Was hoping someone noticed - great thread. Love Benson's track speed and soft hands - once he had the ball in his mitts he was gone. In fact, last couple games the TE's have made the slot problems disappear: better blocking; TE receptions take pressure off the WR's; big, physical targets; and they're hard to bring down. More please.Really encouraged by his athleticism and good hands. Looking forward to seeing him grow in this offense to a major weapon.
I like this kid...….brings speed to the TE position we need, since we lack true burners at WR. He's made plays every chance he's had to get on the field.
Let Riley and Johnson sit, play Harris, Hacket, Jackson, and Benson as your receivers. Bigger, better blocking for screens, also running players.I don’t like this kid at all !!! I love him !
3 tds I saw in scrimmage to !
Above my pay grade to say . HCDB I’m sure is in the labLet Riley and Johnson sit, play Harris, Hacket, Jackson, and Benson as your receivers. Bigger, better blocking for screens, also running players.
I like that. Solid set. Then have moe as a great receiving back. Now if we get the OL to block...Let Riley and Johnson sit, play Harris, Hacket, Jackson, and Benson as your receivers. Bigger, better blocking for screens, also running players.
2 weeks ago tried a screen play around the 17 in front of me. Had Riley and Johnson blocking for Harris, play was blown up. The defenders ran thru both of them. It's playing 9 on11 which makes it harder on the OL.Above my pay grade to say . HCDB I’m sure is in the lab
PA Flood or the PA TE Postdouble TE set was a madden football killer. my go to play. computer couldn't stop it.
That’s a good suggestion for the radio show.Just was thinking about our awful WR screens this year in comparison to last year.
My fix-
Put benson and Hackett as the blocking WRs on the outside with nykeim/Harris/Riley/Jackson behind them.
Now it isn’t obvious when only 1 WR is out there. You could do soooo much with this set. Then you have two blocking threats in front of our WRs.
Thoughts?
That speed... Jeesh. Imagine him at DE.I'm just amazed no one has wanted him to put on 100 lbs and play DT. Yet.
I'm pretty sure we actually did run this on Saturday and I think it worked pretty well. Watching Hackett or Benson block on those screens is so much smoother than Riley tussling with a guy 4 inches and 30 pounds largerJust was thinking about our awful WR screens this year in comparison to last year.

True. I guess I just haven’t seen any significant contribution from that play so far this year.Our WR screens have been so-so. I wouldn't say they have been awful.
