Ugh.

This interview makes me nervous.

1) He sounds whiney as hell. I'm sorry, he just does.

2) His comments show a lack of professionalism. It almost doesn't matter how bad the situation was. You just don't come out with these sorts of comments about a former teammate. It belies a lack of maturity. This will not go unnoticed in the Bills locker room. 

3) What does this bode for the future? If he wasn't satisfied with Cam Newton throwing him the ball because of his accuracy issues, how's he going to feel about McCarron, or Allen, or Peterman with their, you know, accuracy issues?

I don't think I've seen a receiver trash a former QB and team to this level since TO. 

 

Except TO was the catalyst for the Superbowl Eagles and KB was the guy watching his team make the Superbowl without him.

I agree Kelvin, Cam sux.

Grass is always greener on the other side.

 

Cam Newton is not the most accurate QB, but you can do a lot worse.

[Ol Dirty B]

Couldn't imagine this board if Sammy said the same about Tyrod or the quitter. 

 

Cam is a good QB. Better than anything we have, isn't cam regularly trotted out as the Allen comparison now he's garbage?

 

Sammy said he wants to develop with a QB like Mahomes, and his words were twisted into a shot at Goff, not even Bills related. Not everyone has been completely a home in this thread, but those defending him, wow.

 

Someone talking about how Cam doesn't get the ball out fast and excel in a quick passing game. Neither does Kelvin. He's a solid WE, but he's all about size and winning balls. Not beating a guy of the LOS, and getting separation. He's near the bottom of the league in terms of separation.

Name the receivers Cam “ sucky QB” Newton had in his 2015 League MVP SB season?

Sure seems to me like he's able to high point the ball and to play like Tarzan. I don't know too many untalented #2 receivers that would make that catch between Richard Sherman and Earl Thomas.

Personally, I think both pro and anti Benjamin people are over the top in their praise and criticism, respectively. He's probably not as good as his supporters claim he is, and he's definitely not as bad as his detractors claim he is. Exaggeration and hyperbole on both sides.

 

I think we would both agree and disagree to an extent. He is excellent at high pointing the ball, that's his skill set. I actually think that meshes with cam well. I don't understand any complaints towards the QB. Organizationally, I can understand him not feeling great about Carolina.

 prove me wrong Kid

 

but his words were poorly chosen indeed

Don’t forget Brenton Bersin and Dameire Byrd?

Point being, Cam raised the level of a bunch of mediocre to bad receivers to League leading offense status.

Yes, he had a running game and D but he was the oil that made that whole engine run smoothly.

I hope to Sweet Baby Jesus that JA gets to that level.

This board will be one big Hippy Kumbaya Love- fest.

Greg Olsen

His best target, by far??

[3rdand12]

Okay sarcasm off/
 but he should keep his inner thoughts in check. I am not fond of Players who feel the need to share their emotions . They have therapists for that lol

okay now sarcasm truly off/

 

 

Go Bills

Theres also some dynamic that his current gm was involved in that Carolina front office. Which adds an interesting wrinkle. 

 

And that the guy that gm drafted is another guy that has a boatload of physical gifts but questionable accuracy. And once helped draft and now traded for KB.

 

KB saying that he’d have been better off without Carolina and cam has to play an even stranger note to beanes ear than ours

[Bing Bong]

"anybody! Anybody that's not Cam. You know like Eli, Rodgers, Big Ben, anybody!" Well KB you can't just list every Superbowl winning QB you know and call them anybody.

I believe Ted Ginn Jr made Cam not miss KB a beat

They went 15-1, went to the SB, & Newton won the MVP with Ted Ginn as his top wr when Kelvin missed the entire year.  Benjamin should probsbly STFU, especially in a contract year. 

Then Cam puked in the SB and sucked the following year. KB said his piece now it's on him to back it up. 

[Jerome007]

Seems no one picks on the fact he says he would have fared better with Rodgers, Eli, Big Ben... While not mentioned, probably Brady and Drew Brees as well? LOL 

The problem here is just not a lack of class against his ex teammate that took his team to the SB while he was injured, but the current Bills QBs can't be all giggling and dancing with those comments!

Has this shifted the line in Vegas for the preseason game?
