Pittsburgh has lost five straight now. Considering Pittsburgh has such a rich history of winning, I think it's legitimate to call for Tomlin's head. He's now coached the Steelers to five straight losses. They were sacked 8 times by the Cleveland Browns. They only gave Mendenhall six -- count 'em -- six! rushes. Clearly the playcalling is terrible in Pittsburgh.

If you lose to teams like Kansas City, Oakland, AND Cleveland it's obvious that you don't have what it takes to be a coach in the NFL. Plus, I hate how Tomlin went and said in a press conference that the Steelers would "unleash hell." I think Tomlin needs to adjust his press conference attitude. I can only imagine he'd be on at least a four game win streak right now if he stuck to the football cliches (fundamentals, pad level, promise to take a look at the film and get things adjusted). To go out and be bold -- be a leader, be vocal, fire up the troops -- that's totally irresponsible.

Pittsburgh has a very good passing attack, so it's absolutely ludicrous for him to abandon the run like they did tonight.

All I see are empty promises. Clearly the man -- despite playing with a defense that is still ranked in the top five -- needs to be fired. Forget about the Super Bowl -- which clearly he played a huge part in -- he needs to be gone. Pittsburgh deserves to win every game, every week, forever. They're history is that rich. They should bring in Bill Cowher -- I think he'd fire up the troops! He certainly wouldn't tolerate losing to bad teams. He'd hold the guys accountable! That's what the Steelers lack right now: playcalling, and accountability.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

I know that he hasn't done really well this year, but you don't fire the Super Bowl winning coach the next season.

Change the Bucs with the Chiefs.

Obviously, this thread was made in jest, but one has to wonder how Steeler nation is viewing this. Think they're calling for Cowher to come back, after Tomlin got them two Super Bowl? I can see the arguments, already; "Now that Cowher's players are all leaving, Tomlin can't do shit, fire him". Or something like that.

I don't think the owners would ever do such a thing, and they shouldn't, but fans jump off a bandwagon quite fast.

Makes you see how big of an impact one player has, btw. Without Polamalu, this team looks lost at times. 13 points doesn't sound like much, but against the Browns, that's not an acceptable amount, if you're the Steelers defense.

Still, against the Browns' defense, it's something you should overcome, having a QB who "knows how to win" and stuff. :wickedfart:

Don't worry evad, you will have your chance. I look forward to it too, because that will mean that the Packers are in the playoffs.

I wasn't the only one here that called for Mike McCarthy to be fired, but I was the loudest. So I will take one for the team if/when we make the playoffs. 🙂

Shortly thereafter I will apologize for being such a dick to everyone who was calling for his head. It really is funny how emotional we all get.

The one thing I don't think we factor is how yound our team is and how injuries at key positions tear things down. But this young team has shown a lot of character, which a lot of that credit belongs with the coach.

Hell i'm still calling for his head. He is not head coach material, this win streak is basically because of Capers and not MM. But i am loving the Steeler nation falling apart and fast. I'm in 7th heaven right now with all the pissed off Stiller fans around here 🙂
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Haze, how flambouant does a Packer fan dare to be with wearing the gear next weekend? I've been in Pittsburgh before and watched a couple Buffalo boys get thrown right off the bridge.
