Kurt Warner: OC Todd Haley good for Big Ben - Page 2

Unlike a Peyton Manning or an Andrew Luck, Roethlisberger isn't known as one whose handprints are all over the playbook. He will follow the game plan but, at times, prefers to rely on his instincts and improvisational ability.

I take issue with this statement, does Andrew Luck really compare to Peyton in this aspect? He is a rookie, how are his 'handprints' all over the playbook? This statement seems like a slight toward BB. How does a rookie have more of an impact on the playbook than a seasoned vet?

You did not just compare Arians to those coaches!

Walsh 3x SB winner, Gibbs 3x SB winner, Parcells 2x SB winner, Belichick 3x SB winner... Arians 1 year as an interim HC.

The real question you need to ask yourself: "Is Arians a better football coach than Don Shula or George Halas?"

And the real answer is: How the fuck would I know? He hasn't been a head coach yet, so how could I possibly be able to answer that?

But I'll say this: if his success with Indy is any example, I'd say he sure as hell has a shot!

Dude let's not forget that his Qbs were BB and a guy that made everybody forget about Payton in less than a year

I might be the best quarterback in the NFL too. There is no way to possibly know since I never got my shot.

It's not like this is Greg Knapp running the offense...Ben needs to grow a brain and think sometimes before he opens his yap

You look at what happened this season and think Ben is the one that should be humbled?

Well this is Pittsburgh after all.

"SHOOT THE GOALIE!"

I hope Ben listens to what Warner is saying, if he hasnt already. Big things can happen with this offense, but we still need a running game so that its not one dimensional.

The fact that Haley tried to run the ball is what opened things for Heath Miller so much. I hope he comes back healthy and that Paulsen shows us he can be a weapon as a receiver too.

Agreed. Not to mention getting bashed yet again for "having a big mouth" in a thread that features an article in which he doesn't say a damn thing.
