Tomlin had to have signed off on it. If he had objected I doubt the Steelers ownership would have overruled him. I should have said Steeler's ownership and HC Mike Tomlin get it' . . . . . . . . .

And I agree - the Spanos will not fire Staley until the end of the season - and maybe not even then. This just illustrates the differences between the Steelers (a successful organization) and the Chargers ( NOT a successful organization) .

Then owners wanted him fired and you think Tomlin would of stopped it? I don't think so.

Broncos safety Kareem Jackson is going to serve a full four game suspension for a hit on Joshua Dobbs Sunday night after his appeal as denied. He was suspended four games earlier this season for a hit on Packers' TE Luke Musgrave, but it was cut to two games on appeal. He'll miss the game against the Chargers at SoFi.

Good thing, that guy is dangerous.

If Tomlin thought it was the wrong move or was unfair in some way - yes, he would have opposed the action, but he and Steeler ownership have been on the same page for years. No way this happens in that organization without his approval, or at least acceptance . . . . . . . . . .

Unfortunately he is scheduled to be back in time for our game AT denver.
F this guy.

This is crazy! Brees can’t throw with his right hand anymore because of the 2005 shoulder injury. Throwing the football properly takes a lot out of you anyways. But to think it came back after 18 years.

Brees signed with the New Orleans Saints in 2006 after the Miami Dolphins dropped out of the bidding over concerns about his shoulder.

Brees said that the Dolphins' medicals were right according to the "long-term prognosis" for his shoulder but that, with Andrews' guidance, he was able to do things in the short term to prolong his career.

It happens to a lot of QBs, injuries they suffered when they were young players that become disabling as they age after retirement. Joe Montana has talked about it a lot.

Chargers were right to move on, a miracle he came back for as long as he did. Brees owes Dr. Andrew's so much.

I have no idea about this entire Tomlin/Owner discussion thats being fabricated from whole cloth here in TPB. Acceptance is the opposite of approval but nobody knows and the theorizing throughout these pages is hilarious in the absence of any information.

Senior leadership decisions usually but not anlways involve some degree of discussion. Some are unanimous, some are consensus, some are just the top leader making a decision that he instructs be carried out by a leadership team. Their offense stinks, getting everyone to agree it stinks is hardly a dramatic bold demonstration of perpetual unity imo. Nobody has seen Tomlin ever take a “if I don’t agree, I’ll walk” position that I know of. I’m happy to read the examples that prove I’m wrong and there is no way anyone can be fired by the owner or GM without his full agreement. Feel free to post the first of these many examples … I’ll wait here.

Worst uni in the league

I watched part of the Boys-Skins game...the announcer quoted Dak as saying he's the most comfortable he's ever been in an offense the past several games...hmmm...throwing Moore under the bus?
