freaking 5 losses in a row to end the season for my steelers. I don't know how we keep ending seasons like this, but it's getting REAL old.

I swear, it's like we hit the threshold for getting into the playoffs, saw those last few games (against the Eagles, Chiefs, and Ravens), knew we could lose them and still make it, let our foot off the gas, and when it came time to hammer down, we just didn't have it in us. Cam Heyward having an all-star season this far into his tenure does not deserve this kind of ending. I don't know what needs to change, but man, SOMETHING does.

Maybe the Rooneys should punish Tomlin by trading him to the Jets

Tomlin for Rodgers straight up?

It might be the first time two teams traded head coaches straight up like that

As a Steelers fan, do you want Tomlin gone?

No. He's been the bedrock upon which our franchise operates. However, I've seen this time and time again, where it feels like we just let our foot off the gas towards the end of the season. We overlook what should be certain victories, and fail to rally for big games. We had some injuries on the O-line that hindered us, but it just feels like we're using the same losing formula every year hoping that this time it'll work. I think we need to use this draft to solidify our O-line, bring in some depth at Running back, get another legit WR to take the pressure off Pickens, and stick with Russel Wilson (at least for now).

Our offense has been doing better since we got Arthur Smith, but he may be head coaching somewhere else next year. If that happens, oof. It'll be another season of pain while we try to find our offensive footing.

Thank goodness I'm also a Cleveland Cavaliers/ Ohio State Buckeyes fan. Can't be too sad about one of my teams not doing well when my other two are wreaking havoc ๐Ÿ˜…

This is a hallmark of Tomlin.

I feel this as Husker native turned KC transplant. At least one red football team wins games.
