Yuck that was bad but we see it with Conley, Kelce and Harris all the time usually a concentration problem probably thinking of a fancy td celebration. Its hard to be a pro football player. [Reply]

According to the NFL's Next Gen Stats, Benjamin is dead last in the league in catch rate at 35 percent. Catch rate is the percentage of targets that result in a reception. [Reply]

Yup how Conley holding that ball like a loaf of bread. [Reply]
It's funny/strange/peculiar/sad that I was actually thinking about this damn play yesterday. I mean, thinking about a freaking dropped td pass on Christmas Day! I think it got to me.
When it happened, I told myself that our brand-new, giant receiver probably wasn't accustomed to catching footballs thrown with that sort of velocity. But the more I thought about it, I decided our brand-new, giant receiver is a tool. You have basically one damn job when you're facing the QB and the ball hits you in the numbers. One job.
Slightly behind him. Slightly. It hit him in the "1" and bounced off.
I have standards in my brand-new, giant receivers; if the damn ball hits in you in your numbers ... or even one of your damn numbers ... and you're facing the QB ... and you're in the EZ ... catch the freaking rock. It's a simple standard. Nothing crazy.
As for the jugs machine, I'm certainly not philosophically opposed to the idea. (Although dunking his brand-new, giant ass in a steaming vat of rancid orangutan urine would also be fine). On the other hand, this dude has been playing receiver his entire life. Receivers have one freaking job; receive.
