Gabe Davis deserves his own thread

[BuffaloRebound]

Josh needs to throw his way more near goal line and in big spots.  Dude came up huge.  He actually fights for the ball and for yardage unlike our #1 WR

[Roundybout]

He's a home run pick by Beane. 

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

That conversion showed the heart of this team today. What a play. 

[Sammy Watkins' Rib]

LOL. I just bumped an older one. 

 

Davis needs to be on the field more than Sanders. Period. I think he was today but not sure if Sanders was injured? Tuned out large parts of the second half so may have missed an injury. But all season long Davis has been out producing Sanders on both a per snap and per target basis. I think today he was finally on the field for more snaps as the box score shows 8 targets for Davis to just 1 for Sanders. 

 

Davis is also young and part of this teams future potentially. He needs to be on the field a lot.

[Freddie's Dead]

Bold prediction:  Gabe Davis will be WR2 next year, and WR1 the year after that.

[Real McClappy]

He needs to be our #2 WR here out. This kid could honestly become a #1 as I don't think he has reached his peak yet. 

[Brandon]

Gabe Davis makes plays every time he gets the opportunity.  He needs to be on the field more often, if not full time. 

[EmotionallyUnstable]

He needs to be on the field.

[zevo]

sanders stunted his development...Time for him to take a back seat

 

[Over 29 years of fanhood]

Yep- he’s better for this offense than sanders. I didn’t predict that, enthusiastically supported sanders acquisition and love his approach to the game, but gabe on the field makes the team better

Felt like he really showed up when we changed our play style in the second half, you know when the offense was actually working.

[Sammy Watkins' Rib]

Earlier in the year there was a thought that Davis had taken a step back this year. He wasn't as good as last year. I don't think the numbers ever supported that. He just wasn't seeing the field because we were forcing Sanders into a starting role.

[Aussie Joe]

Great play on that 4th down to fight for the yards..

 

We really need to see him more on the field .. one of many things that mystify me about this team...

He needs to be the WR2. Sanders can head to retirement 

[Process]

I don't think we've seen enough to say he's the number two wide receiver long term. Right now I think that will be a major need next offseason.

 

But he's earned the job for the rest of this year, without question.

I love Sanders... Great vet, class act and locker room leader. But if his injury keeps him out, it will allow Davis a chance to play, and Davis deserves it. This kid can play

That's good because all his d-line picks are hitting into double plays.

[Maine-iac]

Davis is probably the best run blocking WR we have also.

[Kwai San]

My issue w Manny is he gets a catch and acts like he won the SB each and every time.  Personally that is unacceptable to me.  Put the damn ball down and go back to the huddle!  Celebrate AFTER the win please.

 

Go Gabe Davis!!!!

[streetkings01]

I said it in the off-season…..Davis needs to be the #2 starting WR……kid makes plays.

He was also banged up early in the season.
