Roethlisberger ‘Disappointed’ in AB

You know damn well Haley will throw it 40 times.

My thoughts exactly. Whatever the opposing defense's weakness is, best believe Haley is the only OC in the league who will intentionally go out of his way to NOT exploit it, but rather play directly to their strength to catch them off guard. I'm already expecting it so that I won't be disappointed when it inevitably happens
 
I fully understand that it is kinda the Pittsburgh Media's job to ask questions, but I kinda feel like they really like to stir up some controversy where it isn't needed. Anyone who has ever played football knows what AB is like. Probably an ok guy, but he is a wr. diva. so they go to Ben and Tomlin to try to get the goods. For their part Ben and Tomlin should have simply said that is football man. Lots of passion.
 
Actually i think Tomlin handled it better then Ben. Everything Ben said should have been and hopefully was said directly to Brown airing it out to the media wasnt necessary.

Perhaps saying it directly to AB has not worked in the past. When things get aired in public, AB always responds with an apology and corrects the situation (as in the Facebook incident). Maybe Ben knows that this approach works better.

Ben has always protected his teammates to a fault (his praising of a ****** OLine in the past was nauseating). People have bashed Peyton Manning for his criticism of team mates, but sometimes it works. Bravo Ben.
 
Haley will call 38 consecutive passes to Antonio and Abtonio will ONLY DROP ONE>>!!!!!


I've said in the past that it always seems that Haley tends to take us towards their stregnth. Now mixing it up some,.... I get that. This game should be about 60% run and James Conner should see 8-16 carries. The other RB (can't think of his name ??) should get 4 carries. Bell should not exceed 30 carries. We can win this game pretty handily if we throw in the play action pass.




Salute the nation

I think it was Dulac that said AB is know for his apologies on Monday mornings through the course of the season. He makes his rounds to everyone. Yeah. I'm sure it is all good now. Well for this week anyways.
