Jamie_B Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 he looked good today, i'd sign him. i cant imagine how well he could play behind a better line. (though the line played well today as well) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VonBlade Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 x6 co-sign multiple etc. He's done nothing but run the ball hard, well, behind a terrible line. He reminds me of TJ. Just gets it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bgal Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Isn't today the last day to extend players? I really really hope they sign him up for at least 4 years. He has a lot of heart! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
|BengalsFREAK| Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Until they fix that line, it won't matter who is running the ball. (though I will say the line did a much better job today) Good game by Benson, but it won't be consistant week to week until they fix whatever the problem is up front.

bubba Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 I've thought that since his first carry here. Benson is a keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BengalBacker Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 I'm with all of you. He was the 4th overall pick a few years ago, he clearly has some talent. Sign him up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColorChanginClique Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 Wait, why can't you sign a player to a new contract after this week or w/e the deadline is? Don't you have a right to sign w/e you want whenever you want? Makes no sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

globetrotter Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 Benson should have been given a two year deal when he signed so that if he went off like he seems to be doing we would have him under contract. We should give him a year right now with added possible negotiations in the summer. The idea of letting TJ go to me is laughable. I dont care how old he is or how much you think it is because of Chad. The man was second in receptions last week for the entire NFL. He is a great leader and has a great timing and relationship with Carson. You reward people like him. People like him are the glue that holds teams together. He will be the leader of the team in terms of working hard and professionalism. Getting rid of players like TJ makes no sense. Justin SMith was overpaid for his production. We saw the best we were going to get from Mad. TJ is a phenomenal football player. We need to keep those guys. Eric Steinbech taught us that lesson.

You seem to not follow the team very well. The FO re-signs their own players (sometimes when they shouldn't). Its other players they won't shell out for and last I checked, Benson wasn't a free agent... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling that he's in a "trying to prove something" mode, and perhaps once he strikes another big contract, he'll revert back to being the lousy, problematic back he was in Chicago. Hopefully I'm wrong but in this instance, the Bengals would be right to take a conservative approach with Cedric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
