So, I made a joke when those yinzer manginas lost to Jacksonville that went something like this...
"Who are they gonna blame now, Todd Haley's pelvis?"
Well, it looks like that's EXACTLY what they're doing with his firing.
Also, Ben Roethisberger is a rapist. Infowars.com.

I wasn't even going to comment on him being a rapist and was going to further comment on how stupid it is for Ben to say he's not allowed to audible!
So you're telling me that, if there's 8 defenders in the box, no safety, and the corners are playing tight, you're not allowed to audible to a streak to Antonio Brown?!
That example is actually less stupid than Ben saying that he couldn't audible to a QB sneak! What are they going to do when he scores? Bench him? What are they going to do if he gets stopped? Bench him?!
Especially since the Patriots bunched the line to stop a QB dive, but stood up and didn't even move, so when Ben was standing in the pocket waiting to throw, he could have taken a step to his right and dove for the first (or likely ran it in for a touchdown), or stood up at the snap and done that from the start!

Maybe they'll promote Munchak, with his fighting spirit? Hell, he's already got that hair pulling thing down..

On a more serious note, what are you counting? Your name's suggests you also see dead people as nothing to count.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.

This like a Bengals's move. The offense puts up 42 points against one of the top defenses in the NFL and the defense gives up 38 points to one of the worst offenses in the NFL. So, it was only logical fire the OC.

Good point.
But there was more going on here behind the scenes than meets the eye. The party line was that Ben and Haley were getting along, but apparently that was not the case.

Who cares if the results are great? We all work with people we don't like. If I were a Steeler's fan I would want Tomlin's or Butler's head at a minimum? This seriously looked like just like an inept Bengals FO move of the past. The new OC has some big results to match or exceed. If not, he looks like a bad hire and replacement.

Well, you also have the occasional mystifying play call in crucial situations, which was starting to get chronic. And as good as their offensive ranking was, one could argue it should have been even better. Perennial top ten is great but with that talent, maybe they should’ve been leading the league.
At the end of the day, neither of us is there on a day to day basis, so we don’t really know what went into the decision.

And I heard yesterday that the Steelers never got in the top 10 of red zone success. Something along those lines.

He got fired? I think they didn't renew his contract.

Luvinit hit the nail on the head about firing the OC after that offensive performance.
From what I understand, it's Tomlin that doesn't want him to QB sneak the ball, which, if he's 18 of 19 makes absolutely no sense, but I don't watch them play except for, but not always, when they play the Bengals, but I have seen him audible plenty of times, motioning to his receivers and such.

This! Plus, to educate the Steelers fans here, the problem with the Bengals is the owner Mike Brown. He just does not have the football mind his father had, and is more concerned about being 'liked' than winning.
When he fired Zampese (OC), after 2 games into the season, it was the FIRST time a coach has been fired after the season started and before the season ended in his 26 years as owner!!
I don't care who is the HC and what kind of players they have Steelers fans, as long as he is the owner, Steelers have nothing to worry about from them!!

And we don't get paid millions of dollars to do it.
Tomlin's gone and I don't know how they haven't fired him already. Maybe they're making sure they can find an adequate replacement or maybe they just don't want to make it seem like they're making a rash decision. Maybe they don't want to make it seem like they're just doing it to cave to the fans.

Him thinking that he has the football mind of his old man is what gave us a decade and a half to two decades of stupid decisions, and I don't think he gives a rat's ass about being liked because he has shit on the city multiple times, like with making us pay for the stadium, and I think he's more concerned about money than winning, which he doesn't understand that winning brings money. You need to spend money to make money.

Jacksonville had a higher points per game average than us this year. Belichick wouldn't have a game under 40 with our offense.

Don't get me started on Tomlin. With one of the most talented teams on paper and he can't seem to win when it counts pisses me off more than anything. Pittsburgh has more talent on the field than New England but the Patriots have a much smarter coach and that's the difference. Tomlin can't seem to beat the teams he's supposed to. The Steelers win in spite of Tomlin. He's the biggest joke in the playoffs.

But why is he 'off limits' for media criticism like Colin Cowherd has stated CO? it's not because he's black because the media beats Marvin Lewis to death, which, to tell the truth, isn't his fault that Mike Brown continues to keep him on.
