Only those 5/11 completions per game to benjamin have been translated into 4/6 completions to Olsen and 3/5 completions to ginn/brown/funchess

Benjamin obviously did not make the panthers more dangerous (7-8-1 compared to 15-1)

Look at OBJ
Evans
Julio
Hopkins
Calvin
Watkins
Cooper
Landry


Being a good wr doesn't make the team good


Nothing was clicking last year at all. On either side. Don't even compare last year to this year.

So are you arguing that Benjamin is not going to be a valuable asset to the Panthers next year?

And the people you listed makes the team much better vs them not being on the team does it not?


He's not that great of a reciever...Ginn has put up similar numbers in his stead. KB is big and slow, he's a deep threat that isn't that great at catching. I'm sure hell get targets next year but I think cam has learned his lesson about targeting him 10x a game

Almost the exact same roster and panthers got hot at the end of last season, they clicked enough to make the playoffs and win a game

Watch a highlights tape of kelvin benjamin or better yet watch game film showing all his drops/lack of separation


He's really not a special talent at all, most of his TDs was can chucking the ball up and him MAYBe catching it purely because of his size

Even if he isn't great, he is still considered their number 1 WR and defense would treat it as such and because of that fact alone, it would open up to other wr or Olsen (because Olsen is essentially the true #1 receiver lol) and that makes it dangerous.

But you're right though, Benjamin hasn't done much to prove himself since he seems to be injury prone but if I were a Panthers fan, I would be excited at the prospect next year and what he is going to bring to the table for the team.

Yea, ignore me and pretend that if the panthers had benjamin they'd be 18-0 with an average victory margin of 20pts :rolleyes:

Cams completion % is up, TDs, pass ypg (I say per game cuz he didn't play full season last year) offense is on the field longer so defense is better rested and they can control pace of game

Panthers aint better with KB and the evidence is there

Ginn is faster and funchess is a better possession reciever, there's enough there to get Olsen open. I'm sure KB will be the wr1 or we2 depending on funchess development this offseason. I doubt he has a 1k yard season tho

they are not. when kb was with us last year he was our only threat. and when he is back next year with talent to line up beside him it will show.

pending our defense doesnt go through too many changes, we will be a much more dominant team next year, and thats saying something because we were extremely dominant for most of the season.

Lol ok. Kb will have over 1k yards again next year.

Funchess has had some issues going back to his Michigan career.
