Benjamin needs more Smitty in him

Recommended Posts

He's had like 2-3 offensive pass inferences. One which probably took away our game closing win last week. poo one holding penalty where he mauled a guy

 

Yup Yup.

 

He's probably learning, trying to find a balance.

 

You can't blame him for that, especially after those two TD robbing Penalties, and the one or two others for decent gains.

first pass Cam made to him today in the end zone looked like one Smitty would have caught- it would have taken a guy committed to wrestling the damn ball away from the defender. I like KB but he needs to work on his ball aggression skills imo.

I completely agree, and I'd go a step further and say that one that he high pointed, he should have scored on as well. He did end up scoring later in the drive.

I do feel like he needs to be more aggressive on the field, but that will come with time and confidence. I also agree with most posters that this is the last thing we need to worry about.

Looking at the game today... This is about number 5036 of the things we should worry about.

 

 

yeah dude youre right.  touch downs dont matter.

 

 

OP has a point but he is a rookie and has been anointed the #1 receiver gig.  He can and most likely will get better in such situations and I hope in future weeks that is the only shortcoming we need to address as a team. 

 

In the Baltimore and Pittsburgh game I could pick out a few plays that tilted the tide.  In contrast this was a complete failure by the entire team and I cant point to a single play that really tilted the outcome. 

 

Sometimes you lose.

I think the pass was behind him a little and with the momentum he had, could not adjust early.

Sorry guys but it is a problem imo at this point.  KB seems lacksadaisacal - I want fire out of my number 1 WR

 

I don't disagree with you. I will say, however, that I am not sure that KB is a true WR1.  He is probably more of a 1-2 hybrid.  That being said, we need another competitive WR with some attitude in our midst,

    • yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.
    • I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.  
    • I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
