I blame the o-line and the play calling for the large portion of his problems. Still, he's the single most expensive non-factor in the NFL.

In defence of Deuce and the O Line, its hard to get the running game going when you are down 14 points, trying to catch up in the 4th. If our defence would give us a chance maby we could get the run game started.

I believe that if Deuce can't be effective running the ball consistently, then pass to him a couple of times. Short passes having him run for yards after the catch will open up the offense a little. There's no reason why we should throw less than 3 passes to Deuce in a game.

Another year with your griping about the O- line ???

They could rebuild it with the starting line for the N.F.C. Pro Bowl team and opposing teams would still spy Deuce and Brooks would still not be able to get 8 out of the box and would take too long making his reads .....

Face it -- they are stacking the line and taking away the deep pass to make AB beat them with the short pass. Ab has not been consistent enough to sustain a long drive using the short pass.
