Panthers are 5th in scoring since trading Kelvin Benjamin

[RelaxImaPro]

Saw this tweet earlier and it's obviously something we've all talked about

However, that got me wanting to run some numbers of my own.  Seeing as we were the #1 scoring team in 2015, I got to thinking there's a pretty good chance we're the #1 scoring team period without Kelvin Benjamin since we drafted him.

Sure enough... we are.  683 total points without KB since we drafted, which is tops in the NFL over that time -- and keep in mind the trade was before the start of week 9 -- our bye week was in week 11 -- we obviously didn't score any points then.  Patriots are second with 644 points over that time period, who also had a post week 9 bye week.  Saints are 3rd with 618, but they had no bye week to screw with their totals, so PPG wise Pittsburgh would claim that 3rd spot average-wise.

I know we've all joked about it, but man, lol these stats are really starting to pile up.

We're also 22-3 now as well over that same time span.  Poor KB.

Sometimes, if the fit isn't right, even if the guy is good it doesn't always benefit the team.  

Nice job DG jk

Well like it or not,... he’s gone.

right now our offense is doing decent,.. still would like to have a legit receiver like an AJ Green or Antonio Brown or even a Keenan Allen,.. I still don’t feel like Funchess will ever be one of them. 

Funchess has exceeded all of my low expectations but he’s got a long way to go still.

Wonder where the Shula haters are gonna be when they see those numbers?

Also worth pointing out that Cam has 13 total TDs to 1 interception over that same span.  Becoming eerily similar to his 2nd half MVP season level numbers.

Cam is looking like the old 2015 MVP. Not having him stare down and forcing the ball to KB. 

Cam is spreading the ball all over the field.

I’ve told you all since he was drafted he was holding this offense back. The dude is lazy.

At 23 and the improvement hes made i have reason to think he could be those players you mentioned calibur by the times hes their age. 

 

The trend is up

I would point out that Cam is healthier now than he was at the beginning of the season.  And we are forcing more turnovers, ie short fields.  And the oline is playing better.  None of those things have much to do with KB.

I didn't like it....but I cannot argue with that.
