    If we are going anywhere he will have to play lights out from here on.
    Instead of you calling out MB, which was needed, we need you to step up now.
    How about playing smart football, use ALL your weapons. show us what 200 mill
    should buy.

    There is no way we win without Ben, He needs to come out like he did in the 1st half of the Seachicken game and the 2nd half of the Donkey game. Put them two halfs together and we win in a blow out. I feel Ben is the key tonight, I don't care about our running game and I don't care how bad our D has played. Give me a hot Ben and we are unbeatable......

    I think Ben is smart enough to know he cant call out players and then not bring his own A game, great leaders lead by example........

    Let's face it Ben hasn't had a good playoff game since the win over the Ravens in 2010. Certainly the losses aren't all his fault, but let's face it he has been disappointing. The forcing of passes in particular has been troublesome and he has done a lot of that the past 4 weeks.

    He has to be smart and patient tonight. Hope he comes through, I know he is capable.

    They all need to bring their A game. No picks by Ben, no dropped passes, no fumbles, Oline has to protect Ben as does Toussiant and Todman, can't be blowing their assignments. Defense has to get off the field on 3rd down, get pressure on AJ, secondary has to...well, has to not suck so bad I guess.

    In fairness, Ben has only played in 2 playoff games since 2010. He was bad last season against the Ravens and I'll throw out the 2011 game at Denver since he was on one leg and pretty much a statue.

    A clean game. That's what we need to see from Ben. Interceptions happen. But multiple picks and saying that you never got into a rhythm will result into a loss. Hopefully we see the Elite Ben...

    Exactly, it's a team sport. If online doesn't hold back the pressure than it will be more difficult for Ben.

    That Rhythm thing you mentioned does seem like a huge thing to Ben ...Watching a lot of games when we come out running he seems not to play so well... I wonder if he keeps his mental sharpness as good as he should ? When he makes bad throws it's like he just forgets that there is a defender there ....

    He needs to stay sharp and keep his head in the game and Coach Haley needs to help him in that regard...Stay in his ear and keep him focused. I would like to see Ben,Brown,Bryant,Wheaton,DHB, and Miller in a huddle the entire time the D is on the field .. Instead of every once in awhile or after a bad series every time .....If those guys get on the same page there is No Team that can stop them...

    They need that killer instinct they should have a goal of putting up 50 every time out and when they score 30 what did we do wrong type of mentality ...

    :this!:

    Yep, it is all on Ben. These are the types of games that QB legends are made. Big time players need to make big time plays and lead their team to victory.

    if Ben reads too much into his old hype and presses we lose. Relax Ben, play smart and you'll be ok
