Gunsgoodtime Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 1 hour ago, dollars 2 donuts said: Davis might honestly be the worst #2 of any team in the playoffs. …which is not very encouraging. So tired of it being on Allen and Diggs all the time through the air and then once every 4-5 weeks Davis does something impersonating a #2. Thankfully there has been more Knox in the second half of the season. EDIT: and respectfully, fyi, Davis is the 87th leading receiver in the league with Allen at QB. If you base is value off stats, 32 teams 3 recievers from each team is 96, which would put him as a bad #3 Wr with Allen dropping darts on him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neother pass gave the WR a chance to make the catch. Davis has his issues but just like last week when Allen missed Beasley, not every ball that the WR gets his hands on can be caught. Agree a number of the passes he's dropped were not good throws. The first possession, they never showed a replay, but pass was low and behind him from what I recalled. Could he have got lucky and caught it sure. But he's being blamed for anything that comes close. Having said, he did drop at least two that he should have had today including the pass near the end in the end zone and recall one other he should have had. Over all do agree they need improvement next season at WR, but not sure making changes at this point is the best thing. Allen is also struggling with accuracy much more of late and had lead to many inaccurate passes. Maybe that's still due to the injury?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Ferguson Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 3 receptions on 10 targets. That deserves benching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunsgoodtime Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 37 minutes ago, HalftimeAdjustment said: Davis's drops are a problem, but likely we can't address it with guys who were out of the league to start the year. He gets into position to make the catch but drops too many. The other guys may not even get into position which could lead to sacks or INTs. Have to trust the coaches. The other WR who does not have reliable hands is McKenzie. Its at the point its embarrassing to even see Mckenzie on the field at WR. Outside of Diggs we have nothing. Time to use that high draft capital on WR and OL. I say 1st 4 picks on Wr and Ol then draft a safety or two 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HappyDays Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 1 hour ago, ScottLaw said: They clearly put too much weight into Davis and his performance in the divisional game last season… He is the same guy he always was which is still a good reserve WR, but he isn’t a 1B WR. He isn't the same guy he was the past 2 years. He is much worse. It's a really frustrating development. They were counting on him to step up and instead he inexplicably regressed. His rookie season he was making ridiculous toe drag catches in a critical drive of a playoff game. Today he didn't even try dragging his 2nd foot on a routine play along the sideline. I don't get it.

BigDingus Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Can we just trust the coaching staff at this point? Bench Davis right before playoffs? This same crowd was crying to start Elam, and he immediately became the go-to target for the opposition to exploit. Any time Josh plays poorly or the defense gets rolled over, we're also crying to fire McDermott/Frazier/Dorsey. We had posts on this board whining about everything from Edmunds to Hines, then both end up being crucial to today's win. Yes, there are plenty of flaws to this team, but there's enough blame to go around on EVERYONE. Let's just hope McDermott & Co. have them all ready when it matters most. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanahan's Horseshoe Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 The best thing he does is block. As of right now, he looks like he’s lost all confidence doing anything else. He’s had his chance. Play Brown and Shakir 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillsGospel Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 2 hours ago, peterpan said: We can’t afford 2-3-4 drops a game out of Davis in the playoffs. Brown has been here for a few weeks now, and should be up to speed. His catch today proves he still has it. give the reliable vet the start over the young guy with feet for hands. I think that's a really bad idea, Davis really seems to shine in the playoffs. You don't give up on players that's how they get better.

HunTim Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 I agree that Gabe has disappointed at times this season. Here's hoping he can regain his form to help out down the stretch because there isn't a true 1b WR on the roster IMO I would be pleasantly surprised if Brown still has the gas to fill the 1b role full time, happy to be wrong. It's more likely things stay the same and the ball keeps getting spread around, with a fair number of drops. Go Bills! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsbackto81 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 1 hour ago, TheyCallMeAndy said: He’s been a 50-50 WR his whole career Never said he was a legitimate #1 He's having an off year but he still has 836 yards in 15 games. I would think that's typical production for a #2 WR. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
