    When this happens (the in-house finger-pointing), it's not a good sign. And there has been a lot of it.

    I didn't see anything wrong with it. He was asked and he answered. He's also damn right.

    Ben didn't look elsewhere

    coates missed a td but ben over threw him deep left and under threw deep right

    Rogers was open quite a bit in his one on ones

    he prolly meant ben should have stepped up

    No, he is not wrong, but saying it to the media, I think, is a no no. This is the guy who also celebrates when he knows it hurts the team, complains when he doesn't get the ball enough, and is pretty full of himself. Just saying things like "I am so good that other teams scheme for me - that is why my production is down". I still see Odell Beckham and Gronk scoring and lighting up the field, and I'll bet teams scheme against them. There would be better ways, publicly and privately, to address this issue.

    He isn't wrong at all. Ben was terrible. The play calling was terrible.

    He probably should have been in there earlier, the offense struggled for 3 qtrs.

    Exactly my point he wasn't.. Knowing that the Rats where going to stuff Bell, I knew that way before the game even started ...Why did we not have more 5 WR sets early in the game with Bell and ELI being 2 of them? When we did use multiple WR'S it was filled with TE'S instead of speedy,shifty guys ...The game plan was very poor ...

    Julio Jones is having superb success with a good receiver in Sanu. As such, with one on ones, it is game, set and match for teams who do not have a choice but to account for both.


    AB really is not wrong on this. As much as the media has made him to be this "One Man Army", he really has had such success thanks to the likes of Ben and his supporting cast of Miller (now gone) and Bryant (still suspended).



    Sammie Coates has to step up soon. He has no choice as Bryant is not here, Wheaton is clearly seen his last days, and Rodgers cannot replicate what either Coates nor Bryant bring to the table.

    I get that Haley wanted to establish the run with Bell, but he waited too long to make adjustments.

    I'm cool with this and I agree with him but a couple things.

    1) Maybe if he laid low, ie not twerking on teams and acted like he's been in the endzone before. Teams wouldn't be inclined to triple cover him. Nobody wants to go on social media and SC after the game and watch him doing the doo doo Brown on their squad.

    2) He hasn't been stellar himself. He's dropped some catchable balls.

    You're astute 2 play breakdown and impressive observation with limited views of Rodgers aside, I think I'll trust AB on this one ;)

    I don't think he said anything terrible. He was asked a question and answered it, pretty harmlessly, IMO.

    How much that would have made a difference with how badly Ben was missing throws yesterday, I don't know but overall, when AB is getting smothered like that, other people need to win their one on ones.
