Whitlock and Carter were hoping and praying the Steelers would win simply because they hate to see New England continue this run. I can't take these guys seriously because their judgement is clouded by jealousy when it comes to the Patriots. How could anyone look at that Pittsburgh secondary and think they had a legitimate chance to control New England offense at Gillete?
No adjustments on D. Left no 15 open all day. They shud have pressed those average receivers. No pressure on the QB. No hands receivers. Antonio locked down. Yes, the coaches are to blame here.
Pearl Harbor you're exactly right! Last time steelers played pressed coverage against the patriots it was successful. Also, imo each player on defense was trying to do someone else's job instead of their own!
Ben Roethlisberger did not play very well the second half of the season and I'm tired of seeing Mike Tomlin out coach by Bill Belichick every single time
Greg Tucker Tomlin has NEVER been a genius mind like bill. He is a players coach. A good guy. Good at motivating his players and keeping them in line. But he is not a great football mind in the way that the greats are. He isn't the type to make the crucial adjustments mid game that make the difference.
Glad to see Colin working with Richie. He really shredded him in "Bullygate." Carter on the other hand backed Richie up and said there was more to the story.
Steelers aren't equipped to compete against a well prepared team and it starts with Tomlin. Maybe they'll punch through again when Brady retires and if the Raiders with David Carr don't replace the Pats as the elite team in the AFC.
Pats never take a Sunday off. They don't get ready, they stay ready!! They scheme like no other team!! If you don't prepare for every offensive person on their roster, you are in trouble!
Belichek still seems to be the only coach that schemes with the strengths and weaknesses of both his team and the opponent they'll be facing. After all these years of success, it seems that some of these other coaches would stop falling in love with their dry erase boards and approach each game the way Belichek does.
Bre Positive Only team that can ever really hang with the Pats come playoffs is the Ravens with Ray Lewis and Ed Reed. Because they studied the game just like him and Brady did. It was like a chess match every time Loved it.
Steelers defense got exposed, overall I think the Steelers did well this season. Midway through the season I didn't even think we would make the playoffs.
its not excuse of hurting. Steelers needed Bell to compete. At least a chance to beat NE. He could have milk the clock. NE is a better team with or withour Gronk. But Pitt needed Bell and Bryant
You'd think 2 former players would know better. The reason the 3rd & 1 pass play is criticized is not because of the play call itself. It worked to perfection. The criticism comes from people who watch who they put at WR to catch the pass. They put Sammy Coates out to catch it. Sammy Coates is a body catcher. He's not gonna make that catch. They should know their personnel better and put someone out there with better hands to catch the ball. As coaches you need to know these things and they either don't know or don't care. Either way it's bad coaching.
Not going to lie, Ben looks like he's on a pretty steep decline. Was throwing up some absolute ducks. There were definitely some drops, but he missed some throws badly.
TempeSoldier123 Certainly possible. He wasn't going to sit this one out, so you have to appreciate the effort, but it's unfortunate Pittsburgh wasn't at full strength. NE might be in for a wake up call when they play ATL, because the AFC hasn't provided much resistance.
About that flea-flicker. Watch that play again... Chris Hogan completely sold the run on that play which is why the safety and linebacker bit. He starts his route jogging, looking like he's not in the play so he's not going 100%. When the safety bites he kicks it into gear and blows by him. Hogan ran an amazing route which made that play work so well.
No disrespect but it seems like everybody has excuses for the coaching staff for the Pittsburgh Steelers and everybody wants to blame personnel now but I'm going to blame the coaching staff nobody wasn't saying that when they were winning nine, eight and a row. It's time for a change.
no one's to blame just fix grab that funky southpaw tebow outta baseball camp to back up Ben set him up w 2rbs& get back to good old fashioned steeler football
DeAngelo Williams has had success against the Pats in the past so don't go with the Le'Veon Bell injury excuse. And the Steelers zone blitz has never worked against Brady for 15 years so they finally went away from it...Oh what's that? They stuck with a plan that is proven to never work. The cheerleader never adjusts. So in that sense he did get exposed.
This topic is absurd. The Steelers go 11-5, get to the AFC championship, and lose to a team on the road that has consistently had their number since before Tomlin was even the coach. Could Tomlin have switched to a man coverage scheme? Yes. Did he. He actually did try, and they still got burnt. He also has this thing called a defensive coordinator. And even then, neither the D coordinator nor the head coach can make their players, specifically their secondary, play well beyond their means and abilities. Even if the Steelers were to have switched to man coverage scheme, they probably still would've gotten burned, since they tried it a few times and have up like 30 yards multiple times. When are the players accountable for their own missteps? Because schemes are great and all, but only if the players execute them correctly.
