I love it!!

You got to give more touches as a reward for that touchdown run in Baltimore. Grit, determination and the drive to succeed. Go RedZone Go.

Actually, the weather means that we will see Ben airing it out, with very little running. Don't forget, BA is our OC. How likely is he to use any sense in his play calling?
