Christian Bentancur / Davis "The General" Allen

Based on blocking and receiving performance and potential, I can't understand why Bentancur is not on the field for 80% of Offensive plays.

Broken record about TE use, but the Tigers rarely used Davis Allen's size and talents, See attached LA Rams' video for Davis "The General" Allen.

The TE is the most underutilized weapon many, if not most, teams waste. I cannot figure out why so many coaches, especially ours, miss that. Maybe things will change, but I’m not holding my breath.

I agree that we underuse the TE. Think that is mostly due to the need for more QB protection.

DA was 3rd in receptions for CU his last 2 seasons, also finishing 1st...

Oct 6, 2025, 10:13 AM

in 2021 & 2022 in TD receptions.

DJU was not making anyone look special, yet DA garnered an ALL-ACC slot and was drafted.

In his 3rd NFL season, 35 game appearances, DA now has 22 total receptions. That's not 1 reception per game.

I believe Brandon Streeter might be available.
