    I noticed that look when it happened too, was a 3rd and 12 and Ben ended up rolling out to the right and then ran it for a 10 yard gain, after that was the pass to Bell on 4th and 2 to keep the drive alive.

    Anyone else suspect that Ian Rappaport's inside source might trace back to Haley? I think Haley sees the writing on the wall and knows he's going to be jettisoned at the end of the season, so he's making a last ditch attempt to undermine the relationship between Ben and the team.

    If that is the case, all of his stuff should be piled outside the main gate, and he should never get into the stadium again except as a coach for an apposing team. Starting right now.

    I watched the CBS pregame yesterday and Boomer actually speculated that Haley might be the source. If true, like Tex said he should be gone immediately.

    Experience tells me he's exactly that kind of guy, but also not smart enough to not get caught .

    He had to absolutely hate yesterdays exhibit of Ben calling his own plays and dominating doin it. Maybe Haley's play design is good, but his gameday calls suck.

    Re: Anyone else catch this ?

    Ben did a good job in the post game interview deflecting credit by saying that everyone was involved in the playcalling. But he was busted by his own teammates (Heath Miller aka "Honest Abe")

    Can you even imagine the media explosion if Ben had actually admitted that he was the one calling most of the plays???

    It's heart breaking that we just may still have a cancer on our team. It's even more heart breaking that it may be a coach.

    we all know he was the one calling the plays , he always is in no huddle not enough time to have it come in from the sidelines or it is no longer " hurry up "

    He called the 20-yard touchdown pass to Cotchery at the line of scrimmage, a score that gave the Steelers their 37-27 lead. He faked a quick screen left to receiver Markus Wheaton, then lobbed the ball down the left sideline to a wide-open Cotchery, who snuck behind the defense.

    I've often wondered if the radio headsets can be overheard by others (other team/fans etc...) or are they encrypted ?

    Anyone know for sure or what frequency(ies) NFL teams use ?

    Maybe Ian Rapashit got some new appliances from Mr. and Mrs. Haley

    We bitch and moan about "speculative journalism" all the time, yet what are we doing in this very thread? Personally, I could give a rip who the so called "source" is. I think that the fact that NOBODY else except for the nfl network is reporting the stuff concerning Ben is very interesting. That tells me all I need to know about the so called "source."

    Last I checked we're not members of the press, just fans shooting the shit on a message board. Our obligation for the truth isn't quite the same now is it?

    Hold on. You're telling me... when a quarterback makes fewer pass attempts in a game... that's usually a good sign? Huh. No shit, I never would have thought of that. Ben must suck. Let's trade the bum.
