    shame Ben missed Heath, that would have been enough to get into make-able FG range

    No reason to not get at least 3 out of that drive. Ben is bad.

    Ben did you study this week.

    wow this is as bad as he has played in a long time.

    We should have for sure had a FG at half. If Ben makes one of those throws.

    It's a QB driven league and our QB is playing like ****. He is missing wide open guys all over the field. I don't know how that has anything to do with coaching. The play calls are working guys are wide open the ball isn't being delivered.whose fault is that?

    I agree. That's not his strong suit. Might as well go for the end zone and hope for PI

    In fairness he did hit a 53 yarder a few weeks back ... but that was a new career long.

    The way Ben's throwing, we need taller receivers. About 8' should do it!

    Well the good thing is the Ben can't play much worse in the second half, right guys? It is all up from here?

    Ugh! The lack of points fall on the shoulders of Ben. He needs to start making some throws.

    I'm hoping the half time adjustments include getting back to the short passing game. Get your QB and receivers into a rhythm.

    Agreed. The coach doesn't throw the ball high, causing at least 6 incomplete passes and a loss of nearly 70 yards.

    Bell is averaging > 5 yards a carry. Maybe do that more?

    Steelers should just run the ball and keep breeze on the sideline mix the plays up with Bell and blunt
    forgot we don't have a second running back

    Unfortunately he was in too on some plays and was also getting pushed around

    You can't run him every down you need balance to make the run effective. Everybody can point to this or that but the bottom line is the guy with the ball in his hands on every play need to be more productive in what he does with it. It's that simple....

    Then we'll keep Brown's streak alive and lose 28-20.

    There are a lot of reasonable critiques that can fall at the feet of Mike Tomlin... record against sub-par teams, clock management, etc. But, I don't what he can do when your QB is just having an off day. I hope Ben gets hot in 2nd Half. I think we will need to score at least 28 to win this game.
