Yep. Gotta know some drops will happen and that one was killer BUT I don't think you bench the guy. Encourage him and say you're taking the next one to the house. Did you see the whole team come over to him to support him?
That's what happens when you put a rookie out there and rely on him, see training camp. He wanted so desperately to make a play though, you could see it, rookie mistakes happen. He was heart broken and thankfully the defense bailed him out. Hopefully he learns from it.
I think the worst thing you can do is bench a rookie after a bad game. Tell him it's a bad game and move on. If it happens again then you can think about it.
Oh please. He can do better. We have seen it. He had a bad day and thats if.
Lets stop this constant 'bench him and bench him" when a player had a bad player or bad day.
If he runs one back next week you look utterly stupid.
