Sherman on KB

[MCC]

We need a quick number 2 receiver to compliment him.  A Golden Tate mold of receiver. 

[Wanderlai]

KB is going to be a beast. He is the steal of the draft. I don't trust Carolina coaching to maximize his talent though.

[pstall]

He can catch a bomb or falling out of bounds but the money ball he treats it like a porcupine.

[J.Cage]

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."

Oh. My. Damn.

 

We are the rebound girl of the NFL.

Apparently they don't know what to do with anyone 6'5"

Thankfully this is true or Rivera and Shula would probably mess that one up too.

That's the problem, I think so many people are blinded by his acrobatic catches and the fact that he's a rookie.  IDK I guess you can't be too harsh on the guy he's really stepping into a role that shouldn't be in the first place.  But it's annoying seeing him become Jerry Rice when the ball is bad, to Keary Colbert when Cam places it right on the money.

 

 

Edit: But I do understand he won't be perfect I'm a walking contradiction.  If he was catching the easy balls but dropping the spectacular ones it would make more sense logically. But I will take this because it shows he has the potential, the easy catches will come with time.

Damn. You're right.

Ricky Proehl is our saving grace.

KB doesnt deserve ROY, aside from a few good catches can we all just admit a majority of his stats came during garbage time throughout this season

Garbage time= the first quarter?

Garbage time= the first quarter?

For the Panthers.. Yes actually lol

I can't really argue the past few weeks.

Kelvin Benjamin 

55.7 catching %

6.6 drop %

 

Demaryius Thomas

61.8 catching %

7.9 drop %

 

Calvin Johnson

59.5 catch %

8.1 drop %

 

So, can we stop complaining about his drops. He is a rookie. Expect it. How about looking at the plays they draw up for him, or the fact they rarely go back to him after he is overthrown or drops a catch. Target him 3 times and he will catch the third one if he misses on the first two. We have 3 downs the last time I checked. Oh and you have this QB who can run it in if they push coverage to KB or Olsen.

 

In the red zone, you draw up run pass options. 1st read LBs for the hand off; 2nd read Benjamin (if he is singled throw it up), 3rd read roll out to Olsen back side (if he is singled throw it to him near the sideline), 4th option Cam runs toward the pylon for a gain or score. No team will be able to match up with all 4 threats on 3 straight downs. Audible to a QB sneak if the backers are off. Cam gets 3+ yards per carry up the middle.

 

Stop with plays like the QB draw from the shotgun when you only need 1 yard. Do you even know what your players have succeeded at over the past 3 seasons? 3rd/4th and 2 or less is an automatic QB sneak. They know it is coming and defenses still struggle to stop it consistently.

 

When a game is on the line and you need points who would you send to the free throw line in a basketball game? Your 60% free throw shooter or your 90% free throw shooter? So, why do the Panthers coaches continue to choose the 60% free throw shooter? Is it difficult to ask a coach to know their players conversion percentages for different down and distance situations?

 

Something is seriously wrong with the on field awareness and the ability to track the pulse of a team/player with the Panthers coaching staff.

No.

TD - to put his team up in a win

TD - to tie Balt at 7

TD - to go up on Cincy

Most of his TDs aren't garbage time nor yards. All his plays today were while Car was up

[OriginalPantherDan]

they didn't throw it to KB or olsen very much today. all those terribly timed screens that for whatever reason cam cannot figure out how to throw accurately

the screen works when set up effectively, but more often than not, it was poorly set up.
