    Yup, that's the one, the Titans rushed three and Ben had all day, Archer was clear after about 2 seconds because of miscommunication in the secondary, Ben just didn't' see him.

        Just listened to Charlie Batch on SNR. He said that the play wasn't designed for Dri to run that pattern. Ben wasn't expecting him to be there and wide open like that, so he didn't even look in that area. Certainly makes sense, since Ben does like taking the deep shots when it's there.

          That is certainly a very plausible explanation for what happened. Ben, it appeared, didn't even look to his left on the play and he had plenty of time until he inexplicably ran into a sack.

            Yea, that was an odd play from start to end, Ben takes sacks, but he doesn't normally run into them.
