Flores a coach again.

[Guts]

Good for him

Going out on a limb I'm guessing Rooney & Ross won’t be seated next to each other at the next owners meetings

 

[raduray]

Rooney walking the talk.

Hate to say it, but this is a tremendous move by the Steelers and makes them even more dangerous. Tomlin's a fiery guy as it is and now you add in someone like Flores, who is intense himself and really does a great job with the players, and that makes them a tremendously formidable pair.

Great move for the Steelers, who are going to be in transition this offseason and it should be interesting to see what they do at QB.

So Bill didn't want to rehire him?

So Bill didn't want to rehire him?

My guess he was fed up with Bill after the text mishap.

 

[Froob]

Dang, glad for him but wish it was us

 

[Captain Cliche]

Respect to the steelers.

So this said he was available. Not even as a DC. Did Bill not want him, or did Kraft **** out again?

devils advocate
but if any of the stories are true it might a ticking time bomb ready to implode the steelers.

I'm no expert on legal matters but isn't this a conflict of interest since BL's lawsuit is still active? Hopefully someone with a legal background could answer that question here.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Good hiring but Steelers have quite some holes defensively and aging as well. 20th in ppg last year, worst run d. Hes got his work cut out. With all their offensive needs hard to see much improvement personnel wise.

 

[JayNM]

Not surprised at all

Steelers have excellent management. They care from top to bottom

Wouldnt be crazy to associate this to a Future HC there or somewhere else

Why would Bill want to hire Flores? He’s got the perfect setup already where he gets all the credit when the defense plays well and his son gets all the blame when it doesn’t.

I think these are the reasons.

.Flores believes Bill influenced him losing the Giants job right or wrong.
. Suing the NFL for not following the Rooney rule, what better organization to join.
. You are on a predominantly black staff with also supports your race discrimination claim against other teams.
. Flores and Tomlin are both old school hard nose coaches.
. Flores loves football loves coaching and the Steelers are a historic franchise who win.
. Staying in the NFL is the best path to becoming a head coach again which is Brian’s goal.

Great move for him, great move for Pitt.
I will always respect Flores.
Malcom Go!

 

[Skyflarie]

I wish he was back here, but oh well. Wonder if he'll be able to ramp up that defense. Not looking forward to the Squeelers games now xD

 

[NormZauchin]

As a defensive assistant, Flores will be coached by Tomlin on the art of the sideline trip.

 

[captain stone]

Not a good look from Little Billy when he welcomes back ass-hole losers like Phatt Matt & the league's Worst WRs Coach of 2019 but alienates Brian Flores... Hope Jonathan's taking notes...

THEY
HAVE
NO
QB

And didn’t deserve to be a playoff team last year. Flores is a very good coach but they aren’t dangerous.

Kinda sad that he got knocked down not one, but two rungs on the coaching ladder. Still better than being completely shut out.
