Ben sucked ass the last part of the season! It wasn't Art's fault, or Haley or Tomlin but Bens?? Get over it and lets hope for better results this season if he can stay healthy...

He stunk in the Bengals game.
But he also wasn't helped by his genius OC either.
You can't pitter patter and try to run the ball all day and then when they can't hope that Ben saves them in the last 2 minutes.
When this team gets back to attacking teams on defense, and comes out aggressive on offense to start games? Then the winning will resume.
If the focal point remains time of possession and resting our defense? It won't.
It's really that simple.
Remind when ben put up 3 td drives in one half.
Same standard my ass
Situational football is more important than a subjective view of points.
Flacco led 2 critical drives. That 3rd and 1 back shoulder throw was as clutch as any GW drive. Similar to that Eli to Mario throw last year.
You have the densest view.
Flacco didn't need to win the game in the 2nd half, he had all ready done enough to win it by half...
No shit Sherlock.Quote:

But people like you are claiming Ben did nothing until the last drive of XLIII.
That simply isn't accurate if one watched the game.
10 points on first 2 drives followed by
- Punt (8 yds passing)
- Int (on 1st pass
- FG (converted from 2 after entire drive was assisted by 35 yards in penalties. Ben was 4 of 8 for 22 yards, and failed to convert the TD in the red zone TWICE. 0-3 passing in the red zone on the drive)
- Punt (sacked, 3 and out)
- Punt (sacked, 3 and out)
The came the game winning drive... which was amazing.
So when Chris Kemoeatu gets called for holding wiping out a 3rd and 12 conversion that's Ben's fault?Quote:
- Punt (8 yds passing)
Got it.
So when Heath Miller drops Ben's first redzone pass of that half that's Ben's fault?Quote:
- FG (converted from 2 after entire drive was assisted by 35 yards in penalties. Ben was 4 of 8 for 22 yards, and failed to convert the TD in the red zone TWICE. 0-3 passing in the red zone on the drive)
Got it.
Ben's 2nd RZ pass in that drive was when he was under pressure, he did what you guys want and threw the ball away.
After the penalty they ran on first down, then they tried a short pass to Davis which was tipped, and then a QB draw.
Why are we paying Ben big money to hand off?
Actually that is incorrect. The first play of that series Hines drew a flag on a hold. But rather than go for the throat up 17-7?Quote:
- Punt (sacked, 3 and out)
Run run sack.
Then the Cards score, and the game totally changed.
Funny that you didn't mention the specifics of Flacco's 2nd half... you didn't mention Ray Rice fumbling or Dennis Pitta dropping a 3rd down conversion.
Exactly... Your have no consistency, and I will continue to point it out every time you post you bias
