at worst he’s a distraction that does boneheaded things at bad times. I’m normally all about high upside guys with some red flags but his issues have shown up onfield and that worries me.

Tre White Injury Updates (Torn Achilles now confirmed)
NoSaint replied to Process's topic in The Stadium Wall
meh. You can pretty well diagnose on field. I’d understand waiting to announce but he’d know before he’s even on the cart -
achilles is a tough one for a guy to return from explosion lags for upwards of 2 years to get right. As a guy that makes his living on an island it’s not ideal. Far less plug and play than most nfl injuries.
-
at 28 probably suits up again but not sure it’ll be here and on that contract . Major change in career trajectory
-
next stop in breaking the stalemate: what do you think the average salary for that player should be, and do you think gabe should be a top 5 average salary in Buffalo? and I’m not a huge fan of just taking games/plays out but in weighting his production from the past and looking forward part of me always wants to lop about 50 yards off that one catch and still credit him with a long TD but like 48 instead of 98 to normalize it a little.

Terrible sequence by the lions. wont matter but incomplete, run out of bounds and a sack while running out the clock is criminal
-
I think that’s not a terribly unfair comparison - good guy, well liked, hard worker, and has a spot in the league but not the guy for this roster or scheme. because he is a wr instead of running back the pay is also about 5-10x, which makes it even worse to sign on for a veteran contract. He’s a guy a team with a rookie qb can splurge on as part of a 3 WR platoon that costs too much for us
-
ultimately, at what moment does anyone here say “it’s gabe Davis time” he’s the deep threat that can’t outrun guys hes the big body that isn’t a reliable 3rd down move the chains target he’s not a bum that doesn’t belong in the league but he’s kind of a tweener that’s not particularly good at any identifiable role or skill set
-
“if they don’t like him they could cut him or make him inactive or not throw to him” as a wr2 -ie top 64 wr- that he is down at 66 in targets on a passing offense that is top 10 in plays run and passes thrown might indicate to you that they are limiting their play design to him. They aren’t scheming up gabe, they are letting people forget gabe.

agreed. Predictable times are a blessing and early Sunday is by far the least impactful on the work week. roll those on Monday or Thursday and it blows up two business days. At least Sunday is free pre game
-
and when people start saying that 3 games after saying he was incompetent and coaches were hesitant to give him the job- it’s probably sell high territory ala Trent, or fitz, or… he has had a good run. I think odds are some regression. Who knows but that’s common sense.
-
yea, I want to cheer for him. Seems like a good enough guy and the type you’d like to see succeed - even beyond the fact that we have the need… but he just isn’t naturally gifted at the job when compared to guys who are top 64 at it. Doesn’t have short or long speed. Doesn’t have exceptional hands. Even his long TD this week wasn’t particularly fluid or skilled as an example of success despite the challenges instead of success because of high skills. He’s not a bum or lazy or anything. He just seems to be a tier or two higher than his natural skill set would normally warrant.

Over-reaction Three Weeks In.... Offense seems disjointed
NoSaint replied to Billsfan1972's topic in The Stadium Wall
The pick to gabe was a punt that could turn into PI on 3rd and 20 Im great with that and would encourage Gabe to worry less about playing defense and more about trying to draw a foul because it’s the rare time that OPI or an interception dont matter at all. Go make a play towards the ball not the defender. -

bengals are streakier than they should be for their talent level.
