CEDRIC BENSON SAID WHAT?
Maybe they ought to administer a drug test for Cedric Benson. Apparently he is high. Benson recently had this to say about Bears rookie Matt Forte:
“He is having a great year, but when I see the highlights, I see holes,” Benson, now with the Bengals, told writer Thomas George. “I see them using him in the slot, something they didn’t do with me. If I was there right now with the holes I see, I probably would have 1,800 yards. I definitely would have 1,500. I congratulate him on all of his success. He is taking advantage.”
Benson has amassed 392 yards rushing on 130 carries with the Bengals, an average of 3.0 yards per carry. Benson is now in his 4th NFL season. His career long run is 43 yards. Forte beat that in his first ever NFL game against the Colts.
Benson was a terrible receiver coming out of the backfield. So the Bears were supposed to put him in the slot? Puh-leeze. Forte already has more receptions in his 14-game rookie season than Benson does in his entire career.
Give it up, Ced. Be happy you have a gig in the league.
Indianapolis Colts to win Super Bowl
It’s funny that NOW he sees the holes. That was his problem. When he was playing he couldn’t FIND those holes. There were always holes. Thomas Jones didn’t have trouble finding them. And even Adrian Peterson, in limited time found those hole.
Cedric would’ve still found a way to run into the line, and anytime aside from the Seattle game last year if he had a hole, he’d trip over his own feet. Never have I seen a RB trip as much as Cedric Benson. Forte is a tremendous all around back, and I don’t think the run blocking has even been very good this year. Shut your piehole Benson. Have fun on the Bengals.
Forte sucks.
Yeah Bob, he’s terrible. 1200 yards rushing behind that weak O-line, 12 TDs and 60 catches.
Benson just wasn’t appreciated in Chitown. I’m glad he’s at the Bengals. They love him there. You guys shut your pieholes.
Yall will never win the Super Bowl with Kyle Orton or Lovie Smith.
I hope the Bengals come to Chicago sometime and destroy the Bears.
If they do come to Chicago, let’s hope Ced isn’t driving!
