Divisional Round Thread - More Complaints

[Pickett's Platoon]

Kelce is a giant douche

He is also a one man wrecking crew so far.

Oh he’s a first ballot player. But he’s just so unlikable.

I dislike Mahomes more.

[LakecrestSteeler]

That ball was at least 65 in the air. Pretty good arm.

29 to the 14 = 57 yards.

21 yards + 36 yards. And that was with crow jumps.

And as a reminder Kenny thru a 70 yard INT in the air.

[Orangesteel]

Jags are a fun team. Lots of weapons. Way more entertaining than the Steelers

What do you mean? Steelers are tons of fun to watch on defense when they play mediocre offenses.

[El Kabong]

Patrick got his shot.

[langer]

Creed Humphrey was born without a neck. He looks like that Juggernaut character.

[langer]

Ask him.

He, like many else who left the Steelers, threw shade at the Steelers braintrust.

He said he’s learned more offense in his short time with Andy Reid than he did in five years with the Steelers.

Are you saying Andy Reid is better than Coach???

I hope you drown in a vat of Galliker's Iced Tea!! Everyone knows Mike Tomlin is irreplaceable and that Andy Reid sucks!!!

SaniDairy and Turkey Hill iced teas want to say hello!

Back when I was a kid, Gallikers made good spitters.

The more and more I watch this game, the closer I think the Steelers are to being an actual contender.

Buffalo looked like utter shit. The Chiefs miss Tyreek Hill massively.

The Bengals are the best team in the AFC.

[langer]

These injuries will add up. Mahomes is not as good immobile.

But we’ll see if he pulls this off.

[langer]

Did the refs ask Jags oline to not block that huge dude at all.

Hilarious.

[LakecrestSteeler]

KC’s center should be called for false start nearly every shot-gun play. He is doing that faux quick squat, like he needs to look at the defense, soely to draw people offsides. Bullshit it hasn’t been called. Pederson should be in the refs ear about that.

[Pabst]

For as good as Mahomes is, games like this make me wonder if he'll age well.

Athleticism and superhuman arm talent won't be there forever

arm talent is the last to go, though.

He certainly has the arm to adapt. Might be a couple of difficult years while he makes the transition.

[Kodiak.]

Dude, it's been 6+ years since we even won a playoff game.

As long as Tomlin is HC, the ceiling is probably the occasional one-and-done.

[Pickett's Platoon]

Mahomes career will be flushed down the shitter in the next couple years.

[Kodiak.]

Lawrence not-quite-there with the elite guys yet, but he might be next year.

[Pabst]

That's at least the 2nd time the RG for Jax has allowed a free rusher at Lawrence

True.

I just feel like some of those back foot / side arm throws he does are not going to age well

steeler FA target?

I hate Tomlin as much as the next guy, but there's been plenty more wrong with this team than just him in recent playoff contests.

Every year is different and I'm looking to see we add to the building blocks already in place.

Jacksonville missed several opportunities to win this game but they did everything in their power to lose this and they did.

I know that feeling from watching the Steelers the last decade. Way too many self-inflicted wounds.

[Steelperch]

The more I watch this game the more I realize how inept a Mike Tomlin defensive gameplan in the playoffs is.

[Kodiak.]

I hate Tomlin as much as the next guy, but there's been plenty more wrong with this team than just him in recent playoff contests.

And just 3 playoff wins in the last 12 years?

Tomlin is the biggest problem on the team, and has been for years. And he's responsible for most of those holes and shortcomings.

Tomlin and his schemes are grossly outclassed in the playoffs.

[Kodiak.]

The more I watch this game the more I realize how inept a Mike Tomlin defensive gameplan in the playoffs is.

Not to mention the offensive plan....

[Stosh-67]

5th straight AFC championship for Reid

Tomlin and his schemes are grossly outclassed in the playoffs.

...and we've taken turns, on both sides of the ball, shooting ourselves in the foot. Over and over again, when it matters most.

Tomlin blows, but he isn't on the field making those mistakes.

No but he builds the team of idiots that are out there making those mistakes, and blowing his wad on draft busts like Arthur Burns and Devin Bush.

[jeemie]

Hero of this game is Harrison Butker.

But for him nipping Agnew, this game is 27-24 with five and a half minutes left.

No doubt Tomlin shoulders a lot of the blame, but the players shoulder a ton of the blame too.

I mean....I don't think Cool Shades said to Maurkice Pouncey; "Hey, remember what we've been working on all week in practice, right? When you go out there to start this playoff game, I want you snapping that ball 12 feet over 7's head. You got that?"

I mean....come the fuck on..

What is Tomlin's defensive gameplan in the playoffs and how is it deficient?
