Kelvin Benjamin: Panthers Playmaker


firefox1234

Recommended Posts

After 3 weeks i think it is about time the Panthers offense start getting KB involved from the get go! The running game isnt gonna carry us and the defense can only give the offense so much time to score.

Kelvin Benjamin had shown he can come big and make plays when we need it the most also in my opinion this would help him evolve as a WR and truly reinforce his chemistry with Cam. I am surprised this has not been mentioned sooner but I think its time KB is given his big boy pants, he has shown he deserves them!

Our offense right now lacks spark and I like to think Shula realizes that. Cam at the moment cant be the one making all the plays with his feet since his injuries seem to be catching up to him. KB needs to be more involved from the start and force defenses to honour him which will inturn open up space for other players.

Just imagine a stacked offense where defenses have to keep a safety to watch KB, a linebacker or corner watching Olsen and at the same time they have to worry about Cam and the other WRs. We could even see a revival of our running game in the process. Call me an idiot but in my opinion this is a top 5 offense just ready to ignite!

The steelers loss may hurt but in my opinion it showed that this offense has huge amounts of untapped potential but for some reason Shula or whoever isnt using it. I hope things start clicking soon or else this season will be a long one. How long do you think our defense can hold while our snail paced offense takes its time against better teams like Seattle, Chicago, and Green Bay comin up.

I think Cam missing out on preseason and training camp is starting to show.

 

DA has already figured out that one-on-one with KB means throw a soft pitch in the air for him to go get. It really ain't that hard. 

 

Cam did. KB mis-timed his jump. Should have been a TD

 

He also did it last week, but KB was out of bounds

Cam is completing nearly 70% of his passes while playing with broken ribs behind the worst OL in the league.

Cam haters need to go shoot themselves.

lindseyj, I am in no way a Cam hater. I'm one of his biggest proponents and always have been - at least after the Panthers drafted him. I think he's in extraordinary talent that I've really never seen before. 

 

Injuries, OL play and lack of running game aside, I thought Cam could have taken more shots to KB when the Steelers were in man-to-man coverage. KB's a mismatch on any one DB. Exploit the mismatch until they adjust. Make them adjust and then find the weakness created by that adjustment.

    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season? 
    • Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in. 
    • JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
