Ben....the easy scapegoat.

They sure do not seem very friendly to the Steelers' offense.
You got a point there. When you suck you suck. Ben has been battered. I was just watching the James Harrison bio and I remember how abruptly everything changed.
 
Nobody on this board wants to see Ben go out this way after a great career here. I was hoping if he came back for his 18th season it would be handled similar to how Elway and Manning went out at the end of their Careers. Strong running game behind a solid OL where they didn’t have to carry their team any longer. The Broncos relied on the experience they had and didn’t make them put the ball up 40 to 50 times per game. Heavy running teams, plenty of play action, control the game clock. And both teams had strong defenses too.
What we’ve done to Ben is put him behind an inexperienced OL that’s getting him beat the hell out of and telling him to throw 50-60 passes per game. The man is scared to death back there and afraid of getting seriously injured so he’s dumping the ball off on the first read. Whose ****** up idea was it to think that this plan could have worked?
Meanwhile goofy Tomlin refuses to even play Watt at FB to help create a seam for Najee.
I feel bad for Ben that he’s been put in this situation. The man is slow, can’t escape the rush eluding tackles like in his younger years, does not have the same accuracy he once had to be throwing the ball as much as he has. He should be behind a solid OL at this stage of his career, not a bunch of green kids, a journeyman who stinks and Chucks who should be on the bench. Shameful’
Ya if anything Ben’s been set up to fail… management can’t be that thick that they didn’t see this coming… geez us… line suks, no running game… juju has become a shell of himself, 11 drops from the receiver… *** I’d run those wrs till the tongues hung out in practice there is no excuse! I figure Ben has till the break to turn this around… hopefully he can pull us out of the fire… if not I’d sign Tim Tebow off waivers and I would run fullback traps qbs sweeps rest of the season! See if this line can learn to block and listen to everyone ***** about Tebow! Give us something to do! LoL

Desperate times bring desperate measures. BUSH would have to be restrained.
