Buffalo_Stampede Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I have no belief Gabe Davis would’ve caught anything Sherfield couldn’t. Davis has dropped those passes also. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he'd be missed in the run game a bit and that's it. I was dead wrong, there's no doubt in my mind he catches at least 1, if not both bombs to Sherfield, which would have been game changers... As well as the bomb to Diggs Gabe had a season where he dropped passes or caused interceptions and also had 5 games with 0 catches. Was missed but nit the reason why we lost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T master Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 (edited) 2 hours ago, Peter said: I agree. We also missed Stefon Diggs. Yah i don;t know what the hell happened to him if he was pissed about something & just decided to drop most balls that came to him because he wasn't a factor at all in this run ! If he continues to play like this they need to trade him or something because they have enough of those guys that can drop a perfectly thrown pass that hits them right in the hands don't need any more . And i think Gabe would have helped because if i were the Bills Sheffield would be on the next plane out of town he has proven nothing since he landed in B/lo .

billieve420 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 2 hours ago, UKBillFan said: As I said elsewhere, it’s a possibility but considering the route/communication issues revolving around him all season it’s just as likely he would have been standing in a completely different spot. I believe with all the options/checks they have going on those issues are going to happen. They need to simplify things in the offseason if they make Brady the permanent OC. Too much thinking and it was like pulling teeth all season to have a consistent passing game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miketysonslisp Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 All we needed was one of those big bombs to land and I think Davis would've made one of them. I know the season he had but he's different in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Einstein Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Goodness gracious no he wasn’t. If Dawkins wasn’t pushed back into Allen as he threw to a wide open Shakir, we have 30+ points last night against a top 5 Chiefs defense. We scored 20 points against that same defense with Gabe a couple months ago. We need new receivers everywhere, but once again Gabe doesn’t play and Allen doesn’t throw an INT. Not a coincidence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best WR on the field last night on either team was Shakir and he doesn’t get those opportunities if Davis plays. Shakir was wide open on the 2nd and 9 in the endzone for the go ahead TD but Josh Allen had his foot stepped on by Dawkins and kept him from having his legs in the throw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. It’s like some posters have amnesia that Gabe has had a 52% catch rate over the past two seasons. And it’s not like we needed Gabe to stretch the defense. Sherfield and Diggs were getting open deep just fine - they just dropped all 3 deep attempts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good, reliable WR who can get open and compete for catches WAS MISSED. Gabe usually doesn't do that anyway. He's played his last game as a Bill anyway, so time to move on.

gordong Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 this is the problem with Davis... he's hurt a lot.. He's not coming back we can't afford him.. and the people saying trade diggs... yeah that's not happening either...the cap hit would be HUGE.

Drew21PA Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 3 hours ago, zow2 said: *IF* Gabe can get open he appears to be the only Bills WR that can track the ball on deep throws. The other guys including Diggs suck at it. See this isn’t true after last night our guys were getting separation at least where I was sitting diggs drops are troubling 1 second and that’s a TD to sure hand shakir Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popcornpam Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 3 hours ago, NBDawg15 said: Kincaid wasn't targeted from the 10 minute mark of the first quarter until there were 8 mins left in the game. Zero redzone targets. No targets on the last series of downs. Still caught all five looks he got all night and led the Bills in receiving yards. Why don't we use a guy who produces so frequently more? They kept pulling him out of the game in the fourth quarter. Why? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyo321 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 3 hours ago, BeastMaster said: McDermotts defenses have folded every playoffs...regardless of who was hurt or not If Poyer doesn't make a play, that fake punt call goes down as one of the worst calls ever in the playoffs that lost us the game. Josh had to play a perfect game just to have a chance cause McDermotts D couldn't even put up a fight But, sure...McDermott is obviously the guy who will get us over the hump. Just give him the perfect team McD and Beane should be held for their terrible decision making. They brag and rave about the D-Line they assembled, I beg to differ. The Von Miller signing is detrimental on more than just one level. He has had a total negative ROI for this team, both money wise and performance wise. Its been 2 years now going into a 3rd year now for the upcoming 2024 season. This team is now in regression, our current CAP situation leaves no way out because of Von Miller and some other signings that should have never happened. That money tied into Von, Knox and also White is going to prevent this team, from getting better this upcoming year. We have needed a stud LB for years now. Edmunds wasn't it, Milano although really good has had a past issue with injuries and they were not his fault and I am not blaming him just stating the facts. When he goes down there is no one else to back him up. Even Terrel Bernard is not the stud LB that is needed to get by the competition at this level. We got pushed off the ball all over the place on D last night, In all of the divisional losses the last 4 years we have allow a averaged 34 points given to our opponents, and they all have been losses. That is not championship D... This is why once again why this team will not win with this D, and McD and Beane in charge. When you watched KC last night and their running game move Taron Johnson and Williams and Dodson off the ball with their O Guards & Tackles blocking during their running plays in the game yesterday, it is the same thing we did to Dallas last month. This team for the past 4 seasons has failed because of the D, and McD is a Defensive coach. There is no excuse. They have put tons of money on the D side of the ball and it has been a epic failure. Sorry both McD and Beane need to go. Until these two guys realize that Josh Allen can not play defense, we are never going to win a SB with this team.

babulator Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Gabe is useless and Diggs is done. Can't beat press, can't get any separation, now he's losing contested balls, and he never gets any YAC. Our entire WR room needs to be turned over. Shakir looks like a serviceable slot WR or #3 guy, outside of that, our cupboards are empty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurfToeJam Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Even though I'm not a big fan of Gabe, I do think he was missed. K.c. didn't have to cover anyone deep other than diggs. (And diggs isn't exactly a speedster anymore.) They knew Shakir wasn't gonna be running any deep routes. Guessing bills go dt in 1st, wr in 2nd, safety in 3rd.

947 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 The only time I missed Gabe was when I saw Shakir heading to the locker room with what looked like a dislocated shoulder. I was thinking. "Oh man, we're gonna have to throw more to Sherfield now, I really wish we had Gabe". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
