Well, this is actually bad news. Yes, the rookies do need the reps but so does Bene. Been a while since he played and he isn't an aged veteran. 

Exactly what I was thinking.  He's just going to get further behind, and that's bad for him, and our secondary as a whole.

I am a huge optimist at this point every year, but I just cannot see the positive in this. Bene is badly needed out there.

That's one of the reasons I think the hand DG played at CB was a little careless.

Why this is pretty bad news:

1. Bene will be asked to jump (basically) from the nickel to covering the #1 wr.  that is a bigger jump than from college to #2 cb.

2. We can play with 1 rookie CB out there--not 2.

3. It also suggests the break was pretty dang bad.  Some never recover--has he lost a step?  He was  a 4.69 40 guy at his pro day (4.63 at combine).  He can't afford to lose much speed.

      No, I'm starved for contention. If you can't see that and keep wanting to turn things like this back around on T-Mac, then you're just either being purposefully obtuse, or is a fan who is happy having 5-6 win seasons just because we're so used to the 3-4 win seasons and you like "just being better"

      You mean the guy who took over a franchise that hadn't had a losing season in the previous 4 seasons... who proceeded to get his team into the playoffs in 3 of his first 4 seasons, only to win 2 games in said playoffs, to then go on to having a 54-74 career record and never won another playoff game after those first two? Who then after being fired from that job, took over a team that was 30-18 in the 3 seasons before he got the job, got into the playoffs that first season, lost their first postseasons game, and then went on to have a 6-26 record over the next 2 seasons? You're literally proving my point by bringing up someone who's claim to fame is that quote. If you just play to win the game, you're never going to be a successful franchise.  You need to play to win the game while ALSO working to make your players better.  Having the former without the latter is a picture perfect recipe to become a stagnant franchise. That's how you work towards being a winning franchise who can contend in the postseason.  And sure, having a stagnant franchise that makes the playoffs every other season is better than what we currently are, but that's not what I strive for with our Panthers, I want to actually contend for championships in my lifetime.