I am absolutly shocked that fs1 ever put incognito on tv....but he's actually competent (dare i say good) at it. Im just not sure if he will ever get a real media job when he is done
The patriots are just better point blank period without L.BELL the Steelers couldn't win that game. So its a personnel issue especially on the defensive side of the ball.
This is why I have started watching the NHL analytics play a part in all sports now it's unavoidable the Pats have mastered analytics hockey is to fast and a missed pass has to be adjusted to immediately the in front of the net deflection is only stopped by an athlete reacting to the play it's still the athlete that wins the game bellicheck is a computer an analytics genius but it lessens the athletes role saying all that go pats go
Tomlin sucks, he won coach of the year for what ? He had a ready made family so to speak, cowher already had built a super bowl team and all tomlin did was come in and pretty much let the team run all cowher's plays and they praised tomlin when he did absolutely nothing.
TOMLIN is a bum. he is an affirmative action hire. r ooney made it look like he was hired for his ability, but rooney hired him to be PC. tomlin was handed a championship team with many stars on it. he didn't have to do much
Tomlin didn't get exposed i think the Steelers are just overrated, the player from Buffalo said they dominated KC lol they won by 2 points and didn't score a TD and they scored 1 TD yesterday in garbage time so their offense isn't so high scoring like some people think and Ben is not that good in playoff games he has 23 ints & 24 TDs in his playoff career , so don't put it all on Tomlin the Steelers are just overrated
Richie Incognito really good at this
Pembrook Sutherland he's only good at being a racist meathead.
TempeSoldier123 oh look someone is triggered
I agree
Agree and I think Whitlock isnt too bad either
White Male Not surprising coming from you.
Richie Incognito was straight fire on today's show!! Richie and Steve Smith need to be on FS1 roster permanently #IceUpSon
There are only two " Killer Bees" Belichik, Brady. Bell, Ben and brown are " wanna bees"
bees are an endangered species
Lol. Well said
LMAO ! Guess the killer B's got stung by the real killer B's
lol.
Years later Brady is beating the pats with the bucs lololol sad pats fan. You’ll never win a game ever.
Whitlock and Carter were hoping and praying the Steelers would win simply because they hate to see New England continue this run. I can't take these guys seriously because their judgement is clouded by jealousy when it comes to the Patriots. How could anyone look at that Pittsburgh secondary and think they had a legitimate chance to control New England offense at Gillete?
Ya these two are idiots !
Tomlin sucks. Maybe he should have stuck his foot on the field and tried tripping some Pats players.
GHZoner lol tomlin is great
No adjustments on D. Left no 15 open all day. They shud have pressed those average receivers. No pressure on the QB. No hands receivers. Antonio locked down. Yes, the coaches are to blame here.
Pearl Harbor exactly......Cris won't ever say anything about Tomlin or any other media person......it's like he's untouchable.
Astrong417 preach it, it's SICKENING
Those receivers are not average.
Pearl Harbor you're exactly right!
Last time steelers played pressed coverage against the patriots it was successful. Also, imo each player on defense was trying to do someone else's job instead of their own!
Taba Allday They were confused. Steelers D couldn't handle the Patriots complex, no-huddle offense. Idk what they thought the Pats were gonna do....
their defense might work against matt moore and alex smith, but not against brady, they needed to changed their game plan against him.
Richie Incognito did a great job.....good to see he can put his personal views aside and dpeak facts......much respect Richie
ej jones yeah he is suprsingly really well spoken, and intelligent !
I don't think he is truly racist. I think he is just a loud mouth ball buster.
The game was over after the Steelers didn't punch it in on the 1.
Richie sounded knowledgeable
Ben Roethlisberger did not play very well the second half of the season and I'm tired of seeing Mike Tomlin out coach by Bill Belichick every single time
Greg Tucker wait it out and own the league
Greg Tucker Tomlin has NEVER been a genius mind like bill.
He is a players coach. A good guy. Good at motivating his players and keeping them in line.
But he is not a great football mind in the way that the greats are.
He isn't the type to make the crucial adjustments mid game that make the difference.
Glad to see Colin working with Richie. He really shredded him in "Bullygate." Carter on the other hand backed Richie up and said there was more to the story.
Steelers aren't equipped to compete against a well prepared team and it starts with Tomlin. Maybe they'll punch through again when Brady retires and if the Raiders with David Carr don't replace the Pats as the elite team in the AFC.
Whitlock is such a Patriot hater, he justifies the Steelers loss & not give NE credit for the win...lol...FOH!!!!!
Cowherd is a steelers hater as is Chris Carter so it evens out. Quit crying Patriots "fan".
Wow great job Richie Incognito. I really hope he keeps doing these shows, great insight and well spoken.
Tomlin schooled by the GOAT Coach as usual.
He didn't learn a thing... Probably skipped all his classes & got cheat sheets to pass. Not in the NFL.
