Try using the Google for all pro players during Tomlin's time. Pretty good list, post Ben too boot, yet dragging them? But only through the regular seasons, right?

Maybe you should review each of his playoff loses, I would bet my aunt fanny, that those same mistakes are made in each loss

You are assuming that Lamar doesn't fumble or throw an int against Buffal or Flowers doesnt fumble at the goal line against Kc. Or Andrews catches those easy passes that either extend a key drive or ties the score as the game clock expires. Or that Lee Evans doesn't drop the easy game winning touchdown against the Pats in the last few seconds of the AFC championship game in 2011 or in the same game, Cundif doesn't miss the easy, short, game tying field goal. These are easy plays to make that have nothing to do with the coach but all kept a very good team from going to 3 other Super Bowls, likely winning at least 1 maybe 2 more. All of that with Harbs and would have happened with Tomlin. Again, he won nothing after his 2nd Super Bowl appearance, except the the division title, 7 straight playoff loses, 7

I get it papa, but you are being a bit of a double standard here. These two coaches, who both will likely be in the Hall of Fame one day, are interchangeable. They both took over teams with strong leaders in position and guided them, inspired them, to win Super Bowls. Neither of them got close after their respective leaders retired or were released, the Ravens dis get closer than the Steelers. Same coach, one you would take over the other because you apply a rule to one and not the the one you would chose.

I get your trepidation, we don't know how ir what these three are looking for in a coach. Only Ozzie has really been through this and he did pretty well. The Biscuit was in on the Billick firing Harbs hiring as well. Yes, the wrong coach could set this team back 5 years or more, same as drafting the wrong quarterback or signing the wrong one for that matter. But one thing this team has a core talent, it's not as if this team was horrible like says the Raiders or Browns for years and it is here we go again. This team is only now 1 season removed from a true Super Bowl contender. There are a few coaches out there who appear to be great choices in Minter, Flores and the like. Yes, most of us chose to have "faith", "trust" pick your word, in the organization to make the right choice, they did with Billick and Harbs and got 2 Super Bowls, many great games, and seasons. Unlike the Browns, Raiders, Jets, and their ilk.

Donte Moore returning to Oregon, smart choice, he is not NFL ready. Neither is the Bama kid, why he is going pro is puzzling. It cant be the money, what with the NIL money now. Granted, of all years to go pro from the qb position, this will be it, only 1 guy worthy of a 1st round pick

The Biscuit said it is a team/family desicion, they will all have a say in who is hired, him included who will have the final say. Selective hearing papa Ole pal

Purdy was the last pick, there have been several qbs taken after the 1st or late in the 1st, they could have drafted. Do you know the pecking order of the Steelers? Did he not have any say in when and who to draft? With his record, at the time? You go to 2 Super Bowls, winning one, plus all those division titles, just when do they shut down and draft a qb early? So Tomlin was slow on when to pull the trigger, they had a shot at Lamar and passed. Seems to me, as I said, he is Harbs, Harbs is him. What separates them is a win or two each year that can be attributed to players making mistakes. The ball bounces funny sometimes and it has nothing to do with the coach. But it does with a close win.

Everyone gives their name before asking a question, case solved

Why couldn't he get those players in his 19 years at Pitt? He won his Super Bowl and got to another with players drafted BEFORE he became coach. Just like, as you say, Harbs did with his Super Bowl victory. Once those players got old, were released, or retired, he brought in no one. Should we go over the list of qbs he brought in & or drafted over the years? Same coach, no thanks. It is not a Pitt thing, I just see the two as interchangeable. OK, there is the whole stepping onto the field to slow down Jacoby Jones as he was returning a kick for an easy touchdown, where everyone gave him a pass including the league.

Pit has many issues, it is not as good of a job as some think. They are aged, on defense, and some on offense. Then there is the qb situation, they don't have one and draft a bit low to get one in this coming weak qb draft class. They have been running on duct tape and chewing gum for years.

I hope they get a head coach soon, the good oc's will be taken quickly what with the Iggles and Chargers now needing one

What? Really? 1 super Bowl win, same as Harbs. Great regular season record, not so much in the post season. He is Harbs, the one you bash when the wind blows north. No thanks, besides he said he wants to take a year off.

I agree, very good owner, inviting Lamar to sit in on the interviews, great sense of humor. His passion for the team came through loud and clear. A great watch/listen

The Biscuit: "we have players on the offensive line that did not develope, took a step back, why? Coaching, so we have to fix that" On free agents on the team and Lamar's contract; want it done before free agency hits so we can sign our own players and go from there. If we have to, we will toss the $75 mil into void years and have him at this year's price. What I (the Biscuit) want to see happen is just add money to the current contract, it is that simple. Eric, 9 interviews between now and Sunday
