About game management? Definately!!! Handling assclowns? Nope he does just fine. His response to Bradshaw was brilliant and hilarious .

Pretty lame of Bradshaw to begin with, Tomlin did just fine. I'm not even that big of a Tomlin fan, but he didn't say anything wrong.

The only one who looked bad with this whole ordeal was Bradshaw. It was really unprovoked and no reason for that type of comment to begin with.

Every coach has certain flaws but both these men are A level coaches. Tomlin hasnt had a losing season since he was hired, and has been to 2 superbowls (winning 1). Knoll is a great coach with 4 superbowls but he also benefited from lack of free agency. Look at how many steelers have left from their superbowl teams, if they kept them it would be scary.


Wallace, brown and sanders is pretty dang scary of you add Bell to the mix

Just like you can not compare players from different eras, you can not compare coaches.  The NFL is a different beast today.  The Media is different. Chuck Noll did not have the internet, Twitter, ESPN, 24 hour sports channels, cell phones, concerns over player safety or drug abuse.  Maybe Hugh should think about that before he wants to tell a coach how to act.  Maybe the media should just report the news and not try to make it.   Bradshaw was wrong.  Conrad is wrong.  Tomlin handled it as well as possible.
