We're gonna "be aggressive these last 5 games". No wait, "our playoff run starts now". Oh, now I remember, "We're gonna get back in the lab and fix some things". "Unleash Hell?"

Can anyone remind me what this team does well? There is talent all over the field. What the hell is going on?

Do we..A) need to go back to the drawing board

              B) need to take one play and one game at a time

              C) give 110%

              D) or some other bs

I did not expect the Steelers to repeat. Especially without Troy. But how do you explain this slide? I can't take any more Tomlin-isms. They sound great, but just words. Defense did it's job for most of the game. Offense didn't put up many points despite all those possessions. The Jeff Reed 53 yd attempt was suspect. I say run the offense through Mendy before we go to the no rhythm backyard football routine.  

Is he a great coach? Clearly, he is articulate and always says exactly the right thing. He has a commanding presence, no doubt. And, it's plain to see that he is well liked by everyone around him. But, let's isolate coaching. The things that matter on the field. The leadership, coaching, preparation, and decision making that affects wins and losses.

The organization gave him some great talent to work with (and some not so great, to be fair). He also has Dick LeBeau. 

What do you think?

In that situation, a critical 3rd and 2, is it a great idea to call a play where the back has to run 3-5 yds laterally before turning upfield for 2 yds? From my point of view (the sofa), I would prefer a play that attacks the defense.

What call would you prefer in that situation? I am not ripping Arians or anyone else. But with weapons like Heath, Hines, 'Ton, Moore, etc. is that the play you want?
