    We have 2 QBs who can do that, AND line up under center.... but there on the bench

    No He not the only exception He's just the slowest.
    I said 100 times I'm all for a Pocket Qb that can run. Not a running Qb that throws.

    I think You are miss understanding Me.
    I'm fine with a Pocket Qb that can Run. I don't want a running Qb that throws.
    If You have 2 design a complete different offense for your Qb examples Lamar, and Kapernick(not sure on spelling)....You are a running Qb. If You can play in any offense system ....example: Wilson, Rodgers, and Mahomes You are a Pocket Qb that can run.

    What an awful game, nobody is on the same page.
    I should take the OT offered at work on Sundays and just watch the replay.
    Ben is playing hard but he looks terrible. What he wants to do and can do are two different things.
    Najee is taking a beating.
    The WR group is overrated .
    This will be a awful season and 7 wins max.
    Our division has 3 young studs QB`s going thru the lumps and they are 2+ years ahead of us. We will have to go thru that QB growth period soon.
    The Steelers are behind the division by a few years and things will get uglier.

    No I missed that. Kap doesn't play anymore and was successful at what he did. I don't care for the Ravens but Jackson is very effective at what he does. The object of the game is to win and those two won many games, even more than most of the pocket passers in the league.

    But I get it that you have a bias against what you deem running QBs that can pass. I call all of them QBs because they play the position. But it's all good.

    Wait a minute now friend. When we talk about Ben it's not about wins ots about SB championship, but if it's about Lamar or another Qb it's only about regular season wins???
    Have I not heard You say our regular season wins mean nothing on here before???
    I could be mistaken :shrug:

    I thought we were talking about the types of QBs?

    If you are back to Ben's performance, he has been stellar in his career but is in a drastic decline. If you can't see that, then I can't convince you. I think Ben is done.

    This is how I imagine Dan Marino would look if he suited up now on Sunday, just out of athleticism and out of sorts. A retired guy trying to play young men's sport at highest level. It did not look good, at all.

    For me, one of the frustrating things I saw today was that for every pass the receivers caught ... they had zero opportunity for YAC.

    It was always a quick out where they were either going out of bounds or quickly being tackled.

    That is playcalling and coaching.


    Also it just seems the ball is coming out of Ben's hand weird. It looked like wounded ducks all day. His delivery has entirely changed. Is that the reconstructed elbow?

    A running qb that throws may very well win the superbowl this yr.

    some of us saw the potential of this **** show coming this year. I had us at .500, I was wrong. Maybe we win 6 - maybe.

    The SAD part is this will NOT get Tomlin fired. Rooney sucks - ALL if of this rests on him. He should have had the balls to clean house after 2017, 2018. Tomlin will be here a long time. and no Franchise QB in sight. I was ALL IN for trading for Darnold and getting a fresh start. They proceeded to bring a QB back who clearly showed he could not compete at a high level anymore during last season.

    Well would be a first. A broken clock is correct twice a day....So we shall see. The only Running Qb in the League I have watched this Year is Lamar, and He barely got past Detroit, and also Lost 2 the Raiders
