Thought I got great value when I drafted him...figured he would be mediocre on the road but borderline elite at home especially with Bryant returning.

Haven't watched Pitt this year...is the OL garbage or is Ben getting fatter? Read a report where even Antonio Brown is getting frustrated. Is Ben broke?

The passing game just isn’t clicking yet... they’re also not dumping it off to Bell 10 Times a game like last year so Ben isn’t getting the “easy” completions.

He’s played 3/4 games on the road ?

Technically yes but 2 of those road games were good weather games against far inferior opponnents Chicago and Cleveland.

In addition he is rated 23rd at his position...there is just too much talent on that team to justify his play so far IMO.

With Ben since 2014, it doesn't matter how good the weather is on the road, he just doesn't put up fantasy points away from Heinz Field.

About to have some big questions. I'm thinking about starting Goff in his spot in one league, and I'll probably start Luck in the other the moment he is cleared.

Starting to worry a bit about Ben myself, had to trade for Stafford (who outside of wk 1 hasn't looked all that great either) for some cover. Wish I would've been able to jump on Watson while I had the chance but here's to hoping Ben figures it out

Heath Miller is gone
Brown is sulking
They developed all this talent after Bryant's absence, decided to get rid of all of them, and now have a rookie as their WR3

They are 3-1 after playing 3 road games

The narrative for years has been bad on the road, more so than any other player. Plays 3/4 on the road, people freak out. I can’t

Out of nowhere he'll come up with a 5 TD game. He always does.

And it'll be the first week I bench him. It already happened with me for Cam in another league.

I'm going to try and ride with him for a little while because he's my backup to Carr.

I get it...I just dont know how it is possible to suck against the Bears and Browns.

Urlacher and Peanut don't play there anymore

And the Browns are still the Browns.