Is Incognito just doing this during the off season? Smart move. He'll have a job when he retires.
Pats never take a Sunday off. They don't get ready, they stay ready!! They scheme like no other team!! If you don't prepare for every offensive person on their roster, you are in trouble!
Belichek still seems to be the only coach that schemes with the strengths and weaknesses of both his team and the opponent they'll be facing.

Bre Positive Only team that can ever really hang with the Pats come playoffs is the Ravens with Ray Lewis and Ed Reed.
Because they studied the game just like him and Brady did. It was like a chess match every time
Loved it.
Tomlin is a joke.Terry Bradshaw is right about Tomlin.
this is why i love havin players on these shows if richie and CC werent there those 2 woulda been way off analyzing what happened
for anyone mad about Richie Incognito being on here, I hope you also find Ray Lewis being in broadcasting more deplorable
Eraziels of course they won't because they're sensitive Hillary supporters
Eraziels nahh bro ray is black he good. if you don't like it your racist
Good point but logic doesn't work on trolls
Eraziels Why is Incognito here?? Dude's a straight up racists!!!
True. Althought I hate incognito but you're right.
Steelers defense got exposed, overall I think the Steelers did well this season. Midway through the season I didn't even think we would make the playoffs.
mlal89 They got caught trying to do more than what their job was.
pats didnt have gronk so stop making excuses that bell was hurt smh
The Jones steelers didn't have martavis Bryant
its not excuse of hurting. Steelers needed Bell to compete. At least a chance to beat NE. He could have milk the clock. NE is a better team with or withour Gronk. But Pitt needed Bell and Bryant
Mickey Tomlin = Exactly what Bradshaw said he is.
He looks so clueless out there when his "Game Plan" fails & he has no backup plan. Then there's the constantly making excuses even before they played.
Shiva Ho: Exactly. Tomlin is not a "great coach". Great coaches know how to adjust during a game, and never have excuses.
Good vid.
Excellent analysis.
Richie is on point here.I hope we see more of him in the future.
You'd think 2 former players would know better. The reason the 3rd & 1 pass play is criticized is not because of the play call itself. It worked to perfection. The criticism comes from people who watch who they put at WR to catch the pass. They put Sammy Coates out to catch it. Sammy Coates is a body catcher. He's not gonna make that catch.

Either way it's bad coaching.
this guy with the hat isn't very bright I think he just liked to pick against the Patriots
Richie is the man!
Cowherd's sideburns just got exposed!
One isn't remotely close to the other!
porterhouse omfg lmaooooo
The last four superbowls the winning teams had top defenses, so these teams paying top dollar for receivers are obviously doing it wrong.
agree w every word
Cris Carter keeps blaming players for poor technique....Isn't that a function of coaching?
Not going to lie, Ben looks like he's on a pretty steep decline. Was throwing up some absolute ducks. There were definitely some drops, but he missed some throws badly.
Pierre Conrad I think he was truly banged up. He's too clutch to play as badly as he did with it being more to it.
TempeSoldier123
Certainly possible. He wasn't going to sit this one out, so you have to appreciate the effort, but it's unfortunate Pittsburgh wasn't at full strength. NE might be in for a wake up call when they play ATL, because the AFC hasn't provided much resistance.
Pierre Conrad They got out coached and out played.
Tomlin is this generations George Seifert.
Nice work big Rich!
About that flea-flicker. Watch that play again... Chris Hogan completely sold the run on that play which is why the safety and linebacker bit. He starts his route jogging, looking like he's not in the play so he's not going 100%. When the safety bites he kicks it into gear and blows by him. Hogan ran an amazing route which made that play work so well.
Grumpy Santa it doesnt matter if he sold it
they shouldnt of bit on it because it wasnt their assignment
car9melo I'm not disagreeing with that... completely... just giving the man credit where it's due and overlooked in my opinion.
Compare Pittsburgh to how Houston defended Brady. Brady completed less than half of his passes and had pressure all game.
Bell was hurt in warm ups???
A coach should never say "we"
if you guys don't hire Richie when he retires you all should be fired. dude is killing it!!
I luv when these clowns back track after being so certain...."oh the ravens will go into foxboro...oh the Texans...oh kc...oh Deez nutz!!!!!!!
DA_ SUNTOUCHA wassup bro you call
bahahahhahahahaba
Ez Win for the Pats. Looking forward to a good game against the Falcons! Goodluck and may the best team win!
No disrespect but it seems like everybody has excuses for the coaching staff for the Pittsburgh Steelers and everybody wants to blame personnel now but I'm going to blame the coaching staff nobody wasn't saying that when they were winning nine, eight and a row. It's time for a change.
Chris Carter is masterful at breaking it down... and Incognito has a career after football, no doubt.
