He's not being used like Hernandez. But, I guess because he plays the same position for the same team, that's enough for you. smh.
 
Steelers with another statement game. Brown. Bell. James. And now Coates as well (2TDs). Too many receivers now for Roethlisberger to choose from. It's gonna be a fun season.

Beating the Jets (1 - 3) by 18 is not a statement win.

1. It's called a two tight end set.

2. Bennett watched everyone one of Hernandez catches during the offseason...I wonder why....

3. Everyone knows the Patriots love the two tight end set, barely have run it since Hernandez "left" the team.

You're assuming Bell is healthy through the whole season. That is a HUGE assumption.

So because he's a "tight end" he's the new Hernandez. Got it.

Hernandez was often split out wide, often put into motion, often set in the backfield, etc. His versatility and impact is not what we're seeing out of Bennett. But, "tight end"... so...

Bennett is a better blocker than Hernandez so they will disguise him more than have him split out wide but did you even watch today's game? There were several plays that Bennett was split out wide. Specifically they like using him on those wide out screen plays.

All of Bennett's touchdowns Gronk was in the play. There has not been a multiple touchdown performance like that from a tight end with Gronk on the field since Hernandez.

Get over it I win.

He's being used like Bennett. He isn't mimicking Hernandez. At all. Gronk makes plays easier for everybody downfield. That's ****ing obvious.
 
Vikings are legit. My buddy and I jumped on that bandwagon after week 1. Their defense is easily the best in the league. (Yes, Doncos, that's right).

The plays are under a two tight end set offense. That IS the offense. They haven't run those plays that much since the days of Hernandez. They tried it sparsely with Chandler until they realized he drops passes.

Trust me buddy, you're not going to beat me in a Patriots debate.

You keep demonstrating that because he's a "tight end" and playing in a "two tight end set" that is enough for you to call him the new Hernandez. That's not enough. He isn't mimicking Hernandez. You're being dumb.

LOL. u sooo stupid.
 
If Chandler woulda been able to catch passes he'd've been teh new Hernandez, gais. Cuz he'd've been a TE in NE w/ 2 TE sets, gais. But he couldn't so we had to wait for the new Hernandez. Ok.
 
I'm glad the Steelers are ditching the 'Bumblebee' uniform today though after 5 years... never liked it. Look ridiculous to me.. LOL
