Yeah, it's pretty bad when the Network switched away to the Chargers/Dolts game...

Yeah nobody ever brings up Marvin, and even the whiniest fan won't complain about the refs when they lose by a triple sawbuck

Pshaw!  Many of us have been on the "replace Marvin" bandwagon for years.  He can evaluate and amass some talent, but as a game coach, he is not good.  He's proven time and again how he can't prepare a talent laden team for a big game.  (refs were in the Steelers pocket last week, Bengals should have given them this beatdown.. )

Marvin deserves to be scrutinized. Tomlin is a solid coach. 

Bengals lost by 15 and there was plenty of whining on the game day thread. Hell check out Ricky's "good game Broncos" thread in smack.

Nah I think I'll just stay here and watch you dance some more.

Genuinely curious. No smack intended.

I think it is both. The big surprise is the Eagles defense. The Steelers run offense was shut down.

Steelers looked good until the dropped pass in the endzone. My sense was that the Eagles were pscyhed about this game
all week and the Steelers came in overconfident.

Brown still got 140 yards somehow.

Marvin will be a head coach until either Mike Brown dies, he dies, he decides to retire, or Dalton/Green follow suit and demand to be traded.

Do you honestly think I can't go find a Steelers ganwday thread where they are complaining about the refs?

Sure you could. But you won't see it a week later like you do here. You've got guys still talking about last week while complaining about this week.

On the upside, the Steelers will now be motivated to live this down for the reset of the season.

I don't know how many catches he had, but he had to have been targeted 20+ times in the first 3 qtrs

No surprise. 

It was the steelers Super Bowl.

True. steelers don't play as well when they're forced to follow silly rules.

Probably because the steelers defenders aren't being tackled as they rush and probably because there's no questions about whether a knee was down or not. 

How ****ing hard is that to understand, but no, you make some dumbass comment about simply "whining about calls". 

GTFO widatshit.
