Ben was digreesing, Dizz.
I submit that the best "offense" by far under BA was his first season as OC.
We had NO speedster like Wallace and Ben threw 32 TDs.
Bens best with Wallace before was 26 TDs when he missed just ONE GAME.
Ben did that last year while absent THREE games.
We have more talent at receiver yet Ben numbers were worse.
Since the SB LOSS Ben threw 17 Tds in 2010 and 21 in 2011.
He threw 26 last year while MISSING THREE GAMES and suffering the most drops in his career.
Forcing the ball deep too much created more sacks, stalled drives, and ironically results in FEWER TDs.
Bens highes TD percent seasons are:
2005- Before Arians as OC and Wallace
2004- Before Arians as OC and Wallace
2007- With Arians before he became obsessed with bombs to Wallace because Wallace was not on the team
2013- No Arians and Wallace de-emphasized
Fact Arians plus Wallace averages about 20 TDs a season for Ben.
He had 26 last year
Yes, Ben missed several games in 2010 when he had 17 TDs true.
But in 2013 under Haley he DID THAT (17 TDs) in only 8 games.
The whole we dont throw deep to Wallace enough with Haley hurts our offense, simply holds no merit whatsoever.
