This team is better without Benjamin, our only well executed drive of the game came after he went out. Funchess excels in that primary WR role, KB is to slow, and ineffective. This is what we saw his rookie season (he puts up stats, but is a break light to offensive consistency), this is what we saw the year he comes back to a Super Bowl roster, and it is what we saw today. (and the last two weeks) I'm done with Kelvin Benjamin, and I want to see Shepard, Samuel and Funchess get the playing time.

Of all the things wrong with this team, you single out our only legit WR. People need to stop referencing 2015 whenever trying to make a point. It was an anomaly. The way our defense turned the ball over that year, it didn't matter whether or not KB was injured, we were going to be the highest scoring offense because of opportunities. KB is our only legit WR. We need him.

Let's be honest here. KB's not really legit at this point. He has flashes but a lot of terrible play as well. He could still put it together this year but I'm not really too optimistic about him contributing here long term.

When someone says a thread is the worst and clearly in denial. The guy who posted about cam struggling in bringing in derek wasnt completely wrong. Benjamin is a lost cause who drops more passes than he brings in. Sick of hearing all these awesome catches in training camp, poo save it for the season then.

      Bryce Young PFF - Week 16

      The reality is Bryce outplayed a Probowl QB vs a better defense with inferior weapons. IDK what else you can ask for from your #1 overall pick that you gave up the farm for

      Bryce Young PFF - Week 16

      By KSpan · Posted

      Ah yes, the classic and timeless 'Big Time Throws' HOF metric. Gold star for Bryce and the other QBs that make Big Time Throws. That eyeroll aside, my position has always been that Bryce's ceiling is Bridgewater/Smith levels of effectiveness, which is not good enough to have a consistent shot at winning Super Bowls in today's NFL. My issue and concern with Bryce remains as it has always been - a lack of downfield dynamics. My position has also been that this is what really hampered the Saints with Brees at QB for the last nearly decade, the inability to truly attack downfield vs the top competition when the opportunities presented themselves. That is likely complicated somewhat by the receivers on the roster and time will continue to sort that out if the roster is effectively managed. After watching the second half yesterday there were some very good throws, chiefly the throw over the middle while taking the shot that absolutely should have been roughing and then the superbly-placed TD to Moore, but still only 10 points produced and an inability to really close it out. That complete whiff on the third down pass was an untimely mistake but the kind that happens to all QBs and I don't think that's really outside of Bryce's current range of possibilities on any given throw anyway. I chuckled at the irony given all of the 'clutch' talk recently, but that's not really here or there when assessing the throw itself. Yes, 30 points should be enough to win an NFL game, but the best teams have to be able to put up points and sustain drives when needed even if carrying an unreasonable part of the load. Getting 'close' with teams like the Chiefs and Eagles is to me more a signal of the limitations I mentioned earlier (Saints-esque inability to overcome the best competition) rather than an overly positive sign, and only time will tell if he and the team can move past that. Hopefully these final games show some increased dynamics and a continued growth toward true downfield effectiveness.
