That's obviously a tip of the cap to Coach T, if you will.

It's fun to make fun of the Ravens, but don't forget they fired their OC mid-season and then went on to win the Super Bowl that year. This is one team that's not afraid to make big, meaningful changes.

Club Tomlin isn't an isolated occurrence.

Honestly, while you could view these things as distractions, they probably do help with the team building element of things. And after the various videos showing the 'perks' tech employees get (particularly the quota-filling elements they employ) , it isn't exclusive to athletes.

Other teams removing ping pong is about the only coaching tree Jibbs will ever have.

Nobody copies anything else the man does nor wants any of his cookin.
Jibba Jabber’s offense hasn’t scored more than 7 1st quarter points in 81 consecutive games. An NFL record by far. A historic amount of “easin in”. We are lucky to have him.

What happens when "unleashing hell" collides with "historic defense"?

Will you be surprised if Baltimore catches us by year/end?

I won’t. Actually hope it happens.

That would be super bad for Jibbs, his lame staff, and the Dunce at the top.

Plus. They said fuck the ping pong tables alone, they went ahead and removed video game consoles, basket ball hoop and corn hole boards. They mean business.

Not at all, I actually expect it to happen.

Getting back to posts in another thread about how stupid our fan base is….the dumb shit they post on social media

I saw so many posts before the Cincy game about how we were going to run away with the AFC Norff

And they’re still banging that drum

I honestly think we don’t win the division

I also think we stand to get embarrassed on an historic level when we face the Lions….who I personally hope win the SB.

They could easily be 2-4. Of course, yinzers would probably say "they COULD be 6-0!!!"

Tomlin teams seem to go on extended losing streaks just when you start thinking they're too good for that. This defense has been mostly horrific over the last 13-14 games. And they are only going to get more tired and broken down as the season goes on.

I would not bet on fewer than 9 wins. I also think if we don't win the division we won't make the playoffs. Don't believe Flacco and CIN is really a threat, but BAL likely will put it together. We've played BAL and Lamar really tough, but with 2 games that could erase our lead.

Well, so did we. At least the "fired the OC mid-season" part.
