    Yeah, I don't get that either. If people had a gripe with BA's system getting Ben hit alot, that's one thing because he does have a lot of long developing plays in his playbook but the whole relationship angle thing was a bit ridiculous.

    Yeh but how many of those came in the first 4 weeks when no one was blocking anyone? They gave up hardly any I think over the last several weeks, I'd have to look it up. The ball definitely comes out of Bens hands quicker, thats on Haley.

    true the last 7 we had 7. that's still a lot before that and a lot last year too. we threw more deep balls under haley too. bell, AB(coming on as a 1), heath( finally getting healthy), velasco, walace and beachum were key to the better offense. I'm not anointing the reason for the turn around all on the haley offense because it was added to and subtracted from and better players and players playing better. not to mention the collaboration of many to make it team friendly.:cool:

    I don't think anyone is, I think he deserves some of the credit though. However, I don't like Haley so if you or anyone else don't want to, I don't care :lolol:

    Kirby is Tomlins "guy" he will be the offensive coordinator in a couple years.

    Yep. At the beginning of the season, i would have been outraged to have him be retained. However, I can see past that and recognize improvement where there is some. Our O looked solid toward the end of the season so, perhaps, with a healthy OL there will be something to get excited about in 2014.
