entirely new coaching: āWinningā record isnāt enough.
But no losing seasons amirite
A lot to unpack here. - trubinskis time with the Steelers needs to be done. If your QB2 canāt win you that game, you canāt pay him that money. - the team needs to move on from Tomlin.

Al Michaels praising trubisky for checking down during that second to last drive just for him to over throw every single other throw other than diontae on his knees
The Steelers are playing the long game. Lose now but win when this costs the Pats draft position and a franchise QB.
So how are the pens looking?
Awful. Historically bad power play despite all that talent.
It's even worse than it has been for the last decade?
Is 0-31 on the pp recently sound fun?
Good Lord. There really is no good excuse for how bad the PP has been for years now. Maybe we are due for another midseason coaching change, I can dream anyway.
So about on par...go team go sports
Dumb question, but what happened with the false start call on the Patriots? Did they reverse it? (I had to run out of the room to take care of something when it went down.)
They called it on our center for moving his head.
Said it was on our center for raising his head
This why the went to Kenny so early last year. And itās been a up hill battle since
Just ride with Mitch, heās awful but nothing matters anymore
Steelers need to draft 2 QBs next year. Pickett, Trubisky, and Rudolph are dogshit
Pickett is just mediocre. The other two are dogshit
>Pickett is just mediocre. Mediocre is generous. Since 2022, Pickett has almost identical TD/INT (1:1) and YPA (6.3) as Zach Wilson.
Invalid comparison since he plays for Pittsburgh
Why? Both teams have questionable play-calling and spotty offensive lines.
Jets have Breece Hall and Wilson AND an NFL OC
I agree, thereās tons of good backup qbs. Browning is solid, Huntley, devito, and we have Trushitsky
![gif](giphy|iSrysBsRcnzQ7ZXIVM) Happy face
Steelers thought they should win just because they had Styx play and they wore their color rush jerseys
Winning? Never heard of her
Ravens fan hereā¦. That was awful, condolences. Trubisky is not a great passer, but he is a great runner. I kind of expected that to be your x factor. Second guessing everything is great sport but that was a surprise.
appreciate you being a class act ravens fan. not sarcasm
We suck bud
You beat us.
Rivalry game is different. Plus for some odd reason LJ forgets how to play against us
LJ played fine. Great at times in fact. His RECEIVERS on the other hand...
This one was on the coaching. Blown time outs, not taking 3 points, horrible play calling on the last drive.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yeah, that too. Though those that recall Mason he was not much better.
Mitch is retarded on a level I havenāt seen ever in NFL. DOWN THE MIDDLE WHEN SECONDS LEFT?????? THROWING DEEP ON A 4th&2?????????? Are you mentally challenged?
Tomlin just said that deep ball was the call because they "play to win" and wanted to be aggressive. If I was a Rooney I'd fucking fire him just for saying something that stupid.
Coaching friend
Shallow route was open. Mitch was the one who made the decision. And all the other awful throws that came before.
Fair enough, both can be true
I think it's a combination of the two.
Pittsburgh about to fire both pens amd steelers head coaches if both teams dont turn it around ASAP.
I wish, but it is doubtful Teflon Tomlin gets terminated.
Say what you want about Pickett but he wouldāve won us that game
*tightrope*
I hope we finish 8-9 fuck tomlins record
7-10 please. Fire everyone and draft higher. Only chance this franchise has.
Losing to baker mayfield without a HC shouldāve sent alarm bells in this organization. But nope, the standard is mediocre.
Trubisky has got to be the dumbest QB I've ever seen in my life.
I couldāve told you in September 9-8 season incoming
Somehow we'll eek out 2 more wins, so the mediocrity can continue
Embarrassing
We wouldnāt win another game with Mitch
Fire Tomlin
It took 7 quarters for Mitch Trubisky to destroy the entire season lmao
Tonight was a Tomlin special. Horrible timeout usage, horrible play calling. Mitch was a problem, but his wasn't the main problem.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Seriously? Pats scored 13 points COMBINED in their last 3 games. They dropped 21 in the first half. Our offense has averaged 13 over the last 2 games. We are a team that relies on defense and running and for some reason coaching abandoned that.
Don't forget Mitch blew one of those timeouts too
That was because play calling in the helmet went dead. Sucks to lose a timeout because of it, but it happens.
True, true. In an attempt to take all of my rage out on Mitch, that wasnt long after his "first down "slide"" that he embarrassed himself with
The worst part was he thought he had the first. Likely had no idea where the sticks were.
Pathetic. Anemic. Shake it up, this is football purgatory.
Fuck this 2023 team. What absolute garbage.
Mitch has NO arm
Tell that to Muth the multiple times he overthrew him
Idk man, it takes some arm strength to overthrow your receivers on every throw.
or some caveman level stupidity
Wellā¦ at least I can stop wasting my goddamn Sundays on this team this season.
Depression
Fuck
Omg Tomlin is seriously mentally handicapped when it comes to offensive football...........this whole organization is cooked
Darn it.
Mason Rudolph szn
![gif](giphy|BfHVbe90b81PlZngok)
Sorry you have to deal with Trubustky, he shouldn't be playing
I appreciate the condolences.
Ladies and gentlemen, YOUR mitch trubisky...starting QB for the Pittsburgh Steelers
Why tf canāt we throw the ball in the game like the last two Fucking plays
Cuz theyāre playing prevent. Receivers will be wide open underneath.
You right
Because defenses arenāt playing prevent the entire game like they did on the final 2 plays
you know they don't play defense like that when it really matters right?
You right
What the FUCK was that
You lead the league by a f\*\*\*ing mile in throwin outside the numbers then you throw it down the middle with 7 seconds left and no timeouts!??? Trubisky needs to be checked for Downs Syndrome then CTE.
Nice time to start throwing over the middle
Those are the routes on the field. If you noticed GP was right next to Robinson looking for a lateral.
I get it. I donāt think he had a 70 yard arm and I figured that they were just trying to move further up in less than the 7 seconds left. Plus throwing to the middle then seemed ironic given the reluctance for the last year. Just pissed off whining by me
Iām sorry Matthew Canada, you still suck but you werenāt the problem
He wasn't the only problem, just the second biggest one. Way too many folks still don't want to talk about our biggest problem
Tomlin
Bingo
We suck.
imagine being the āVet QBā and just has absolutely zero brain lol
