"Maybe Mike Tomlin should have taken more control of discipline to limit the distractions, instead of fueling the fire by talking about Round 2 rematches with the Patriots*. Maybe Tomlin should have taken blame for the play-calling in the final minutes against the Patriots* and Jaguars."

"Maybe a season that started with Super Bowl-or-bust bravado but ended with a playoff loss at home two games shy of the Super Bowl makes us wonder what was real and what was merely a mirage."

"When you lose, you leave a lot of maybes. When you win, you remove all doubt. Maybe this season of maybes will teach the Steelers a lesson."

These 3 maybes stick out to me but # 3 most. I don't think it did because Porter and Lake are still here.

Cold hard truths Todd Haley was the OC, the offense didn't play up to their potential, he is a bad in game play caller, he's a natural asshat, he got the job because of who is dad was to the Steelers.

Defense lost one and still missing a few pieces, defense looked better then they actually were, faced a few back up QBs and a few sorry offenses, need a FS who can anticipate where the QB throws on passing downs.

here is to the draft falling to the Steelers needs.
