    Ben clarifies that the term was not meant to be negative:

    OK, I'll go with him on this. Tonight, on NFL Live, Antonio Brown used "dink and dunk" to describe the offense and said it rather matter-of-factly. So maybe it's a term of endearment within the team.

    Personally, I took issue not with him using the dink and dunk term, as like he says, there's nothing negative about it. I took issue with him directing the attention towards Todd Haley when asked why he wasn't throwing the ball down field more. I think he should have been much more professional with his answer. Say something like "well what we're doing is working, but if the defence gives us an open receiver down field, we'll take our shots." He could have said so many things there.

    Oh well, that's old news anyway.

    Because our OL is so poor in certain areas, Todd Haley had
    to go with this dink and dunk offense to protect #7.As we use to say we
    are the PGH Steelers we GO DOWN FIELD. Maybe once we have a better OL
    maybe we can return to our roots of going DOWN FIELD.

    Since the Vice President is somewhere lost making gaffes in one of the 57 states I must step up and fulfill my duties.
    As speaker of the house and third in line I approve this message.
