Antonio Brown posts facebook live catches Tomlin calling Patriots Assholes

[Patsfanin Philly]

By going to Atlanta, Goodell has boxed himself in. Can't go to Atlanta on back-to back weekends, and at the same time avoiding the place he Least wants go to in North America.

They will sneak him into the owners box and not show him on the jumbotron...........

Is anyone surprised Joey Porter in the middle of that scrum? Can't stand that POS

I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that clip. Um, didn't they just let you back on the team after deciding that the "charges against you" weren't so bad (not dropped, mind you)? What a freakin' thug with no self-control and no self-awareness. His keys to the facility would have been confiscated and he would have been left on the side of Rte. 1 by the team bus as a distraction BEFORE the game if he was a coach on the Pats.

Lets hope the general mayhem and tomfoolery continues for the Steelers this week and that they come out totally unprepared against the Pats.

If Kraft had any balls (which he doesn't), he'd say no to this. On the other hand, it's pretty funny that you have to sneak into the premiere game of the league you run under armed guard and make sure that nobody sees you.

I really hate Tomlin and can't wait until we beat him and the Steelers!!!!

If Kraft had the fortitude (or balls) he would take a step back and make Goodell hand the Lombardi Trophy to BB or TB12 on February 5th. Screw convention. The Patriots have defied convention and "shattered the ceiling" of what people hold as a standard of excellence. Why stop now.
"Roger Dodger" is a perfect name for that weasel.

You're right. There is nothing wrong with what Tomlin said except his facts..

The Steelers didn't "SPOT" the Patriots a Day and a Half. The Patriots EARNED that by virtue of beating punk ass teams like the Steelers during the Regular Season. Also, it's not like the Steelers had any control of the weather (the reason for the game being pushed back).

With Antonio Brown posting it to Facebook Live, it already isn't taking a low profile.

The ONLY thing that the Steelers had a choice with is that they were getting back at 4 am Monday Morning. That's on the Steelers. They could have flown back this morning instead, letting the players rest in the hotel rooms..

This is correct. You want to cut your travel time? Get home team advantage. You know, the Pats have done better with HFA... I'd expect the Stillers to as well, of course the sample size is much smaller

All else aside, they are an inspiration for the end of my life, when - unless Brady is actually a robot - I will have to root for a resurgent dynasty (unless of course this one just goes unabated for three decades or so)... they actually got back to relevance decades after their glory days in the 70s. Good for them. Similar to the Pack of the 60s being resurrected with Favrevruh and now Rogers. Good for them too.

But this year's Stillers are complaining about conditions in advance of the game. I do not know whether I've ever seen the Patriots complain about "spotting" an opponent a few days, a few draft picks, etc. Not from the official podium speakers.

Aside from the "bad form" and "creating distractions" issue, it puts you in the mind-set of having an excuse if you lose. Ah we're all set with our pre-scuse. The odds were overwhelming, etc.

You have created 2 narratives:
1) We overcame monumental odds, and
2) Nobody could expect us to win anyway.... we should get credit for even getting close. And then we can claim the Patriots cheated somehow, because, the Patriots.

Go ahead, have your players walk around with those two narratives in their minds all week.

I'd prefer
(1) Must Win.
(2) See (1).

 

[long distance]

Yeah but not in terms of how wounded samurai pride the Pats are gonna get over it.

It's mostly just really embarrassing to Pittsburgh and reveals what a colossal idiot Brown is.

Unfortunately AB is not mature enough yet to qualify for an idiot.

 

[AtomicDawg]

Yep.

 

[ALP]

Yep.

yeah...no kidding

 

[borisman]

This hypocrisy is what bothers me .If BB was caught doing this he would be labeled an arrogant jerk. But tomlin is just trying to fire up his team.

 

[Keyser Söze]

Imagine BB crying over getting a late start to the game? Good god how pathetic.

 

[jimnance]

I don't have much problem with what tomlin said behind closed doors thinking only his team was going to hear it.

Tomlin's gotta be pretty angry at brown, who filmed him w/o his knowledge and obviously wasn't listening to his hc's message of " keep your mouth shut" and "keep a low profile".

Tomlin's whole point was don't give Pats any board material and don't create any distractions. Brown blew both of those up. Advantage Pats lol.

 

[70Dart]

Tomlin Starts around 2:10 "When you get to this point in the journey, not a lot needs to be said,” said Tomlin. “Let’s say very little moving forward. Let’s start our preparations. We spotted those assholes a day and a half. They played yesterday. Our game got moved to tonight. We gonna touch down at 4 o’clock in the ****ing morning. So be it. We’ll be ready for that ass. But you ain’t gotta tell them we coming. Because some of us might not like the damn (woofkisses?) The chest pounding. Keep a low profile.”

It makes me giggle that Tomlin is telling his guys to shut up and not talk smack to give the Pats ammunition, yet here he is, giving them ammunition. lmao Honestly, you can't make this stuff up..lmao

Imagine BB crying over getting a late start to the game? Good god how pathetic.

But the first thing tomlin will say tomorrow is "We dont make excuses" or "We are transparent" in some fiery mode

 

[mosey threetupu]

Haven't read the whole thread yet but the take away here to me is that he's already making excuses for losing saying the Pats have a day and a half head start on them. Not sure if I'd normally come to that conclusion but it is Tomlin and the Steelers.

NFLN ,peter schrager - "League did them no favors with moving the game to sunday night, they are short changed but this motivates them to go into foxboro and beat the patriots.Forget about the mike tomlin and antonio brown video and all that. He is firing up his team and motivating his team to into foxboro and beat them"

 

[Patsfanin Philly]

If the Squealers wanted the extra day, they could have earned it by earning the best record.
Why shouldn't the Pats have advantages because of their in season superior W/L record?

Actually it's the league that schedules it. Falcons were #2 seed but played Saturday and Cowboys as #1 played Sunday. League puts Sat night prime time the game they think will be most popular and those were the gentlemen from Foxboro... He ought to direct his anger at 345 Park Ave......

Yeah, going to the SB is not enough motivation.

 

[PatsWickedPissah]

Point being...if the Squealers had wreaked havoc beating the Pats and finishing with a 14-2 record, their game woulda been Saturday night.

 

[Patstopia]

Oh my.....

I never heard such language.
