    Haley isn't working out because ben doesn't have to listen to him. BTW Hayley did not throw end of the game picks last week and this.
    If ben cau pout cause BA is gone, send ben to indy too.

    BULLCRAP! tThe only reason the Steelers are not rolling toward the playoffs now is because Ben threw two STUPID interceptions that cost us the last two games!

    What's your point? The same can be said for 25 teams in the NFL. When your QB makes $100 million, he's expected to win some games when they matter the most. Ben hasn't done that for 2 years now.

    The reason we were in it to lose or win it on a play is because of Ben.

    Who knows...the Byron/batch combo we were 1-2 with some bad ST and fumbles. We were 0-3 since Bens return, so yeah, maybe...

    This loss is on Ben

    Even though I don't care for him, I have defended Ben. No more. After the losses last week and today, something is wrong with him. Think he tanked on purpose to make Haley look bad? Just throwing it out there. The loss last week was due to his pick, the loss this week was due to TWO of his picks. Why he continues to target the bum Wallace is beyond me. This is just sickening. Front office needs to overhaul. I would have no problem is Tomlin is gone next year, but I don't see that happening. Just so angry!

    not going to get into an ugly spat with boys on here

    i truly believe the team needs to bring in someone to back ben up and possibly take over his position because

    he may just be toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
    comfortable in his job security!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    do not go against the coaches and try to be the team when
    YOU LOSE GAMES FOR THE TEAM!!!

    Your speaking from emotion. He makes what other QBs in this league make. He's got us in there year after year, In fact, this year you could say we shouldn't have been in there but we were. Just one game out of the playoffs and this is prolly our worse year w/ Ben.

    A lot of teams in the league would take him and that chance sheeesh

    Don't Ben have like 24 4th. quarter comebacks? However, I like to see how many 4th. quarter chokes he has. As I have stated on here many times, I hold him as the reason we stink this year. Just as in the game today against the Bungals, our defense played pretty good, at least good enough to win the game.Ben is regressing. He is over rated. He is far from elite and at this point in his career he is average at best. For all the homers on here who think Ben is another Brady, good luck to you in La La land. Out of 32 QB's in the league now he is in the twenty's now. Big Ben = Big Choke:lolol:

    I think this could have been a response in another thread, perhaps it will be merged. But I disagree. Does he share in the blame? Yes, but there are 11 guys on the field. Guys that go off-sides guys that hold, guys that drop balls, guys that dance at the line, guys that are turnstiles, guys that got injured and weren't on the field when we needed them. It is a team loss.

    Why shouldn't we have been in there? We have a defence that has limited the amount of points other teams get. The only reason we are not in the playoffs is because of our offence. Last time I checked an offence revolved around the QB. We aren't in the playoffs because of Ben. I don't care if we wouldn't have got there at all with Batch or Lefty as the QB, they are not our QB's so that's a stupid point. Ben is the starter and he gets paid a lot of money to win games. he blew it when it mattered the most

    And what a difference that botched snap/hold on that short FG would have made in the end and they could have easily won if they had got that too. There are 50000 things you can point out in each game...coulda woulda shoulda.

    Many, but I'm hoping it can be thrashed out here. It's a painful process but must be done.

    I hate to say this, but Haley's offense is meant to only work if Ben is highly efficient. Ben has never really been highly efficient like Manning or Brady though. Maybe they got to play to his strengths more like the B.A. gunslinging offense.
