Tomlin Tuesday had the guys a bit fiery following the loss to the Bears with a very odd takeaway from Mike Tomlin – blaming the punting/kickoff game for a big reason why the Steelers lost the game. Poni put the ‘mediocre’ mantra on Tomlin and said it was unfair of him to put it on Mason Rudolph. What is Mike’s record since the retirement of Ben Roethlisberger? Tomlin was also a wise ass to Chris Carter after asking an X’s & O’s type question. The Bears dirty, bouncy balls played the big factor.

Some stats on Mike Tomlin in his last few years as head coach. An interesting Josina Anderson post from this morning referencing a longtime head coach wanting a ‘change of scenery.’

Tomlin-ism of the Week – The Steelers will be missing Broderick Jones and Derrick Harmon on Sunday – a pair of recent 1st round picks. The guys also discussed a few players dinged up going into the weekend. Could we finally see Marquez Valdes-Scantling or Asante Samuel?
