Above all, I feel terrible for Benji

[tiger7_88]

Ever since he was drafted last year, I've come to like the kid more and more.  Its fair to say he turned my attitude around quickly with his attitude and effort.  And the looks thus far in this training camp is that he had worked hard in the offseason and was primed for his break-out season.

I can't imagine how terrible HE feels right now.  And I feel awful for him.

As for the team?  These things happen in football.  Maybe I've been around this football thing as a fan too long (45+ years) to panic about injuries anymore.  Injuries happen.  And they happen a LOT.  Its the nature of the game.  The team will either take up the slack... or not.  Nothing you or I can do about it.

And this is when and where salary cap flexibility comes in.  This is why GM's like to have a little padding in that cap instead of signing regulars right up to the limit.  Now will G-Man sign anyone to replace KB (ex. Reggie Wayne?)?  Well, that remains to be seen.  But, even if he doesn't sign a replacement, IMO he's earned our trust on that decision.

Time to just Keep Pounding.  Its all we can do.

I just hope the kid gets 100% healthy by the time he comes back and doesn't rush it.
