Antonio Brown posts facebook live catches Tomlin calling Patriots Assholes

[jack keenan]

Can someone Photoshop Tomlins face on the mountain for old times sake?

 

[meatface]

Seriously, who cares? It would be weird if Tomlin didnt

In fairness to Antonio Brown, I don't think he was paying attention to what was being said. He was to busy being in awe of himself....

That video is so pathetic it's actually kind of funny.

Social media has been out for a number of years, with plenty of stories of people getting in trouble, yet there are millions eager to be the next victim.

That's nice. But the damage has been done. People keep saying it doesn't matter but I'm afraid it does. It's a distraction. Any team that is undisciplined as that team is, any distraction is harmful in one way or another. He violated a trust. That doesn't just go away in 5 days.

That team needs just about everything to break right for them and this is a dent in that and the game hasn't been played yet.

@SVN--the team needs you again. Pass the message around to your media buddies on the twitter machine. Seeing Brown's generic, ******** apology destroyed by public knowledge that he was getting PAID to use facebook live would be yet another welcome distraction.

 

[supafly]

That's nice.

Apparently, his apology isn't even really "nice," but just a ******** lie if the article from Fortune 500 is true and facebook live is really paying him.

What an ass, even with all of that talent.

Well. the Patriots are assholes. So that is the truth.

Listening to Tomlin respond to the media, he's full of so much bluster and BS. The comments about players bouncing from team to team. AB's been on his team for SEVEN YEARS, they kept him over Wallace and Sanders, he's one of the hardest workers on the team, there's no way in hell Tomlin would even consider letting him go because another team would gobble him up in a heartbeat. He's full of it "We have a policy" haha.

Nice to know that.

It can be a distraction or it can bring the team together with all the criticism coming from outside. You never know. They had the joey porter thing going last week and still managed to play well on defense. Granted he isnt as important as brown ,but i doubt this will break them or hurt them with the AFCCG. They will be ready to play and maybe even a more motivated brown to prove something esp when tomlin today said that such players end up on other teams.

Their D didn't play as good as people think. Wide open receivers were missed and massive (easy) drops that would have put KC is great position. Plus some mind numbing decisions on D by KC.

Of course the game must be played on Sunday night, but Tomlin's words resonated throughout NEs locker room & added a bit more fuel to the fire.

Some Anonymous Patriots Sound Pretty Ticked Off About Mike Tomlin’s Comments

This is EXACTLY what we want!!!

 

[RecoveringCowboy]

It's Tomlin's fault, there's no policy, they talk trash now he wants them to shut up. He's a cheerleader in a frat house, AB was just having some fun in the environment his coach established.

Someone on this thread likened Tomlin to Barry Switzer. Both coaches inherited an excellent team and 'drove the bus' to a SB victory. Then they faded. Think Switzer is more of a joke than Tomlin, however.

Julian Edelman, to Steelers reporters, on his Antonio Brown-related comments:

 

[Todd Bradley]

I love the fact that an absolute non-story has blown into an unnecessary distraction to the opposing team finally for once...

I hope the media keeps talking about this for another four days. Only helps us and hurts them.

It has also become unwanted stuff for us to keep answering for comparisons. Edelman's very benign response was turned into a story which he had to explain today. I just hope BB isnt a hard ass and sits him for the first series or something.

Edelman's "crime" was a misunderstood half-sentence. Welker's was a pre-planned comedy routine that went on quite a while
