You don't hear a lot of people talking about it but AB often changes the way he runs routes l from the they're drawn up and Ben has to adjust to him.
I believe that AB and Ben didn't click early, and AB lost his shit.
Ben had no problem getting the ball down the field at a high rate to JuJu. That tells you something right there.
Is Ben starting to show signs of his age? Maybe....but I suspect that his downfield numbers will get better this year without Mr. Big Chest.
