The clock operators are struggling tonight.
Of course he's making some bad throws. But the interception to DJ was DJ not getting his head around. Ebron drops a big pass because he ran past the LB in zone coverage and was supposed to sit down in the hole and he kept running.
The INT over Snell's head was all Ben's fault. The deflected pass wasn't really Ben's fault. Teams know if they can't get to him, they are getting pressure right in his face quickly so they get their hands up. That shit just happens.
There were some others, but those are the basics. The offensive line has been horrific at times and gives up quick pressure almost every play anymore. Browns are playing off and they still can't run.
Ben doesn't play defense, and neither is this team today.
LOL Edmunds just wiffs.
The defense is trash tonight. They just keep running away from Watt, and doubling Watt on most pass plays.
Time for weed.
Edmunds is horrible at tackling.
One and done against the Browns? Who'd have thunk it?
I guess the browns will rest mayfield the 2nd half
Enough of the Tomlin/Ben era, both need to be shown the door
I said this about 4 weeks ago. Bush was survivable but losing Dupree allowed teams to do exactly what you just said above. And when did we start losing? Yep right after Dupree went down.
Now they make it 35-7 and they receive the 2nd half kick off.
Ben please retire, let this team rebuild while our defense is still young.
I hope they take responsibility for their play tonight.
End of an era. Too many key injuries on defense and the old gunslinger ran out of gas.
The Steelers' Brass are likely preparing their Ben "retirement" story that will likely be the big offseason drama. Time to move on.
Get this dude out of here.
He just made some on the last scoring drive. The Browns didn't come after him as much, he had more time, and he made all the throws.
I'm not saying he's prime Ben. I'm saying that there's a whole mess going on right in front of us all over the field tonight. I'm also seeing everyone bash the guy on plays that he can't control. I know QB's get the blame. That's the job. Those that know better know that is only part of the story. That's all I'm saying.
Ya know...I remember about 8 weeks ago I mentioned how badly this team missed Mike Munchak and everyone poo poo'd me and told me how good we were pass protecting. I'm gonna revisit that statement. This line started degenerating the moment Munchak left town...Now, almost no semblance of it left.
Only down 25!
