I hate to admit it but I think Neon is right about Ben. I also think if that happens, maybe Tomlin is gone next year.
that's it.... feel better now?I’ll reveal my inner most thoughts since I’m so shy about writing what I feel.. just this once though...
Steelers have a clown named Jackie Chilli coaching their team and he tries to use big words and phrases to make it appear he has higher intelligence than those he’s speaking to... but all it really is, is podium diarrhea from a fraud with a forked tongue.
The only person he seems to be fooling these days is the owner, but I guess that’s the guy he needs to keep duping.
I’m sorry but....hilarious
Been saying this exact thing for years but guys like Fatty McLardy get all bent out of shape when you highlight it.
For nearly 2 decades the Patriots offense has consistently schemed guys WIDE ****ING OPEN and all Brady has to do is play pitch and catch with these dudes for big gains. There is at least one guy wide open on every play (at least against the Steelers...)
Brady has fit balls in tight windows but 95% of the time he just has to get the snap, drop back and order a TB12 smoothie, and then find the guy running free and toss it to him. It’s so ****ing easy for him that it’s disgusting, and how that guy was describing every pass is EXACTLY how the announcers and media cover it. They want you to believe that Brady is dropping absolute dimes all over the field, into perfect coverage, at 42, with 6 rings on his hands...
You take any starting QB in the league and put him in that system, with guys wide open on every down, and they’ll have success. He’ll, Matt ****ing Cassell played a whole season in that system, went 11-5, and then fleeced the Chiefs who thought he was the real deal, only to find out that it wasn’t HIM, it was the system he was playing in.
The slobberfest every season is sickening and it doesn’t look like it risk be ending anytime soon.
“Welcome to Super Bowl 65, where 11 time champ, Tom Brady, at 64, will be looking for ring number 12 to make it a perfect dozen.”

It was laughable that midway through the 4th quarter, the Steelers started blitzing.You would think that at some point a DC like Butler would simply line 11 men up on the line, hold the WR's off of the line for 5 straight plays and hit Brady into oblivion..... I mean if I'm going to lose anyway, somebody's gonna get ktfo..... right?
Getting pressure on Brady has been the only way to beat the Pats for like 20 years.
Brady is an amazing QB. His release is insanely fast which makes it difficult to get to him. There's a reason the only thing that's worked on him is tight man-to-man coverage + heavy pressure. You have to throw off his timing, give him little to nothing early, and get in his face otherwise he'll pick you apart.
The reason the short routes work so well for him is his insane accuracy. 9/10 times his guy is catching in full stride. The Pats YAC is probably among the best in the league every year for that reason alone. Ben has tried to do this but his throws are off target too often. The plays get stopped after just a few yards where for Brady it's probably another 5-10.
It was laughable that midway through the 4th quarter, the Steelers started blitzing.
Might as well start the game doing that and be in Brady’s face on every snap and even knock him down a few times. The friggin receivers are wide open anyway, so might as well just let them run free and house blitz Brady.
Bum Phillips once said of Chuck Noll (not the exact quote): "He'll take his'ns and beat your'ns and take your'ns and beat his'ns."
Is there anyone who doubts that the same doesn't apply to Hoodie and Tomlin?
Call it nutty if you want. Brady can absolutely read defenses with the best of them, not denying that. But he is rarely pressured and his receivers are always running WIDE OPEN. Very rarely is he forced to roll out of the pocket and then thread a dart through multiple defenders to where only his guy can catch it. You give almost any starting QB in the league that much time and comfort in the pocket and then receivers running wide open with nobody within 5 yards of them, they’ll be successful .Maybe people are open so much because it is a really well designed offense and Brady is really good at reading the defense and finding the holes.
The idea that it has nothing or little to do with Brady is just nutty.
