Read this if you want a clue as to why the offense stinks

That was horrid play calling....We ran on 95% of first downs. And is it just me or where our backs about 7 yards deep when they were taking the handoff every play? We hadn't been doing that all season have we?

correct - one helluva a long way to get to the handoff, and Ben really leads the defense as to where the RB is getting the ball.

I wasn't a fan of the play calling, but, Ben needs to get his head right and start believing in other people over his John Wayne skills that haven't really payed off in the past two season. John Elway won 2 SBs by having faith in the rest of his teammates and playing sound football. Ben's best days may be behind him at this rate . . .

The problem with your argument is Art Rooney doesn't know as much about football as many of you think he does. Lets not praise him just because he shares daddy's last name.

Someone needs to hypnotize Ben so he thinks its inside the 2 minute warning of the 1st half.
This team sputters so bad when we reach the 30-40 yard line, then Ben gets sacked every damn time.

Ben is turning into a late in his career Brett Favre. He's lost IT.

Ben's been playing like crap! There were check downs he could've taken but don't. Bring in a LEGITIMATE number 2 Qb and watch Ben play a whole lot better!!!

Guys. Please; I know its a really tough pill to swallow right now; but let's be real here. Yes Ben messed up but the reality is that the coaching and playcalling was a disaster all game. To put ben in a situation like this every week when especially today; the game should have been way before that last drive. Kudos to our d!! Fantastic game!! Haley; you are a complete idiot. I have no idea what he was calling his 1st down run second down run shit. #rd and 8 getting Ben killed. A disgrace. Ben tried too much to make it happen. But that's Ben and I will take him anyday.

I'm pretty sure there was a reason they didn't want Ben to throw...

LOL! I praise you for effort, but you're asking yinzers to think straight after being eliminated from the postseason.

I say let them fume for a few days, then show them tapes from the 80's and 90's. Then they'll understand why Ben is important.
