Sherman on KB

[*FreeFua*]

@jjones9: Sherman on Benjamin: We were there in coverage &we were right on top of him. He made plays. He's going to grow...and do well in this league

I was hoping he'd say something like this after today's game. KB had a solid game today matched up against Sherman

And we do a roll out away from KB on 4th down.

And the Panthers coaches refused to go to him consistently. Sherman was noticeably frustrated playing KB all day. I am sure he is glad the Panthers coaching staff has a bunch of idiots at the helm.

Just imagine...  had he caught that TD, we most likely would've won AND everyone would be talking about him.  Instead, the only reason our game will be mentioned is that it "turned around Seattle's season."

[Who Said What?]

In the redzone I would have gone to him consistently.  It was an issue for Sherman all day.

Yep, he should've had it too. But he's a rookie and that stuff is going to happen. That's why I want another WR brought in, take off some of the pressure on KB

Yeah, too much to ask the OC to design plays getting the ball to KB, huh?

I know KB has a lot to learn, but it really does seem like we are underutilizing him, especially in the red zone and short/medium yardage situations.  One would think we could get him 6-8 targets a game from just running 10 yards and turning around since there wouldn't really be anything the defense could do about it and it wouldn't require our oline to pass protect any better than they are currently doing.

I've actively tried to avoid the subject for a few weeks now, but I have to say...  We HAD that WR on the roster until Gettleman decided he was no longer essential.

i don't think benjamin is under enough pressure.

 

the more i see benjamin play, the more i'm convinced he would really benefit from having the offense put on his shoulders.

 

the next offensive play after him missing the sure td catch should have been another pass right to him.

Agreed. When I said pressure I meant defenses game planning for him, Sherman covering him type thing. If we brought in a guy like VJax, Benji would then come out 1B receiver and have things open up for him a bit. I think it'd really help his development as well.

[Jackofalltrades]

That dropped TD though...

[PanthersClinic]

Tough drop in the redzone by KB today but he's been big all year. Imagine if we had a legit #2 to go with or precocious rookie.

Him and Greg Olsen should have the offensive game plan suited to their strengths in the red zone.  I don't know what is going on with that.
