Mike Tomlin's Sideline Move


TheRed

Recommended Posts

If you watched the Thursday night game between Pittsburgh, and Baltimore, you are probably familiar with this incident.

 

It occurred while Jacoby Jones was returning a punt, and Tomlin is seen clearly over the white line, looking over his shoulder, and grins afterwards. The league is currently looking into it. So what does everyone else think about this? No big deal, or downright dirty?

 

Regardless, it's a bad look for the NFL, and a head coach like Tomlin should know better.

Tomlin is an arrogant ass. I used to like him, but over the years he's become kind of an unbearable prima donna. At a minimum he should take a hefty fine.

 

In a related story, NJ Nets coach Jason Kidd "accidentally" dropped his soda on the court when he was out of timeouts to get some extra time with his guys and was fined $50k by the NBA less than 48 hours after the incident.

Cowher came pretty close to pulling a similar stunt on a game ending interception return back when he was coaching.  He was facing the guy and had a fist raised, but stepped back.

 

Sal Alosi is the only guy I know who was ever caught, but I doubt he's the only perpetrator.

The thing that us really odd us that he wasn't watching the play except maybe on the jumbo torn. What kind of coach doesn't keep his eyes on the field during special teams plays?

50k for a timeout. ..it would've been a brilliant move if it were the playoffs....regular season it's kinda stupid.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
