In all fairness he was very poorly used though. Lets not put this kid in space where he can actually use his amazing speed. No lets run him between the tackles and hope a strong wind doesnt come off the 3 rivers. Also Ben is perhaps the worst nfl qb Ive ever seen at executing a screen. Which is odd because he has no problem holding the ball till the last possible second.
I don't think Ben is the problem it is the screens we use. We are pretty good at the TE screens, but the WR bubble screens suck. We also don't seem to get the RBs involved much with swing passes or screens.

Haha. Gold. But in all seriousness, the kid was way too small. But they drafted him and fairly high. It was kind of up to them to find a way to get the guy the ball in a way you can use him. Terrible pick though.
Beautiful tribute posted tonight on nfl.com. Really hope Ryan will get healthy. Now let's go win this one for him!
