Over the shoulder grab diving forward?

 

Nope. Gabe has had trouble making catches that would be considered pretty routine this year.

 

 

You mean like that TD Josh dropped in his bread basket today or that time Josh hit him down the sideline in the numbers against the Jets with a bum elbow?

 Gabe definitely needs to start catching the ball more consistently.

 

 

On a positive note...It was nice seeing Allen letting a few deep balls rip. We've seen little to none of that since the elbow injury. One good thing that came from what happened Monday night is he's only had 1 drive in a 2 week span. Gotta think it helped his elbow injury.

WR 2 is high on Bills off-season needs

 

It's #1 need. It's the difference between us & Cincy. Hell even the Phins have a better weapons set up. We won't win it all w/o true #2 & 3 weapons which we don't have right now. (Davis 48 catches on 93 targets= 51.6%)

 

These next 2 weeks we're about to get a clinic in the importance of a true WR2. Cincy is gonna be a problem.

45 receptions in 15 games and about 55% catch ratio is not even yeoman effort for the supposed #2 receiver on a team that is supposed to be a super bowl contender with a QB who is routinely in consideration for MVP status.

 

Enough of this garbage and excuses that week and and week out is made for someone who is “spectacular”,  briefly, once every 150-180 minutes on the clock.

 

”oh, you can’t enjoy a win.”

 

yes I can and it was great, but I want a super bowl.

Does anyone know how fast Brown is, right now?

 

I would imagine he has lost a few steps; he did have a spectacular TD catch today though.

 

The team knows better than us how fast/slow he is; that could be a factor.

 

Replacing Davis is an off-season project IMO.

 

 

The writing was on the wall when the Bills acquired Smoke and Cole.  Just a little message to Gabe to figure it out. After Diggs, no one is safe. It would not surprise me whatsoever if the Bills draft a wr in the 1st or 2nd.

The thing about recent Gabe? The context. This is a 13 win team and our 2WR has not shown as WR2, since Pittsburg 98 yd 12 wks ago. Brown demonstrated too much today.
 

Unfortunately, it’s our secondary injuries that will ultimately burn us vs hill/ Joe / pat

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.

Pretty sure they both can be available…you know, again. Gabe did and had made many clutch catches in his time. Not sure if you seen but Smoke has been unemployed for a minute also

Davis has over 800 yards, just some silly threads
