Sherman on KB


*FreeFua*

Recommended Posts

@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

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."

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

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.

    • I saw that too--and what you said made sense because there is something like that in the rules--said that he is unlikely to get picked up (and I was not suggesting that we do) and Jones wants to go to a winning team.   After getting beaten to death in NY behind a sub par OL, poor WRs, and brutal fan base, I get it. 
    • True.  Sam and Baker did not do well here but went on to better things under better coaching, circumstances or both.  The real question is, ‘why aren’t the Panthers able to get improved performance out of ‘broken toys’, similar to Minnesota and Tampa? That is a rhetorical question.  I think we know the answer.   [The cultural reference to Pogo dates me, I’ll admit.]
    • Did I mention that he was on worse teams?  Yes.  Do QBs alone win games?  No.  Did Cam, on a much better team with some awesome defenses ever have 2 consecutive winning seasons?  No.  So now you are cherry picking,  If the overall stats are similar, you take a look at him.   I told you that you look at his skill set---but you wanted to tell me that he sucks and mentioned performance.  I just presented performance--and his numbers are very similar to Cam Newton's numbers--a player most call the best Panther QB ever--and I agree.  By the way, Fumbles are evidence of how bad his OL has been--so you are saying that a QB in a situation worse than Cam's who has stats and physical abilities very similar to Cam's should not be given a look when you have Bryce Young at QB?  You are going with that story because you simply talked your way into a corner and now you are trying to save face.  No good GM would do what you suggest because "he sucks."  Sorry, but the facts do not support you.  But no matter what eye-opening details I provide, there are some who are going to go their Google machines to try to find some reason to support an ignorant approach to developing the QB position.  You ignored the similarities to Cam and went cherry picking.  I know what you are doing--but I am only suggesting (as I have stated before) that we bring him in as one of three approaches to resolving the QB issue. Compete with Bryce and draft a QB. Basically, I am suggesting that Jones has the potential to replace Dalton and compete with Young.  He is a battered stock that could get better in a better situation--that is human nature.  Instead, I am called a Daniel Jones lover and superfan.  That is good debate--But a real sign of mature thinking is the inability to LOGICALLY consider alternative perspectives--which is actually a characteristic of intelligence.  Just so you know, I critique and perform research in my job.  I am often amazed at how the numbers do not support my suppositions.  I learned that my impression is often wrong until I look at the data.  In this case, I have considered all the important variables and he should get a shot.  Numbers don't lie--and when you and others resort to twisted name calling directed toward the poster--it verifies my position.
