    At this point he is average. Every joe scheme QB can throw for 400 yards and 5-6 TDs now. Can we say that Ben is really better than Ryan Fitzpatrick at this point? The stats wouldn't support it.

    Ben is garbage and doesnt even care, he just throws it out there hoping for the best. Doesn't matter if the receivers have defenders hanging off of them.

    You know it's bad when giving up 26 points is considered ok.

    He's done. It is a testament to his talent that he still looks as good as he does at times. But, he can't throw the deep ball anymore. His decision-making is getting worse. I don't know if that is arrogance, or he just isn't as quick to react as he once was. Every time a camera shows him, he's standing alone on the sidelines looking lost and dejected. It is hard to watch considering what he's been. I think it is just one season too many. He should have retired like he wanted to.

    Only chance this team has is an injured Ben. Dobbs would bring new life into this offence the same way Mayfied has in poopland

    Ah, no. Dobbs is not a starting NFL QB. Never will be.

    Tonight were some of the dumbest throws I have seen in a while. I think one was forced into quadruple coverage. He seems to have wide open guys, but chooses to force it somewhere else or just doesn't see them. Maybe he needs glasses a la Wild Thing. Poor play designs, too, don't help.

    I thought the road record thing was a fluke, but Ben is just not sharp anymore.

    Gilbert hasn't taken out any of his own players in awhile. I think him and Ben should hang out more. Do some roller blading together, do some ice skating, play some baseball , where Ben is the catcher and Gilbert can practice his stealing home skills.
