Won't matter. ArtII in his infinite wisdom would allow Ben to leave or retire first. Won't happen.

I think the poster's anger prevented a complete thought.

Rogers wanted McCarthy fired. Maybe Ben will want Tomlin fired.

They're pretty buddy buddy, though.

Aaron? Called for McCarthy to be excused I believe he's referring to.

Yup. And then they fired the LB'ers coach because he called them out on it in social media.

Tomlin may suck as a coach, but he's no dummy. He's been buddy-buddy ass kisser with Ben since Day 1. Ben isn't going to demand Tomlin get fired.

He should. Wait until his agent and Dad gets in his ear, and a few others that are close to him.

Mike Tomlin is Doug Collins holding MJ back!

May be the only person B2B would consider firing Mike Tomlin for. Zen and all that.

It's hard to disagree with that, unfortunately.

I think Ben just enjoys the game and want to have fun playing, at this point. Sure, he talks about winning another ring but I think that's mostly a bonus.

For all the criticism of Tomlin not putting Ben back in - which, IMO, is fully warranted - Ben didn't exactly appear to be chomping at the bit to get back in. He was keeping loose, but it didn't look like he was anxious to get back in.

I think we need to criticize Ben as much as Tomlin for him not being on the field there.

Absolutely! Winners want to play unless they definitely can't. Any other QB would have insisted in being in!

Speculation that he was waiting for shot in rib cartilage to kick in.

That shit takes 15 minutes, max. No way he should have missed all of Q3, if any.

I think you are exactly right. 15 game minutes exactly!

He got the shot at the end of half, or shortly into Q3. He was ready to play when he came back on the field (and looked like he expected to go back in carrying his helmet).

I’d settle for Janet Jackson. Bet she could figure out when to call a time out.

And we laughed at Russ Grimm when he stated what we all thought was so obvious.
The Steelers are among the NFL’s worst teams in total offense (30th) and total defense (28th). Highest paid defense in the league by far. We are lucky to have Mike Tomlin.

Tomlin is a dinosaur. I would have replaced him some time ago.

Too much running the football on first down in the first half. Too much small ball in the first half. Long slow dumb drives eating too much clock contributing to us only having 4 possessions in the first half.

When the coaches really really wanted to score with Ben returning to the game, 6 passes on 6 first downs. A fast moving drive and the result was a TD.

There is nothing impressive about scoring 14 in the first half against that Raiders defense. That is less than the league average for a half against them.
Throw. The. Football. On. First. Down.

If that were the case then why did he get Haley fired? That is the scuttlebutt with regard to the offensive coordinator. Just say it on Tuesday’s show that Tomlin needs a helper to manage the clock and injuries. Just do it Ben PLEASE! For the love of Steeler Nation!
