Overall, Ben has been pretty piss poor.

Shitty throws. This team cannot win when Ben sucks balls

Gotta go for it. Also, five wide has been awful. Haven’t attacked middle of the field because the ball has come out quick.

Damn Fichtner for calling that “Ben eyefuck Brown so as to draw double coverage” pass play.

MAN he sucks!

Ben playing like he doesn't want to get hit.

The Ben-AB combo has been miserable this half...appears to be mostly Ben missing throws

Yeah...Connor forced Ben to throw behind him.

What a loser!

We throw to crowded areas, we don't use any crossing routes with our speed guys. We have to be one of the easier teams to read,

Ben hasn't been good enough, plain and simple. He has to be able to put up 30.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

Bitch decision by Tomlin. Five minute driver to create a two score game. Blown timeout will come back to bite us in the ass.

I don't understand the playcall there on 3rd. Both Brown and Vance slanting to the middle. Same area of field.

Either someone made a mistake or that is a SHIT play design which doesn't maximize the field.

What’s good about this offense right now?

Any presnap movement? Any misdirection? Anything worth a fuck? Our only TD was a broken play with the best WR in football making a contested catch.

Yeah, awesome offense he’s calling.

Another Vet day off coming.....
Anybody ever see him throw on the sidelines during a game....?
Especially when he is off.

Odd considering they've kept him clean for the most part. Usually doesn't get antsy unless he's getting the shit beat out of him

Sucks when you know you're getting out coached before the game even starts.

OK jeems -- I think we get your point -- you believe our HOF QB totally sucks -- we get it

I question the play call
