The problem really is that his deep accuracy is gone but Haley still calls like a dozen streaks down the sideline per game.

1st series of the game, Ben delivers a perfectly thrown 41 yard bomb to AB for a TD on a free play.

TFF: Ben's deep ball is gone imo

And then finished the first half 10/22. He hasn't been nearly as successful throwing deep as the last couple years yet he's still first in deep pass attempts per game.

Well, turns out you can't force Roethlisberger to play like Brady. It doesn't work

OTOH the offense has been its most productive when it's primarily a series of quick 5-15 yard passes.

He's not washed up, he's just not quite what he was 2-3 years ago and the offense hasn't adjusted to that.

Blame on the offense not living up to its potential is definitely 90+% on Haley though.

Also Mendenhall, same season.

I just watched a video of it on youtube and it sure looks like Ray makes a snapping motion while holding on to Mendenhall in the pileup. Impossible to tell for sure though his back is covering everything.

Lewis admitted after the game to doing that with intent to injure.

I hate that Walsh is gonna take heat for this, because this loss was Carroll's fault.

Yeah, the fake fg call was really stupid and at the end a 52 harder is far from a guaranteed kick even for a good kicker.
