GG Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) In all seriousness, if he has another clunker game, don’t be surprised if he’s IRd with an injury. Bills will not release him because of comp pick formula. Edited September 26, 2018 by GG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I think he will have a big game this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Yet another star staring a big payday in the face but too lazy or too derpy to make it happen. Even if he hates Buffalo, all he has to do is play great for one year and he's set for life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB has one good player in their secondary and he isn’t a cornerback. Allen showed what he can do last week and that will raise KB’s stock and he has to know that. I’m sure his agent has been in his ear all week. Factor in that Arod is going to score points, the Bills will be passing the ball and someone is going to need to catch it. The match up favors a good game for the big guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not likely- but how awesome would that be A rookie can't verbally get all over a veteran's arse. It wouldn't work. That's what the play hurdling Barr was about. It's a gauntlet. It's a "here's what I got athletically, here's what I'm willing to do to get the team a 1st down. What YOU got?" moment. 12 hours ago, Irv said: Let him go. No effort. No talent. He's got talent right enough. That's what's so frustrating. He could if he would, but his head and his heart aren't there. Let him go? Who we got behind him?

Chandler#81 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 At this rate, he’ll be available at a decent price next year. The armspan of an eagle means nothing to a pigeon who can’t grab. Anyone here interested in offering a much lower 2 year deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude looks apathetic and blames everybody else. He's in a contract year, this was the "prove it year" and he looks completely checked out. If he cares this little on a contract year then I'm not sure what can motivate him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Landing Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 At the very least, the entire team got a shot in the arm vs. the Vikes. And, it did look like Benjimin was better in the second half (granted, Daboll took his foot off the gas at that point). But, maybe that enthusiasm will help get Benjimin's head back in the game? That would be the optimistic take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 My thoughts drift back to the whole KB/Cam Newton on the field conversation thing...... With every passing game I am more on Cam Newton's side of this.....which is sad because I ALWAYS give my bills players the benefit of the doubt KB needs to pull his head out of his ass and play like he wants to be paid 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, he's right about Foster and the long ball, but Holmes made a couple clutch catches one on the goal line that set up the touch, and just missed getting his 2nd foot inbounds on another. He's also been clutch in blocking when asked. Jones made a couple adjustments to help Allen out vs. Chargers. He's caught 3 of his 4 targets last 2 weeks, and he's been open other times. Benjamin caught 2 of 3 and 3 of 5 last 2 weeks. While you'd like to see him do better, a 60% WR is as good as he's ever been in his career so that's not "a case of the dropsies" that's STD KB. He was 50/50 his first two (good yardage) years in the league. It's more his attitude, to me - the way he's whiffing blocks, the way he didn't try on the onside kick, his general demeanor seems to be like "homey don't care" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy Maclin - yes, I know he snubbed us and may still have a hamstring issue Jeremy Kerley - yes, I know we cut him Dontrelle Inman Jeff Janis Dez Bryant - yes, I know... Kendall Wright Kenny Britt Brandon Tate Markus Wheaton All of these guys are in that 27-30 range and could be useful vets that likely want to prove they still have it instead of stone hands Benjamin or can get separation out of bounds Foster.
