What's up with Bode Miller?

Did anyone see the slalom Weltcup in Wengen today? Bode Miller seems to have lost his edge at the moment, he didn't even finish the second run today. He hasn't won a single championship point in the last races, incl. the downhills. Cann't be the Atomic's he's got now: he won everything at the beginning of the season. I guess it's the combination of slalom and downhill that he's now doing that's taking its toll. Things are not looking good for him for the World Championships end of this Month in Bormio...

Note:
I was in Wengen a couple of weeks ago myself, and tried this particular Weltcup slalom run. It's a beautiful run, but there are a couple of parts in the slope that have an angle of some 60 degrees On TV it looks so easy what these guys are doing, you have no idea how incredibly difficult these tracks are... Another thing that I noticed is how HUGE these Weltcup events are.
