He needs to get it together for our run to the super bowl.

He earned his spot with those 3 HUGE catches against the Rams when we needed them. Factor in his exceptional character and team-first mentality and we’re getting what we brought him in for.

Yeah let's just forget all the other good catches he has made, and let's just focus on that one drop.

Everybody drops a few passes. Do you think he has a lot of drops this season?

36 targets 28 catches. That's a 77.8% catch rate.
Third most targets on the team and the third beast completion rate of anyone with 20 or more targets.

Did he drop another TD pass recently? The only other miss I recall was a ball Drew may have throw to deep in the end zone or Watson was slowed down coming off the line by the defender (that is what it looked like to me). But I have missed some parts of some games.

He dropped a big one in the first half against the Giants

I love Ben but I agree he could be a little more consistent

He's the 4th highest ranked TE in the league in catch percentage, 7th overall receiver, 22nd in the league. (stats from the following site).

https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/player-stat/receiving-catch-rate

No doubt he should have had those TDs but, at age 37, he's still performing at a better level than any of our other tight ends and brings a settled type of veteran leadership to the locker room that we can use. He has the third highest # of targets on the team behind Thomas and Kamara.

I thought he dropped them on purpose. One for each kid.

I want to fight you. You said 3-4 years ago he wasn’t even a lock to make the roster due to age and here he is an Achilles tear later still shoving his foot up your arse

Didn’t he drop the jump pass from Hill? That was an awkward throw and he was turned around a bit.

Oh and frick anyone dumping on Watson. He is not suspect.

Well I think he lost a catch that the defender stripped from him.

You watch your mouth. Ben is married and has all of his kids (just one more than Brees) with his wife. He’s not a Peterson or Cromartie.

I don’t think that’s what he meant. I assumed he was referring to the twins he and his wife are expecting.
