"Maybe I don't have it anymore"-Ben

I agree he seems off, I think he needs to realize he doesn't have the mobility he once did. I also think there's no legit targets consistently open other than AB

Seems be partially that too. Eli Rogers needs to be active, put him back in the slot. If Martavis can't get open then put Juju in or vice versa until someone can separate.
 
We have no one that can get open down the middle of the foield. Jess James sucks balls and watching Kelce tonight makes me miss Heath more than ever.
 
I’m not buying it. The sky isn’t falling. I ripped him and the team in the game thread. Done that before and they have rebounded to prove themselves still a great team. I still think Tomlin is a **** coach, but better than 28 others in the league. I think Ben was just playing to all those comments he saw coming after INT number 3. He had a grossly horrible day. I guess it happens; fortunately it’s rare. I don’t think he believes that **** he said. Ben loves controversy and drama. This will, hopefully, get him fired up to right the ship. 🤞🤞

Being mediocre the first 4 games didn't do it, so yeah let us hope embracing the game 5 suck does it for him.
 
By going out and doing it. No one said we are going to score everytime. Punt and play field position. Defense will be more rested and hopefully make more plays. And hopefully we will wear teams down. Because right now all this shotgun finesse isnt working. Line up in the I formation and wear teams down

I'm sure it's Ben calling 15 fuckong screens a game.
 
When you hire garbage? You become garbage.

Ben's done with Haley. He tried to get Tomlin to put Haley in the coaches booth this season and that fell on deaf ears.

You don't hire golf coaches to run an NFL offense.

This scheme has sucked for four years.

And Haley believe it or not, is actually getting DUMBER.
 
I don't understand most were calling for Rodgers head now want him back out there? I thought it was a mistake sitting him in the first place, but what do i know.

I doubt Haley's game plan called for two pick-6's.


Some of you are doing some real mental gymnastics to shift blame. Hell, even Ben is doubting his abilities.
 
Hard to get in any kind of rhythm when the pieces keep changing.

His #3 WR is only out there because he BLOCKS better than #17.

And there it is the old Rhythm excuse
 
Brady seems to be doing just fine without Edelman and no gronk last game
 
I dont remember this rhythm excuse when we ran ran threw on third down and kordell threw a worm burner.

Kordell wasn't any good.
Brady may go down as the best ever, Ben did fine without AB at Denver in the playoffs when Bryant was Bryant and Coates could catch.

Don't worry you'll all be happy soon when Ben retires.

I think when you start thinking about retiring a part of you retires. That's what Ben looks like this year, partially retired.
If I were the Coaching staff, I'd tell Ben this week "it's yours". You call all the plays this week and we'll see how we do.
Might wake him up, incentivize him.

It was Ben totally off the cuff and joking, I heard the clip, did you?

BOTH pick 6's were off of tips.

Another pick was when the WR fell, another pick was after a penalty wiped out a TD.


The Steelers had a chance to take the lead and had 2nd and 3rd and goal from the 5.

Bell was lined up on the right as a WR on 2nd down.

Bell was lined up on the left as a WR on 3rd down.

Guess who was in the backfield as a RB?

Roosevelt Nix, who has a grand total of ZERO rushing attempts in three years.

And that was the formation Haley came up with, with a chance to take the lead.

Fire this clown, or send Ben to some team that appreciates QB talent.

It's time.

Art II killed Ben's career to hire this nut job.

Art II deserves the bashing for it.

It starts with the formations.

Haley wastes too many plays with his cute crap.

The other team watches film also.

Haley has to be in charge, that's why the no huddle has been scrapped except for obvious situations fot the most part since 2013 ended.

Ben got the credit, and that drove Coach Cuckold crazy.
 
In Bens last few years we need to go back to what he did his 1st few years. Ball control, great running safe passes and a lot of defense

You mean when they only scored 19 points and only won because Tampa's kicker couldn't kick?

When Bill O'Brien left they brought back Josh McDaniels who worked with Brady before.

The Steelers won 12 games back to back for only the 2nd time in team history and Rooney II hired a former's cronies kid, who's a mental case.

Actually that would mean coming out, throwing vertical early, getting leads by throwing, and then run the ball.

Haley actually tries to do it your way, and it fails.

He's too preoccupied with getting 25 rushing attempts before the 4th quarter because Bill Parcells told him that's what works.

The Steelers actually gave Kordell more leeway. They allowed Kordell, who couldn't pass gas, to be involved in the interview process for his OC after Gailey left.

Ben, after three trips to the SB and two rings, was given Todd Haley, and then was forbidden, after 8 years in the league, to change plays at the LOS.
