Yeah leaning on Gore makes me nervous too. Still think we can beat Cincy without Singletary, but I do totally agree he will be missed if he doesn’t play.

Lmao, except everything I criticized him for was spot on and he’s proved you wrong on the field. Sorry, try again. Film doesn’t lie.

“I’m not saying I’m number 1, oh I’m sorry I lied. I’m number 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5!”

Ante up!!!! or the Remix with Busta Rhymes

I didn't get that impression...he jumped up was strutting, jumping up with his teammates, etc.

Good post, this is all fair and reasonable IMO. The only thing I dont agree on is #3...Foster has 100% more production, but he also has 100% more opportunity. So not really fair to compare "production" when Duke is exactly where Foster basically was early last year...on the PS, hungry for a cache to prove himself in a live NFL game. To be clear, I am still bullish on Foster...his lack of involvement has been puzzling, but I feel like they will try and get him more involved.

I guess you missed his preseason then, fair enough, but he was making these catches in games and practice, including two amazing TD catches. And in preseason it came down to one spot...him and McKenzie were fighting for it, but we needed ST play from that spot too and McKenzie had a big advantage there. Brown and Cole will never play a snap on ST. Zay and Foster had never played ST and were learning. Roberts was a ST ace, but was locked in as a returner and also hurt. The final WR spot HAD to be able to contribute on ST, and I am willing to bet money that was a big decider between Duke and McKenzie. Not to mention, McKenzie also had a good preseason in his limited touches too, so not like he was also deserving. But now...we aren't getting much WR use out of either Zay or Foster...and neither of them do much on ST either. So, I think Duke may have a shot at the active 53 here sooner than people think at the expense of maybe one of those 2 players.

LOL. The stupidity of this comment is hilarious to me, then I read who wrote it and it made it even funnier...I get it, I mean you cant defend Zay anymore, so you gotta try and troll the guy who was brave enough to point his flaws out in February.

Honestly, I think Foster has more upside than Zay...but right now, I would say neither roster spot is safe and Duke is making a strong case to take either one of their spots.

I still think Foster has great upside, just saying for whatever reason he's fallen down the depth chart and mostly out of the game plan this year. So its only fair to include him in any conversation that would included activating Duke. Neither him or Zay are making much of an impact, so wouldn't be fair to single only Zay out when discussing bringing in Duke.

Because he did last week too and all preseason...meanwhile Zay and Foster have combined for 32 yards and a dropped TD through 2 games. And no one on our roster makes the kind of high pointing and tough catches that Duke has consistently shown to make.

Hence I named Zay and Foster...so why are you saying that to me? lol

What are you talking about? Duke did this today, its a topic today...and LOTS of people want to see Duke get a shot here. And sorry, when you drop a TD pass in a one score game, then you are going to get criticism as a player. Especially when you have 32 total yards on the season and also another dropped TD in preseason.

The QB threw the ball to where the WR should have been. Zay wasn’t where he was supposed to be and admitted so himself and took 100% responsibility for this play. It was a great pass and a bad route by Zay.

Ditto ?

Am I the only one who thinks Duke makes the TD catch that Zay dropped against the Giants?

Being realistic: DUKE WILLIAMS

Im aware, but how far has Foster fallen that his number is only called a few times in low percentage Bomb attempts?

Yeah him or Foster. Zay has 34 yards and a dropped TD in two games where Foster doesn’t even have a single catch I don’t think. This guy can do more for us than they have so far.

Yea it was...even though people keep falsely claiming he can’t separate when he clearly can and just did against our best CB.

He’s at it again, get this guy on the active roster already! I see plenty of separation as he just beat Tre on this play and he may have the best hands over anyone on the roster right now.

They played a mediocre Steeler team that came out flat at home in NE than a Dolphin team that not only will be winless, but could maybe go winless in the XFL. They are beatable, they lost games last year and should have never made the SB if not for an offside penalty...meaning they are beatable. In other words, I do not believe they will go I defeated this year. I still think they are one of the best teams in the AFC and NFL, but that doesn’t mean they are going undefeated. Bills are built to contend with them, doesn’t mean we will but we are a well balanced team. I think it’s possible we could beat them week 4. I’m not betting on it, but they aren’t untouchable.

We CAN win the division. That doesn’t mean it’s “probable”, but with our schedule I think we will get to 11 wins and flirt with 12. NE is Beatable and if we can split with them and get to 11 or 12 wins we will be in the race. But it’s IMPERATIVE we take care of business against all of the opponents we SHOULD beat, and Cincy is next up in that list. We can’t lose any of the games we are favored in. And it’s mandatory to sweep Mia and Jets, plus at least splitting with Pats. So, while it’s certainly possible and will be in the race deep into the season, I still think it’s definitely more probable we will be a wildcard as NE’s floor is 11-12 wins.

All this means is they aren’t prepared to either carry 3 QBs on active roster or promote him to #2. This is a PS move if you ask me, and makes sense for the Colts to make this move right now. His career isn’t done, he’s coming off suspension and behind the other QBs in terms of being ready to play. Not saying he is gonna be a future starter, but this is the move I would expect the colts to make right now. Question is will he clear waivers with all the QB injuries right now.
