More of gabe! 

[RoyBatty is alive]

Not going to move the needle imo.  We get to see more of the future in Gabe Davis son I am not upset about it.

 

One thing about Sanders, not sure how much "blame" is on Josh Allen but he sure does make a lot of catches on or going to the ground.  And we wonder why this team has so little YAC.

[transplantbillsfan]

This is good because it forces us to play Davis more.  Sanders has been good this year, but he's played at the expense of developing Gabe Davis, who I think will be at least a really good #2 WR for us long term.

[Process]

Means more Gabe which is probably a good thing. 

 

But we are very thin at WR now. Diggs Gabe or Cole goes down we are toast. 

 

If they stay healthy than we probably won't miss Sanders.

[Clyde Smith]

Might as well bring up Hodgins and see what he can do. I see him on the sidelines every game with his long head a**.

You're exactly right.  I just wonder when the Duke Williams contingent begins to resurface in this forum...lol

[Ethan in Cleveland]

Did you see how tired Diggs was at the end of that game. This is not a good thing. Sanders is a good player. Yes I want Davis to get more action but missing Sanders is not good for the WR group.

[BaaadThingsMan]

Davis Time!! Lets GO!!!! Get well soon Sanders!!!

[Matt_In_NH]

I like Sanders but this is one area the Bills have sufficient depth.

[freddyjj]

Wonder if Bills staff take these next few games and scheme up some wrinkles using Lil Dirty and Stevenson for 6-12 plays game.  Using Stevenson to help run 4 verticals or  9 routes to clear the S for Diggs or Davis in the intermediate zone.  Stevenson has good hands and great deep speed.

 

Also use lil Dirty on WR screens, jet sweeps etc as variants of a running game.  

 

If Sanders goes to IR do we finally see Hodgson as a call up used a big slot to help vs pressure packages?

This team was fine without brown when he was out last year. I honestly think they've tried to force the ball to sanders too much this year. Diggs, Bease and Davis should really get the job done, plus with Knox and singletary (for screens) I think we'll be fine, if not better. Don't get me wrong, I really like sanders, but sometimes less is more

The offense runs better when Sanders isn't on the field anyways. It forces Daboll to be more creative.

[Kelly's Heroes]

Does anyone really care is Sanders plays? He was a horrible addition.

Sorry Manny but this is a good thing. Much more of Davis thank you.

[Roundybout]

Not the worst thing. Feel bad for Sanders but he's getting too old and Davis is the better receiver now. 

[CSBill]

Good! Sorry he’s hurt, but really, as I’ve been saying all season: the only thing he has done is take time away from Gabe Davis. Davis is a better player than Sanders in every way. 

[NewEra]

What a disappointment he’s been the last 2 months.  Sigh.  More Gabe.  

[YoloinOhio]

I really like sanders but can’t deny that the offense seemed to flow better without him.
