Kelvin Benjamin sad after ATL Postgame

You could see how KB looked during the post game talk and I doubt it was because he is camera shy, i bet he knew he could have done better and I hope it doesn't get him too down and he gives it his all come playoffs. He is a rookie and still very much a young man. All he needs to do is work on those hands and always keeping focused like he has shown us when he catches balls no player let alone a rookie(not named OBJ)has any business catching, disappointment like these can only make him stronger! #Keep Pounding

Rookie or not, dropping passes excuses are officially worth nothing now. It's playoff time and he's being paid big money to catch passes and block DB'S..... but mostly JUST to catch passes.

 

EVERY PLAYER, including rookies, need to step up their play. Norwell has, Ealy has, Bene has, Trai has, tre has...... it's time for our first round pick to step his play up for playoffs. No execuses.

It takes a certain amount of refined skill and coordination to have good hands. Not everyone can just go out there develop good hands this late in their career. Sort of similar to ball-handling and shooting in basketball. 

 

This isn't no sure easy thing KB can fix. Sure he can improve no doubt, but its also possible he never really fixes his dropsie problem.

I said that KB was the right pick given where we ending up selecting.

 

As an FSU alum, I attended 3 of our home games in Tallahassee last year, and watched every FSU game on TV. There was a reason that he was not projected as a top 10 pick despite having a top 10 WR body and skill set.

 

He drops too many routine passes, and still yet, is not a WR that can dominate a football game like some of his rookie classmates. It is a constant of KB to drop simply passes and then make spectacular ones the next series or quarter. The problem is those drops are drive killers and CAN cause a QB to quickly lose confidence in him.

 

At the end of the day, he is a great WR for where he was selected and given the alternatives. 

 

But that doesn't mean that given that fact that he is the end all of our WR core, that 4 other rookie WRs this past year couldn't have achieve at least as good numbers in this offense.

 

He just needs to keep working, and the Panthers FO needs to get him some help to keep defenses from double teaming him.

    • It's a decent vid with compelling reasons for his opinion. But, my thing is is that you simply can't draft McMillan thinking he is a surefire WR1. There are questions. His 40---rightly or wrongly---will play a part. I'd think that his splits (which will speak more to his game translating to the pros in my mind) are more important.  As much as you're trying to sell us that McMillan is a don't-overthink-it-type-of-player, I wouldn't say that's the case. Workouts will play a part in all of this.  At this point, I like the thought of Tetairoa. That's as much as I can give you right now.
    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game to go around   and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important.
