God I hope Ben finds Claypool deep at least once in this game. If he connects on anything over 40 yards, I'm so going back to their site to see their reactions, lol!
 
hahahaha....They don't like you over there SLASH...

You know at the start of the year Ben didn't connect on several deep throws & I got a feeling that has deterred him from calling the usual amount. Personally, I would rather him set them up for the deep ball than force the issue as has been his past tendency.

Let er rip againt the Titans Ben

They settled down after they realized their insults weren't getting to me. I was pretty cool to them until they weren't... then I said hell with it I will **** with them. When the one said Ben's arm was shot I knew it was time to ramp it up.
 
Maybe its unfair of me and maybe I'm incorrect, but I feel like people who overly quantify the game with metrics and I know this applies to some of you, but overly quantify fantasy football. I feel like those people have never really had anything to do with blood and guts football and what winning is really about. Its not ****** Madden and its not fantasy or power rankings. I helped a kid off the field Friday who has a full scholarship next year and injured his knee possibly badly. Looked at the fear and uncertainty in his eyes. Saw the rest of the team rally without its best player and WIN. This game is not won by downfield passing metrics. Its won by the team that puts the sum of its parts together the best AND WILL NOT BLINK. And if you have never won a championship it is twice as hard not to blink. I said from early on Ben needs to throw about 200-250 a game and substantially more TD's than INTs. I stand by that.

Titan fans went to **** last year... it was like not being a bottom dwelling **** team for once recharged the douchbag batteries in their fanbase... that fanbase started out being mostly Steelers fans but by the early 2000’s there were so many jagoffs... sad really...

And Bens arm isn’t shot... people forget that

A. He basically didn't play last year
B. The deep game takes timing
C. There was no real preseason
D. The Wr corps is still extremely young

On top of that teams are still actively trying to take away the deep pass vs ben... its the Patriots plan from a few years back that has been copied across the league...

As Ben continues to actually take the short stuff and the run game produces teams will start playing up and then we will see how done Bens arm is...
 
GREAT representation slash, everyone here at STEELERNATION.com should be proud of you. BEN's arm is NOT shot and at least he isn't drinking TB12 publicly anyways........


JUST reading that board as little as I did and realizing it is ONLY a small sample size I can still majoritorize that this site here STEELERNATION.com is way ahead of the game.




Salute the nation

Good work Slash, but 73 posts on a Titan's board? Where can we see your work on say a Ravens board?

Anyone who has seen Ben go deep or zip throws to the sideline knows his arm is fine.

This year Ben is getting the ball out quickly, and the results have been excellent.

11 TD's
1 INT
69.1% completions
A passer rating of 109.1%
and Quarterback of a 5-0 team.

Those are the stats that matter.
 
Those idiots wouldn't last a day in this forum, lol. What a bunch of morons.
 
Meh titans fans are still lightyears ahead of Pats fans and those whacks on gobungholes...

I like the Houston Oilers fans a bit better, just saying.

I hate to agree with Coach, but that's your argument.

His arm is plenty strong enough to throw deep. If they challenge you, find links on NFL.com and show them his deep passes this year.

Fact is, we all always complained about how long Ben held the ball. He gets rid of it sooner now.
We all always complained about Brady destroying us with dink n' dunk. We're doing that a little more often now, using the pass as a run.
Ben's maturing. Took damned long enough...but now instead of forcing the homerun, he's more often taking what the defense is giving him underneath.

Ben's just a better QB. Arm's still fine, but making better decisions.

*****Now Ben...I just knocked on wood, do NOT go out there today and make me a liar and throw dumbass picks today

Had trouble sleeping I usually don't venture over to message boards.
 
Where do you find the time SLASH to respond to that stuff

I had a rough day yesterday which continued into night. usually don't have the time but off this week. Was interesting seeing others viewpoints on Ben.as well as their take on their team.
 
Whoops, be careful that was 2018. My browser is messed up and not letting me use NextGen stats well. If you can get there, find charts, go to passing, find Ben and see if you can get 2020 to display.
 
Newly created thread there.

Hey guys, just my overall thoughts on what led to the loss today. As always, I'd love to hear your feedback.

You let a game managing QB with a shot arm beat you.
 
^^^Hahahaha
