it's kind of refreshing to have a WR that good who isn't focused on himself, but rather the team and their goal together.

that isn't just a jab at smitty, it's on guys like meshawn johnson and all of those diva WRs who want to be the star of the game and bitch when they aren't the focus of the offense.

team >>>>> individual

i just lije where this kid's head is at and how he fits with the new mentality of the team. i just wish we had an OL and OC who could take this offense to the next level.

That he has individually played so incredibly but the offense has been non-existent should tell you all you need to know about the value of an individual receiver in the NFL. I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Kelvin Benjamin, but he's ultimately a possession receiver that will get 8 or less touches per game. Is that what this team needed more than anything else?

 

It is a bit unfair to look at it that way, though.

 

Plenty of offenses look bad even with a tremendous TE, HB, OT, OG, OC, or WR.  That doesn't mean those positions aren't valuable.  Just means you need to be strong across the board overall.  The only position on offense that can really change everything is QB, but we are talking elite QBs here.  And I would only consider Rodgers and Manning to be elite right now.  You see Cam playing extremely well but the offense being non-existent.  So it isn't really WR not being valuable because we could say the same thing for every other position in the NFL, defense or offense.  The unit has to be strong.  And even acquiring a great LT wouldn't solve the issues across the rest of the O-Line and then we'd be even worse at WR too.  It is a lose-lose situation.

If we don't count his 8 or less touches per game like you say, we would score 0 this game.
