Someone on here suggested he played with a concussion. I can't vouch for that but his spastic play surely appeared to some to be a result of a degree of brain trauma. Even Ben being locked into one guy and missing an open Heath is uncharacteristic.
I'll also add that I felt Capers should be credited with putting together a good anti-Ben-magic game plan and his players did a good job executing their assignments imo
