Ben't Retirement

[Ernie]

Let's start the discussion...

Im saying he's done. Embarassing playoff loss at home. I bet the wife talks him into retirement.

[SteelBucks]

He’ll be back. I guarantee it.

Who cares...

Who cares...

I do.......

Ben has to be discouraged with the Defense. They put up 42 points today AND LOST. I mean holy hell, is that a joke.

I see Ben return if they don’t re-sign Haley and let him be involved with picking the new O-coordinator. He may also wait to see how they address the D.

Tough to end end the career on one of the worst playoff losses ever, at home.

Let Haley leave (contract is reportedly expiring) and promote Fichtner or maybe even Munchak. Then, hire Darrell Bevell to be QB coach.

This is what Im saying... Ben's going to look at it as too many gaps to fill to be serious contenders..

Arians is available. (Too soon for a joke?)

[Steelgal]

I don't think Ben is done, but wives can be persuasive so who knows. Haley HAS to go or it only gets worse. He and Ben can't work together. Promote Munchak to OC.

I chuckled (but only not to cry...)

I disagree. If they tag Bell again, then the Bs are intact. The O line is intact. You need a replacement for Shazier on defense...hard to replace a guy more than 10 weeks into the season.

Does it really matter any more.
We have a franchise QB who is top 5 in the league.
We have the best WR in the game.
We have one of the best if not the best RB in the league.
We have an emerging star at the other WR spot in JuJu.
We cant win a playoff game at home or get past the Patriots.
So again does it really matter unless we get a defense that can play when it counts?

I think letting Haley walk will be Ben's price to stay.

Wow... a lot more than Shazier needs replaced on that Defense.
