Logic Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 6 minutes ago, BADOLBILZ said: Gabriel Davis also 183rd out of 192 receivers in catch %. Yeah. Pretty awful. He needs to stop dropping catchable passes and to be more reliable when called upon. To be fair, though...in terms of catch percentage, DK Metcalf is ranked 91st. Brandon Aiyuk 87th. The great Justin Jefferson is ranked 75th. A receiver can be highly productive in the NFL and still have a below average catch %. But yeah, he needs to clean it up.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 2 hours ago, Logic said: Gabriel Davis is ranked 26th in receiving yards. He has the same amount of receiving touchdowns as Justin Jefferson, Ja'Marr Chase, Ceedee Lamb, Amon Ra St Brown, and Mark Andrews, and more than Tyreek Hill, Tee Higgins, and DK Metcalf. Only 8 receivers in the league have caught more touchdowns than he has. I'm not sure in what universe those aren't good WR2 numbers. Even if your contention that he was expected to emerge as a WR1, well...there are 32 teams in the league, and he is ranked 26th in receiving yardage and tied with a bunch of other guys for the 5th most touchdown receptions. Among players with at least 25 catches on the season, he is ranked 5th in 1st down %. The Bills offense as a whole ranks 2nd in yards and 3rd in points, with Davis being the second leading receiver on the team. I'm not sure if the problem people have is unrealistic expectations or failure to accurately assess Gabe Davis's production relative to that of his peers. Saying he "hasn't stepped up this season" is not really backed up by the numbers. This shouldn’t be how you analyze a WR. A lot of WRs would put up very good numbers as a WR2 in Buffalo.

LeGOATski Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 3 hours ago, H2o said: Pass. If he's not going to be able to at least get some reps with the ones before the Playoffs, then I'm not shaking up the depth chart just for him (still not knowing what you'll really get) during the Playoffs. People need to get over this idea that Odell will be a playoff piece for whatever team signs him. He's been straight forward from the beginning that he's looking for a multi-year deal. With that said, it'd probably be a better deal to sign him now than to wait for the 2023 FA period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are the times you reenforce their decision not to tell you and asked "are you sure?" 2-3 more times. That way when the agreement starts later you can say, "well you said fine and I asked you again and again so apparently you weren't being honest with me" Worked like a charm. I'm also divorced now so use that at your own risk🤣 Edited December 6, 2022 by The Wiz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't followed that closely, but earlier this season the timeline I heard was be ready to start practicing mid-November. So this seems like "sliding timeline" to me. 10 minutes ago, HappyDays said: Stevenson was not on the 53 man roster, he was on IR. Releasing him didn't open a spot. I don't think it's possible to release a player from IR without an injury settlement. The procedure is they must be medically cleared and activated to the 53 man roster. After they are activated, they can be released. Edited December 6, 2022 by Beck Water Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is, Jerry Jones just assumes they will lose in the wildcard game anyway and OBJ won’t be available until a “deep” playoff run. So, Bills fans can rejoice that we might actually be serious about him after all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills may have better star power in JA and Diggs than Dak and Lamb, but you’re discounting the rest of their team a good amount. Micah Parsons matches up favorably with Von Miller at this point in their careers. The Dallas offensive line is a good bit better than ours. Their run game is much better, Ezekiel Elliot and Pollard >>>>>>> Singleterry and Cook. They are also 9-3 despite playing a backup QB for 5 games. If Case Keenum started 5 games, would the Bills be 9-3 right now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
