    you double brown and then we have no offense lol. Hopefully Bell changes that as a dual threat. Need him healthy especially with no Bryant.

    Yep. Coates, Wheaton and DHB did a good regular season Santonio Holmes impersonation. They completely disappeared.

    That is true and very upsetting considering the wasted talent that M. Bryant could be for this team in 2016. Haley referred to him as the alien. A freak of talent. Too bad his brain is stuck on some other planet.

    I like Coates progress and should only get better. He's hauled in a 40 yard pass in every game so far, too.

    Bell being back changes a lot, he's a nightmare to game plan for.

    Im not sure what game people watched. Ben had open WRs. A few passes were dropped and Ben had issues throwing the ball accurately vs the Eagles.

    :facepalm: He had one bad game against the Eagles, so did the rest of his teammates.

    Ben had two bad games...the first was overlooked because we won and we excused him because of the weather but this last game was embarrassing.

    a lot had to do with our o-line too. ben couldn't step up in the pocket or follow through with guys in his face. that really hurts accuracy. they need to do a much better job of pass protection. many were singing this lines praises this year and most saw the money so it's time to play like it. :cool:

    Under coach Haley...the online is designed to get the ball out quickly. When Ben has his mind to go deep...he's going deep. He literally almost miss DWill wide open in the flat for a TD. Everyone in the stadium and at home was saying throw to DWill and he still got it to him late. That's how long he was opened. Its time to stop all the excuses for Ben. This is why nobody else outside of steelernation seriously consider Ben, without having to be convinced, an elite qb. There, I said it

    DWill was not the primary receiver and Ben had to have a few moments to go through his progressions and that is when he saw DWill.

    Ben threw 3 TDs in the pouring rain and the team won, the Bengals also have a good defense AB was shut down. Some fans need to get real geez.

    I think Ben is pretty good and I'm glad we got him but I don't think he is "elite". Too inconsistent.

    He has had more than one bad game than the one against the Eagles. He has had more good games. The problem is the wide range of inconsistency.

    No, not Elite. But glad we have him.

    Unless "Elite" covers random versions of great, average, mediocre, fantastic, and horrible.

    This is correct.

    This argument has gotten old. Until Ben quits having repetitive bad games, he should not have the word "Elite" associated with him.

    I don't agree, but some will *cough* jeh *cough*

    The whole elite thing is too subjective, Bens top 5 definitely and top 3 in my book.

    Not argueing, just asking. Are you saying top 5 now or all time? I certainly agree top now.

    My "Elite" is aiming more all time. Symantics?
