Postgame Press Conference (Week 10 vs Lions): Coach Mike Tomlin | Pittsburgh Steelers

Yes because there isn’t any context that your leaving it

Agreed some many missed opportunities

@Steelers Nation you need about 15 seconds on the clock at the end of the play to have enough time to get set and snap it. Not a chance you can run a play, set the ball, and spike it. Besides they wanted to get it closer than the 57 yarder it would’ve been and running over to one side might just lose yards. Diontae or Freiermuth need to not fumble the game away.

@Blake A my point was freiermuth’s route was basically the same as a short run play, he got 3 yards and stayed in bounds, even if he didn’t fumble it’s a running clock with however many seconds left, would’ve had the same time either way if u ran it for 3 yards

@Steelers Nation well obviously he’s trying to run out of bounds there

@Blake A ik, it rly just comes down to ya gotta hold onto the ball. Same with Dionte🤷

@Wicked Sick, Funky Fresh, Roller Coaster Enthusiast False. YPC were great until he had to take a -16 yard rush on a bad snap. And true, considering Najee was drafted in the 1st round and is starting as a rookie and considering most NFL players weren’t drafted in the first round and did not immediately start as rookies, he is well above NFL standard. Although your first opinion was factually and logically incorrect, I do like both of your opinions.

@Brian Akus Rudolph was responsible for it coming down to that…

No and he’s light years better than Mason.

@JASMAD999 Rudolph, a guy who comes in with less than 24hrs notice to start and hasn’t seen the field in a yr. His 30-50 is what you want to bring in as the reason. You just asked this guy, knowing everything I just said, to show up and bust out 50 pass attempts. Absolutely he was rusty, but I’d ask you how many starters this week would have done better?
I didn’t even hit every game, but here are 15qbs out of 12 games this week alone. These 15 or so include Rodgers, Wilson, Brady, Lamar, etc. And out of everyone Rudolph is the ONLY ONE to not be sacked on this list. Lamar was sacked 4x. So look at this list without bias and say, huh, our number 2 stepped in and gave us a hell of a chance and if it weren’t for the rest of the team screwing up, we’d have won this thing. We may have something here after the rust gets shaken off.
Rudolph 30-50 250yd 1td 1int. Rtg 73, 4 rush 36yds 9ypc

Maybe you people should do some thinking before putting stupid comments on here like Haskins is better, dude is trash. How about stop launch snapping the ball over the qb head so he has to jump 8x while the field is bad, or how about stop putting the ball on the ground when your in fg range. How about not letting scrubs run for over 200yds before you get pissed enough to do something about it. How about the 2 fumbles in ot in fg range. How about the sh>t refs that made sh>t up to keep it close. How about the play calling and complete lack of preparation on the coaching staff. You don’t think det watched the chi tape and said we can run? Why wasn’t our d ready to stop it like they did at the end. Why didnt we get the ball to 22 over and over inside the 5. Why didn’t we just let him run to the hash on the last play with 15sec left and spike it. 2x in ot alone boz had a shot at less than 50yd and they fumbled. Oh, this was a team loss from top to practice squad. 2 and 22 busted their asses out there with a gutsy performance. 2 wasn’t perfect but who would be coming off not playing for a yr and finding out your starting in less than 24hrs.

@sons of liberty glad Goff on there he dang near got out played by a man who could not get over a 100 pass yards..
He rly couldn’t score multiple tds on that awful lions defense

@sons of liberty it would not have been a 50 yard field goal. Ar the end it would have bern a 56 yards. Boswell longest at Pittsburgh is 55 yards. Would give him maybe 30 percent chance of making it in the rain

Got everything to work on

But AR2 be like, “Nah” 😆😆😆

Just curious what adjustments should we have made?

He really fucks up on multiple plays throughout each game. They usually do serve to hurt the steelers. What kills me is all the media just loves him and never points out his faults.

@Fred Henry found another Tomlin homer….

First Tomlin has to go.

@Stanley Rossiello
Long shot, my friend.
Unless somebody can dig up some emails.

@The Real It would be a PR nightmare for them if they canned him.

@Stanley Rossiello
Exactly.

I’m not a Steelers fan but I watched a couple of preseason games and wonder why Haskins isn’t playing?

I can, this exactly the type of let down the Steelers do. Right when you think they may turn the corner.

@Don White yeah your right. They always play like that with the worst teams

Everybody gives the Steelers their best!

@Raul Vito Mason missed a wide open TD from the 4 yard line. That’s not “game plan”. The kid has no arm talent.

@Raul Vito I would say mediocrity is somewhere between too bad to be below average and not good enough to be above average. There is a lot of room for descriptions other than mediocrity in between “really bad” and “truly great”. Factually, Tomlin is an above average coach. Mediocrity would be a coach of moderate quality and Tomlin is not “truly great”, but he is far from the true definition of mediocrity. Trust me, you’d rather Tomlin over about 95% of all other NFL/college HC options based off of statistics, analysis, and logic; but believe me, we still know there are better options, just very few.

@brad He should have had many losing seasons. I believe the talent of players kept that from happening. Hell Big Ben would have absolutely awesome games and many times they would still lose . Tomlin sucks. Even in this game . The Fans wanted him to go for it there in the first quarter and he didn’t. Having no faith in your players is the first sign of a bad leader!

@Rowland Buck that lions team has had some really close losses. Took an NFL record FG from the Ravens who are leading the division currently. How quickly everyone forgets

YES I KNOW!!!! Every single week, there is a idiotic play call that ruins our game… I agree that the bears had bad calls but the steelers get horrible calls on a weekly basis….

If we win game’s like every other team multiple score we don’t have to worry about the ref . Just to think the eagles score 44 points on the lions smh

What about Diontae Johnson?

He caught a touchdown and played alright, the 2 fumbles killed us

@Cesar Blanco failed in situation football but at least he didn’t have any miscommunications or false starts this game

They’re more dangerous but their still the lions. This game was nothing to be proud of. Bad play calls, choking under pressure, bad snaps, penalties, fumbles, and everything else. On top of that a couple injuries. The real unsung hero of the game was boz. If we had a bad kicker we would’ve lost the last few games
