Clutchiest Clutch Catcher

It is our very own KB.  At first I was like WTF, but when you read the reasoning it is very interesting.  Here a blerb:

 

Quote

According to TruMedia, Benjamin’s been thrown to on 30.6 percent of the fourth-quarter routes he’s run. That’s tops in the NFL over the course of his career. Factor in his league-leading touchdowns-per-route average (0.034) and eighth-best yards-per-catch average (16.3), and Benjamin produces more offense every time he goes out for a late-game pass than anyone else on the planet.

Benjamin becomes elite when the fourth quarter begins

Good info.

Thrilled to see KB playing like the WR we'd all hoped he could be for the Panthers.  Given our 4th quarter struggles, we need guys who make the 4th Q their specialty to ball out.

Go KB go!  Hope he has a monster game tonight.

 

    I know you are just trying to be nice, but, no way we ALL thought he was going to  ball out. You know perfectly well, there are still plenty of folks who are still waiting for him to...this, that, or whatever.

    Why? I mean, why? I know you love to be all condescending. But, couldn't you at least have waited until someone said something stupid first?

So we’ll just ignore all the ignorant things people have been saying about him since coming back from his surgery?

    Oh no, not you. Listen. I don't care about other threads. This thread had not turned stupid as of yet. There was no earthly reason to come into this thread and say "Ooh, ooh, where the haterz be?". Before anyone came out and said anything "Ignorant". 

 

    Unless, you have an ulterior motive. Kinda like how some folks always do.

 

    But hey, Huddle on.

I would have to think the sea of ignorant posts about him being fat and lazy that were littered here all offseason would qualify as someone saying something stupid. I even interacted with fans who said they were essentially rooting for him to fail.

Anyway. Can you do me a favor and just stop quoting me? TIA.

    We are not talking about the past. We are talking about today, and this thread. You jumped in being all @TheRed. You high jacked a KB thread, to call out something that hadn't happened yet.

 

    I tell you what. Quit be a condescending butt head. And I will quit quoting you. As long as you act like my brother in law, whom I hate. I will continue to quote you to no end.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
