Dcash4 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 -4 points on Ben missing Hunter -1 point Boswell missed extra point -7 points on Sean Davis being a freaking idiot -3 (minimum) Ben floating one in the middle of the field So that’s negative 15 points on things we can largely control. Add in officiating and that’s -30 points... Just an absolutely infuriating loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Haden picks that, the game is over right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While having a ball hawk somewhere on d helps you create, largely turnovers are non-repeatable actions. TJ Watt is a ball hanging for 1 more second way from a pick, our defenders take each other out, last week we blocked a DT into a int, our running back gets hit low and fumbles the ball, our large TE drops the ball before the goal line.... Something HAS to break our way at some point.....right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August4th Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 also disgusting Ben leads the NFL in pass attempts by a decent margin this dude is not efficient enough to be throwing the ball so many times Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want them to beat NE so bad, but if they lay another egg in Oakland, that may not happen. And, if it doesn't, it's time for Tomlin to go barring a miracle playoff run. I now believe the OC and DC are more to blame, as well as colbert. Tomlin gets a pass from me for now anyways. We see this team dominate, so in a way colbert might get a pass. The play calling is what does it. Covering an elite WR with traditional LB's for example doesn't get a pass. Doing so repeatedly is a FAIL+, Our passruch won't get home vs the pats or saints unless they leave Hargrave in there. Hargrave is downhill as a passrusher (IMO better than Heyward and Tuitt for pass rush) but is wasted here for the most part. His sacks per snap ration has to be really high because in limited play he has 6.5 and that's a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not downs in a crowd of dust, but the balance has to be there. Also, while michael and colinsworth were giving praise to the OL showing the amount of time ben has to throw , I was thinking about how it WILL BE when he doesn't have that time to throw. BB will get his players their somehow in time to be disruptive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warfelg Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 I posted it in main: 9 of Bens 11 INTs have come when targeting Brown. His lowest QBR comes when targeting Brown. His lowest comp% comes when targeting Brown. Brown is not facing a significantly higher double team rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His lowest QBR comes when targeting Brown. His lowest comp% comes when targeting Brown. Brown is not facing a significantly higher double team rate. I think AB has been able to bail him out of a lot of crap throws in years prior. This year it seems like Ben is getting more and more wild to AB. I don't think it's AB taking a step back, I think it's Ben forcing it to him with worse throws than usual. We need a reliable 3rd target really bad. Vance is fantastic when he has the ball in his hands. He is not a route runner, though. James can find a soft spot in a zone, but that's about it. Hunter can't catch. Washington can't get open or catch. DHB takes both to the extreme. Connor's hurt and his confidence is tanking. Switzer is decent but he doesn't offer much farther than 5 yards past the LOS. Maybe Rogers will right the ship. He's shown a good connection with Ben and he can run intermediate routes better than Switzer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, we saw what Young Ben could do without protection. That's something Eli could never do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben has been the superior QB, but his decline is closing the gap between the two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
