I love Ben but I trust MM and his ability to develop a QB over a guy like Ben that never worked with a QB developer.
Ben relied on natural size and athleticism for his game, he was not the cerebral or perfect motion/mechanics guy. As variable as Ben’s skill set could be week to week he could have certainly benefited from a guy like MM taking him all the way back to basics. The difference between “good Ben” and “bad Ben” was extreme. Some weeks Ben would come out and the accuracy just wasn’t even close to being right…you could tell it would be a long day. That’s the coaching Allar is getting that Ben never got, so of course Ben doesn’t quite get what’s going on.
MM is simply trying to eliminate this extreme floor variant for Allar by fixing the basics.
What an indictment on PSU’s coaching staff though.
