All good points Sask, just wanted to point out an observation on your offensive comments. All the issues appears to be on Ben. The fumble, the pick, hanging JuJu out on the underneath. I haven’t seen Ben play as bad as he has, even when he’s thrown 4 picks in a game. His INT was unexplainable, you are right, brain dead play there. Also the JuJu play, he had Washington sprinting wide open behind JuJu.The up back already bailed to JuJu before the pass. Had he threw it Washington it was probably a TD. The snap fumble, possibly DeCastro fast pull interrupted Ben’s snap/turn execution. IDK, but he was deep in his own territory. QB has to be situationally aware in that instance.
Second half he was somewhat better, because of Snell’s hard efforts. But it’s obvious he doesn’t have time like he has used to. He also doesn’t step into his passes like he used to. So it’s has to be his knees or he isn’t practicing enough.
The only problem with the D I see is the amount of snaps they are seeing, their health at ILB, plus you have a rookie OLB learning on the fly.

He RARELY has a nice clean big pocket. It’s a closing clamshell at the snap. How do you really step into a throw when you’re packed in like a sardine.
