In fact, if I had my life savings bet on a game and I needed a TD in the final 2 minutes to win, I'd want Ben to be at QB because he's super-clutch. However, expecting him to be pinpoint accurate from pass #1 to pass #40 isn't realistic. I'm not saying he's not an excellent QB but he can't do it all by himself. And a big part of that is giving him a running game to take some of the pressure off. Unfortunately, I don't think Arians gets this. Ben is excellent at game winning drives.

If Rashard is given the carries he'll have no problems carrying the load. He's young big and strong. Ben is excellent at game winning drives(except sunday) but he shouldn't have to do it week in and out. Put the ball on the ground once we are ahead and eat up some of that clock. No need to throw 40+ passes with a good ground game. I agree that we need to get back to the run. If Rashard is given the carries he’ll have no problems carrying the load. He’s young big and strong.
