Kelvin Benjamin has pretty much been completely forgot about...

Many Panther fans would have argued last year that KB was just as good as Odell Beckham. Both rookies are built the same and would make some serious Highlights throughout the season. While OBJ did pull away stat wise from KB towards the end of the year, many considered them both to be the up and coming face of WRs. 

The story this year has been (after KB went down) about Cam doing more with less than stellar WRs. Most media outlets and "new" Panther fans really know nothing about KB. 

I am all about the game this week, but it is nice to know that next year, we get KB back. And I am willing to bet he is absolutely going to ball out on epic levels!

Keep Pounding KB!

Haven't forgotten about KB.  Miss him. Was so glad to see him on the sidelines and in the celebratory pix with the team in the final minutes of the Atlanta game, that at least in some small way he gets to be part of what's happening.

Thrilled our offense has managed to find a way to thrive without him.  It still surprises me greatly!  But love it...   This season is so special I'm not focusing on next year when KB will be back, but oh yeah, it has the potential to be even MORE exciting.  Hard to imagine.

    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season? 
    • Whatever they are in totality the cowboys are beat up all to hell on both sides of the ball and even that was too much for lil Bryce to overcome.  Bryce defenders have to hype up every other team and trash every other part of the panthers just because of the situation they’ve put themselves in. 
    • JB had a first round grade in the eyes of a lot scouts based on HIS TALENT LEVEL. If not for the injury he would have gone higher in the draft, possibly between the middle and the end of round 1. To get him just before the 50th pick is a steal. He'd be on a 4 year deal. You can't even renegotiate until the end of the season 3. You're basically paying him nothing for 3 seasons. I don't buy into all back are interchangeable. No they're not. You have average backs, good backs, then your great-exceptional backs. The latter category doesn't grow on trees. If a back is special it pays to keep them. The key is knowing the difference between the first two categories and the third one.
