Can Ben reach 5,000 yards?

In a normal game, a team has 10-12 drives in a game

Today, the Steelers only had 6 drives(with only 50-55 plays)......With more drives and more plays, Ben would have had at least 300 yards

True enough. The Chiefs were converting 3rd downs all game, so yeah it did keep our offense off the field to a large extent.

Yeah, the problem was that for a lot of the game, our defense was as porous as ever, except Alex Smith can't throw further than 10 yards. So instead of the usual 5-play, 80-yard drive in 1:30 for a touchdown, it was 12-play, 75-yard drives in 7:00 for a field goal. I guess we kind of did the same thing, only with a couple of touchdowns mixed in.

Anyway, possible that he gets it next week, flip a coin.
