DMN Blog: Play of the Day: Martellus Bennett does damage downfield

[zrinkill]

I keep telling him I want 50 grabs and 10 TDs.

That would be awesome ...... I want him to be our Alvin Harper

And Harper in Dallas never had more than 40 receptions in a year ..... but he averaged 20 yards/rec with us.

I love Witt. But, Witt doesn't have that wiggle to get extra yardage after the catch. Bennett has a little scoot and wiggle when he turns up field.

I keep Twitting him:

"Focus. Stay humble. Stay hungry. Don't tell us. Show us."

I think Witt is a better tight end than Marty ..... prolly always will be.

But I do not consider Marty a tight end ..... I consider him a receiver who plays the position of tight end.

And as a receiver ..... I think the sky is the limit on what he can do.

But I will readily admit that he is one of my "pet cats"

Agreed. Witten is the complete package. Just wish he had a little more finesse after the catch.

From all reports though - Bennett has been blocking well too.

This is a good problem to have. I'm not complaining at all.

Remember that Bennett is still a big kid and is going to make mistakes. I hope he continues to focus more on football then goofing around.

He is a TE- you are not going to see shake and bake like a small WR can do. BUT running over safeties and CBs is definitly fun to watch.

Definitely not going to juke like a WR, but way more scoot than Witt.

Like I said - damn nice problem to have.