The problem with Tomlin is he is a chest bumping bruh, not a HC!
I skipped every idiot in this clip until Richie spoke. Next great TV man
ummm I didn't know Richie incognito........ what!? lol
no one's to blame just fix grab that funky southpaw tebow outta baseball camp to back up Ben set him up w 2rbs& get back to good old fashioned steeler football
Happy for Incognito. He came back a better player
"Players win games and Coaches lose them." Bill Belichick
DeAngelo Williams has had success against the Pats in the past so don't go with the Le'Veon Bell injury excuse.
And the Steelers zone blitz has never worked against Brady for 15 years so they finally went away from it...Oh what's that? They stuck with a plan that is proven to never work.
The cheerleader never adjusts. So in that sense he did get exposed.
really??? they hired that pos incognito???
the whole team is to blame they tried to play zone vs Brady and the o didn't do anything
Richie knows what he talking about
This topic is absurd. The Steelers go 11-5, get to the AFC championship, and lose to a team on the road that has consistently had their number since before Tomlin was even the coach. Could Tomlin have switched to a man coverage scheme? Yes. Did he. He actually did try, and they still got burnt. He also has this thing called a defensive coordinator. And even then, neither the D coordinator nor the head coach can make their players, specifically their secondary, play well beyond their means and abilities. Even if the Steelers were to have switched to man coverage scheme, they probably still would've gotten burned, since they tried it a few times and have up like 30 yards multiple times. When are the players accountable for their own missteps? Because schemes are great and all, but only if the players execute them correctly.
This comment aged badly.
Porky the pig...ooo i mean incognito...
I am absolutly shocked that fs1 ever put incognito on tv....but he's actually competent (dare i say good) at it. Im just not sure if he will ever get a real media job when he is done
How is Tomlin the blame for that loss??
Incognito has a future in TV
he really is...... incognito
why is corden here?
Incognito was sensational...
Go Bills, Richie IG was the best P/U Buffalo ever made, Pro Bowler, great guy and smart!!! Go Richie!!!
Incognito has to pursue T.V. after his NFL career. I think he would do well.
The patriots are just better point blank period without L.BELL the Steelers couldn't win that game. So its a personnel issue especially on the defensive side of the ball.
everyone was riding with steelers lol
Richie Incognito isn't stupid. It's a shame he has so many emotional problems.
notice how the two football players that actually know something about the sport School the two analyst
bell would not have made any difference they shut him down all game did you guys not see that
The Steeler have no defense
This is why I have started watching the NHL analytics play a part in all sports now it's unavoidable the Pats have mastered analytics hockey is to fast and a missed pass has to be adjusted to immediately the in front of the net deflection is only stopped by an athlete reacting to the play it's still the athlete that wins the game bellicheck is a computer an analytics genius but it lessens the athletes role saying all that go pats go
Man I can't stand Whitlock.
Brady eats Tomlin's stupid zone alive. NE a much better team. Steelers defense is below average.
Colin seems like he's starting to like the sound of himself a bit too much. Or, maybe it's been that way for a long time.
Jason Whitlock is such a passive aggressive hater lol
Tomlin sucks, he won coach of the year for what ? He had a ready made family so to speak, cowher already had built a super bowl team and all tomlin did was come in and pretty much let the team run all cowher's plays and they praised tomlin when he did absolutely nothing.
that's not Colin's real voice
TOMLIN is a bum. he is an affirmative action hire. r
ooney made it look like he was hired for his ability, but rooney hired him to be PC.
tomlin was handed a championship team with many stars on it. he didn't have to do much
Killer bee are extinct
Colin 4got when BALTIMORE BEAT THEM IN FOX
Can't blame coach t.you can only do so much against a cheating team.
Tomlin didn't get exposed i think the Steelers are just overrated, the player from Buffalo said they dominated KC lol they won by 2 points and didn't score a TD and they scored 1 TD yesterday in garbage time so their offense isn't so high scoring like some people think and Ben is not that good in playoff games he has 23 ints & 24 TDs in his playoff career , so don't put it all on Tomlin the Steelers are just overrated
Anderson Lee Tomlin repeatedly loses to lousy teams and NEVER EVER makes adjustments
steelers jokers
incognito a racist on tv wtf ... o yeah i forgot FOX .....
lmfao cry moar SJW
if he was a racist why is he getting along with the 2 other BLACK men on the show. lol
fauxbro1983 I agree, a real racist would try to hang them... Immediately.... Non-negotiable
hahaha fauxro1983 is a real smart one LMFAO
If he's showing that he's better now why does it matter if he made a mistake years ago
Steelers are the jokers of NFL ... FACT!
Cris carter sjw defend failure of tomlin coz hes a,black coach.even if he failed.lol
