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

For all we know maybe Brown had reached his boiling point with Ben inaccuracies after playing with it and watching film of it the first four games.

He didn't just play ****** yesterday. I'd argue he hasn't played well all year. He's at his best this year when he drops and throws. When he tries to buy time he's making mistakes. The end is not far away. You can see the regression in his play making skills or lack thereof. He's better than the 2 bums on the depth chart behind him, no argument there. But his best days are behind him. We need to build game plans that protect him and run the ******* wheels off Bell. Reality is a *****.
 
First Take just called Ben "Big Bum". Really? Future HoFer, 2X super bowl winner is a "bum"?

They would never call Manning or Brady or even Brees a "bum". ******* ********.
 
Ben's wife should do like Cap Rooney' wife in Any Given Sunday

55 times ?? Was the gameplan or was the gameplan changed due to circumstance. And again how many were plays were changed due to the look the QB got at the line.

Well, first and goal play action to Nix was part of the game plan. How well did that work out? Why is that play even in the playbook? It's not going to fool anyone. I'd rather take my chances slamming Bell straight ahead 4 times than that dumb *** play.

Still no explanation of Capt. Cool Shades 2 challenges. Neither one was close and NEVER should have been challenged.

The challenges were dumb but had no impact on the game none. They were desperate challenges. But didn't have impact on the game.

You are barking up the wrong tree as far as offensive identity. I hate shotgun empty and i especially hate it down by the goalline. But we do it because our QB likes it. No other reason our QB likes it.
 
Juju actually saw more snaps than Bryant did yesterday.

I'm sorry but that's not smart. Bryant has been off the field for a combined 65 snaps in three weeks. There isn't another team in this league who does that to a #1-#2 WR on their roster.

So bums like Nix, Finney, and McDonald can play.

Eli doesn't play anymore.

Like I've told people since Haley got here, we run his garbage KC Chiefs playbook.

And it shows.

Anything to absolve Tomlin and Co. from any responsibility or accountability what so ever. Color me shocked.
 
while we are stuck in the mud with a handful of plays they run over and over our opponent next week was running 5 wide and tearing up the field with real screen passes

KC stole my offense
 
Haley lined Nix up as a WR. The things we do on O and D just make no ******* sense. If we lose next week, I would have no problem firing one of the two coordinators and honestly, that should happen.

I think the more accurate analogy is that we inherited KC's old **** offense from Haley.

D has improved, although the run D needs some work. That wouldn't be who I targeted.


Haley or the WR coach gets my top billing.


One plans on retiring after the season anyways, and the other I have seen enough to wish for his exit one way or another.

Sorry. Bryant should be getting less snaps. He was getting single coverage and couldn't shake his guy loose. They resorted to screens and one yard drags to get him the ball in this past game. Which is not his game. His almost 2 yr layoff from the game is having a big effect on his performance.

With nobody impressing on the outside opposite AB, why not bring back Hamilton?
 
I think firing Haley would send a jolt to the offense, and it may be the right move.

But we still need better execution from Ben. And I'm not sure if Ben is willing to adjust to a new coordinator at this point in his career.

For example, a new OC may be smart enough not to throw 8 screens during a game; however, would Ben still audible into 5 wide when we are on the 3 yard line?

So explain why Toddy took him off the field on 4th down in Denver in the playoffs so Jesse James, with his 1 catch and three yards in the previous month could be the #1 option on the play?

Just another example of Haley getting cute. Has nothing to do with rust, layoffs, etc.

I've never seen a more talented Steelers team get held back by an their coordinators like this one is.
