Steelers' Ben Roethlisberger: 'All' of Todd Haley's offense suits me

Jeremy Fowler, ESPN Senior NFL Writer

PITTSBURGH -- When Ben Roethlisberger watches film of last season's games, he can see what about Todd Haley's offense suits him well.

“All of it,” Roethlisberger said in an interview last week. “We work well together. Guys believe in it and believe in each other. That’s one of the biggest keys.”

Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and offensive coordinator Todd Haley found a groove during the second half of last season.

The Pittsburgh Steelers open minicamp Tuesday with the optimism of a 6-2 finish to last year's regular season, a stretch during which Roethlisberger threw for 2,572 of his career-high 4,952 passing yards, completing at least 63 percent of his passes in all but one of those games. Roethlisberger’s quarterback rating jumped from 92 in 2013 to 103.3 last season thanks to 32 touchdowns and nine interceptions.

This is a sizable jump for a team that got trounced 31-10 in Cleveland on Oct. 12.

Both Roethlisberger and Haley, who is entering his fourth season as Pittsburgh's offensive coordinator, have expressed happiness with the balance struck between implementing Haley’s quick passing game -- with an emphasis on yards after the catch -- and utilizing Roethlisberger’s ability to improvise, or make “Ben-like plays,” as Haley calls them.

Roethlisberger was sacked 33 times last season, his lowest total since 2005.

Haley's offense (aside from the numbers) is clearly good for Ben. Sacked only 33 times is keeps nag the guy healthy and you can clearly see Ben being a field general out there.

BB and TH are obviously at each other's throats. One of them has to go.

When it's working, everyone loves each other. I don' think even Ben and Haley expected to be #2 in offense and passing. Of course Ben is only going to say everything is all awesome.

Ben will never sign a new contract with the Steelers as long as Todd Haley is still the OC here.

oh wait...

You're right. They probably still hate each other deep down inside. Lol.

Ben and the rest of the offensive talent the Steelers have assembled could make me look like a good offensive coordinator. :coffee:

Almost every player doesn't like Todd very much. Just watch the interaction on the sidelines. Even when they score players look like they would rather eat puke than hug Todd.

Or they just gently shove him out of the way on the sidelines when he falls:

Roethlisberger said not only does he enjoy the offense under Todd Haley but they've become good friends, similarly to he and Bruce Arians
