    Your logic is flawed. Just because Malarkey, Whiz, and Vrabel haven't been effective doesn't automatically equate to Munchak being a good HC at TN. The first 2 guys failed and jury is still out on Vrabel but he is the only one you mentioned that has seen the post season at TN, Munchak included. Are you saying that Munchak was a good HC?

    IF Ben comes back next year, he will have more rust than the titanic, probably set a record for picks and then blame it on his arm and retire, and after eating like a horse at home he will show up looking like the michelin man, no he wont be the same after a year off and we will get a repeat of this season if he does come back....

    With a healthy Ben I bet we still be 0-3 to this point with the way they have been playing.

    I agree that Tomlin has a lot of issues but that kid has to hold on to the ball period. There is no excuse, if you want to be a starting running back do not put the ball on the ground. If he doesn’t fumble we win the game.

    I the line can’t open holes when the opponent is playing the run. They are stacking the box and coming after him. Our play designs are weak and ineffective. He needs plays that allow a quick release. Our screen game sucks. Everyone thinks the Patriots have a great line, they have a average line that is not required to protect longer than 3 seconds. Teams respect the pass which opens the run game. Their screen game is very well designed.

    Don't forget he'll be too busy at Treesdale playing golf, like he was a couple days before opening game.

    I thought they said his elbow has been bothering him for a while? What it doesn’t hurt swinging a club?

    It didn't a couple of days before opening day. He was at Treesdale playing Orchard/Grove, this isn't a rumor, I was there and a lot of members saw him there.

    I don't care what anyone does on their own time, it's just a little weird before the season during preseason for any player to do that.

    Oh I believe you. There was just a lot of BS coming out that it’s been bothering him for a while and he had to ice it on
    Bensday. Probably just typical BS.

    Dude, he plays there and Chartiers a lot. I see him at both private courses for free btw. I guess only scrubs like me have to pay for memberships but we will see how that goes during the membership meetings. I'm not a fanboy and I don't like people not paying their dues.

    Anyways, apparently swinging a golf club at over a 100mph into the hard ass ground is ok for your shoulder.

    Guess what if Ben got 5 turnovers from the defense, he would put up more than 6 points :facepalm:.

    Wrong again, the only 2 passes Rudolph completed past the line of scrimmage was the 2 TD passes :shrug:. Ben would've shredded that secondary, they aren't that good.

    No, I'm talking about points off of turnovers they only scored 6 points, the 49ers scored 14 points off of the Steelers 2 turnovers.

    Maybe it’s true who knows. I don’t play golf but I would imagine that a elbow ailment that keeps him out of practice would be enough to keep him from golfing as well. The past few years I believe less and less coming from most of these guys. That’s just me.

    I don't know where the narrative that Bens elbow has been bothering him for a while came from.

    I think it was JuJu that said the first he heard of it was the NE game.

    Then there is a gif somewhere of him clutching his elbow after a throw during the Seahawks game right before he came out.

    Dollars to donuts, this is an injury from wear and tear and not from being tackled.

    Mason was responsible for 7 of those. Not 14. Ben has scored 0 tds this year. The kid has thrown for 4. You have to watch the second half of these games. :cool:

    Ben played a game and a half, maybe his elbow was bothering him. I watched the whole 49ers game, Mason made 2 passes the whole game down the field.
