The lack of discipline was apalling. I would also trade the idiot LB. (still not sure what Pac Man did.)
One is a serial problem.Should Pitt fire their HC? I find lack of control over assts being even worse. You had one Pitt asst go on the field and grab a Cincy player (by the hair?) and another on the field during the hoopla that wasn't supposedly allowed out there and was possibly talking crap to Cincy players.

Briancuse said:Tomlin has a sb, Lewis is 0-7 in the playoffs. Lets face it the Bengals are never going to get over the hump with this guy, its time for a change.
That wasn't the discussion. The post was about firing him because of his players behavior. I find coaches bad behavior to be less tolerable.

One behavior could have caused death or paralysis and was a totally selfish and criminal act. The other was a supervisor getting too emotional over the former.That wasn't the discussion. The post was about firing him because of his players behavior. I find coaches bad behavior to be less tolerable.

Ask Bills fans if they would have liked to have played in seven playoff games in the last 13 years.Disagree. Dalton got hurt. Everyone knew they were going nowhere after that. With Dalton, different story.

Dalton has been terrible in the playoffs, hes not Tom Brady, its time for the Bengals to move on.
True, but Dalton was also a significantly better player this year than he was in any other season.
Ghost said:How Porter escaped without a penalty is beyond me - I'm still not sure what Jones did that warranted one more than Porter. Especially since the rules don't allow Porter to go on the field. The officials blew this one up as someone else said with the Bernard play. All that being said, Lewis should be fired. But because he's stuck in neutral, not for losing control of his team.
Ghost said:Context? What's that showing us? * Edit - Okay, looked it up...lolol Steelers get cut a lot of slack by the officials.
Point being, two instances of out if control asst coaches on the steelers. If Lewis should be let go for not having his players under control (2 of them), the Tomlin should be let go for not having his assts under control, which IMO is worse.
Briancuse said:People are talking about Lewis losing his job because he is 0-7 in the playoffs, and this pattern of behavior is typical for the Bengals, its never been a problem with the Steelers before.
