Joe Brady says Gabe Davis was the player of the game against the Jets

[Special K]

From the minute Kincaid was drafted, I'm sure the plan was that once Kincaid was up to speed on the offense, this O was going to become centered around Diggs and Kincaid, with everyone else being complimentary pieces.

 

As a fellow UCF alum, I'm as big a fan of Davis as anyone, but unfortunately, I do not see his second contract coming from the Bills. If that is the case, I will be rooting for his success wherever he goes.....except when he is playing the Bills

Of course, Joe is right.  A guy can play a good game, do what the team asks him to do, and not be a statistical standout.

 

Still, Joe might be trying to get ahead of Gabe's discontent and/or massage a hurt ego.

heads exploding....

he might throw a helmet or scream at Josh??

[MJS]

Yes, he blocked well in the run game. He deserves kudos for that.

 

But he is a RECEIVER. He didn't receive anything.

[JakeFrommStateFarm]

I say we give that Shorter fellow a try...

Cool story Joe!

[boyst]

Dude reminds me of Bobby Trees. 

[BBFL]

Good for Joe trying to prop a player up and give him confidence in just being on the field and a team player. 
 

Nice to see!

Convert Gabe to TE and we can start running 3 TE sets

[JohnNord]

He helped immensely in the blocking game as a WR.  He was mostly a non-factor on the passing game as a WR.  

[BillsFan130]

I’m not a Gabe fan at all, but he definitely did all the small things right.

He reminds me of a good checking 4th line centre in hockey.

 

Limited skill, but does all the little things right

I don’t think anyone doubted his ability.  The question was whether he could be an effective WR2 on a full time basis.  We’ve seen it in flashes but never consistently.  
 

In the end, I think he answered the question for him.  He can be a good receiver that can help an offense but is probably not consistent enough to be a big-time WR2

Oh I 100 percent agree . They need to upgrade at WR2 next year for sure

Having a WR2 whos only good quality blocking isnt gonna cut it. 

Expand  

Agreed

I get the blocking aspect, but we need an effective #2 in the passing game.  Reed had Lofton, and Diggs has no one.

The 13 sec game screwed up perception on #13. He is and should remain a nice #3 wr, where he will do lots of little things right and occasionally make the game breaking play.

 

But...when the game is on the line you look for your top 1 or 2 options. Not a guy with a high drop rate. For us this will be Kincaid and Diggs with Shakir nipping at their heals for wr options.

 

Cook is also explosive. We have all we need to be a very good offense the rest of the year. Just need everyone to accept the best seat for them on the bus.

That perception would have been a whole lot different had we beaten KC in that game and gone on to the Super Bowl, likely to have won that.  

 

Funny, the support for McD who prevented that, but the hammering that Davis takes, who's the only reason we were in that game.

True. But reality is you can fire/demote a mid -round drafted wr alot easier than your hc...and Davis does drop alot of balls.
