Keep your mouth shut Kelvin, and try to catch the football.


Dude is not nearly as good as this board thinks he is.

 

 

Benjamin is a walking mismatch on just about any short, medium or red-zone route.  He is not a game-breaker over the top.  So if that's what you meant, I totally agree he lacks a significant part of the package to be a great/top-tier receiver.

 

In Kelvin's defense, Cam's strength is not a quick passing game, hitting guys in stride or ball placement to advantage the receiver.  Never has been and likely never will be.  Kelvin has a legitimate point in saying there are better QBs for him to be paired with....I think another point of frustration for Benjamin is that Greg Olsen was the Cam favored guy and Olsen got more match-ups that allowed for clear separation which is what Cam wanted.

 

All in all, I too agree, that Kelvin should have shut up, but its out there now and since the Bills play the Panthers on Thursday night -- it might be fun.  Not sure I have ever seen bulletin board material for a preseason game...

Newton has shown thoughout his career that he’s petulant, inaccurate and easily frustrated -which are never good for a QB. I understand #13. He just doesn’t need to bring heat on himself or the team. jmo.

Yes, but claiming that he would have been better with “any other quarterback” is ridiculous. Newton isn’t Brady, but he’s not a bottom tier QB like many people here seem to think. I’d take Newton over Benjamin on my team every day of the week.

Even if it's true, it's not too cool to call Newton out like that.  I do like though that he seems to feel comfortable enough to say these things as a member of the Bills.  That tells me he likes it here and wants to help build a winner here.

Nathan Peterman and AJ McCarron >>> Cam Newton

Ummm....maybe some sort of weird compilation of the best traits of both against Cam...sure....add in Allen's arm and speed and probably have a winner.

Depends on what he thinks about josh Allen. Because if he signs here it will be largely due to the Qb if you take his comments seriously. And not sure how much he will actually play with him this year.

Hopefully Josh Allen >>>> Cam

 

Of course that's the hope. It's just funny that he's firing shots at Cam when we might have to deal with Nasty Nate or AJ to start the season.
