Any legit coach has got to be looking at the Ravens/Giants before ever considering us.

If he does, he is a no brainer for us to at least inquire about. He jumped to the top of the list for me, his name alone would entice most coordinators and players to want to come to this franchise. Draft capital, available money and the number one pick are a bright red cherry on top.
I’d definitely ask but I’d be surprised if he doesn’t take a sabbatical. In any case, do you see him wanting to coach twice a year against his brother?

I can see him taking the Giants job if he wants to coach right away.

I hope not. I love the mediocre seasons they've had since Ben retired. There is no team I despise more.... or love to see lose more than the Steelers. :grin:

Maybe Harbaugh and Tomlin just swap jobs.

If I had a chance to coach twice a year vs my brother I’d jump at it. I would think you’d want a coach that has that competitive nature.
You may be right about a year off but he’s not getting any younger.

Unfortunately they do not have a QB capable of winning a super bowl.

I would agree. Ravens for obvious reasons and the Giants actually have quite a few pieces to work with. Taking the blinders off for a second, the only thing this team has going for it is the 1st overall and a ton of cap space. The problem is, is any worthwhile fa going to want to come here especially if he has better options. Until the soap opera of a franchise gets rid of its rep, I don't see this franchise as a destination for top tier talent right now

I hate the Steelers more that our division opponents. The missed FG Sunday night was sickening. I hate the f[raiders_icon]cking Steelers too. Go Houston!!

The Steelers and it’s not close. My sister in law called Sunday night bragging and of course bringing up how dysfunctional we are.
I can’t stand the twat, don’t care how hot she is.

Steelers fans are why I hate the team. I live in Browns/Steelers country. Steelers fans are worst, most arrogant, entitled bunch of assholes. It's great to see them living on the same ground most other NFL fans live on. I hope they have the same misery that the Browns have lived for the last 40 years. :grin:
