Interesting pattern:

Arians: yinzers wanted him gone.
Haley: high level complaining about him. Perhaps some have wanted him to be fired?
Lebeau: Yinzers are glad to see him leaving.

How was his performance when it mattered? As good as the Steelers second rate DBs?

I can't believe he didn't score any runs facing the pitcher who would put on the greatest performance in postseason history.

2.21 ERA in August, 2.38 ERA in September/October when the Pirates were charging to make the playoffs. Or are we defining "when it mattered" to be "games when he didn't pitch well, and only when he didn't pitch well"?

You seem like someone who would cast your Cy Young vote based on the pitchers record.

I'm unsure how to feel about this Lebeau situation. On one hand, I feel like it might be time for a change... But on the other hand, personnel was probably a bigger issue than anything he waa doing, thanks to bad drafting and FA signings... And the grass isn't always greener.

Also wonder if his loyalty to guys like Polamalu and Taylor was affecting decisions or if that was Tomlin.
