Gabe Davis released

[CSBill]

What was Gabe in for?

 

Regardless, I'm glad he is free now and has a chance to reset his life.

He is definitely NOT an idiot... he is one of the smartest people in this nation and are very lucky to have him. Come on now

Some folk have a visceral dislike of science and or those that through much study and practical experience have excelled in those endeavors. They give indications that they are or could very well be intimidated by such people. 
 

His stance on “God” riles some folk up, but that’s to be expected.

Probably a good fit for him to compete with jennings for outside reps opposite Aiyuk.

Well, he refuses to believe in the possibility of there being NHI in the universe that has visited our giant ball of rock. This makes many believe he’s short-sighted or obstinate. 

 

See to me belief requires "faith" and i feel like scientists tend to require facts, data, and evidence.

This movie unfortunately is turning into a documentary.

Can't catch a fish until you throw out a line. Power in numbers.

 

At worst he'd be WR4. There isn't much wrong w that.

I think people are attacking his intelligence because of his metaphysical beliefs on certain hot button cultural issues and the rape/SA allegations that have been swirling around him for years.

Why was that necessary? Just focus on that one game in KC and it all makes sense.

Hey !

I can be opinionated too

If he comes to this team we have a 3WR and most importantly an outside option that only Coleman occupies.

 

I don't want to put my chips on him to be the guy on the outside, sorry. Davis isn't #1 but I trust him as much as Coleman. 

Have to play the other side here. We don't know Colemans ceiling considering the hand injury etc.

We might know what Gabe brings to the game.

As far as bringing him on / Lets see how how he recovers. Might be a reasonable addition mid season depending on injuries.

👍

We’ll have to agree to disagree on this one. We have more theories than absolute laws in physics. Science doesn’t require faith to consider the possibility of life beyond Earth. It relies on probability, observation, and testable hypotheses. Given the immensity of the cosmos, assuming Earth is the only cradle of life takes more blind faith than keeping an open, evidence-based mind. This is why I cannot take him seriously, when he casts doubt the possibility. He’s the narrow-minded guy in the room, in my humble opinion.

And some fall for “appeal to authority” so much that it borders on worship.  A good example is when Maggie Gyllenhaal gets cast as an attractive woman.  Well if Hollywood says so……

I agree with you...Diggs in 2023 is the most talented individual player between the two WR rooms, even if thats not peak Diggs.  No dispute from me...but its what "group" is better, and 2023 Diggs isn't so good that it elevates that lesser whole room to be better than the 5 collective guys we have today IMO.  

 

Now add in how his impact fell off in Brady's system, the overall drama and dark cloud he brought to the team, and the impact having him or not having him has on Josh's game and it really diminishes his "value' in how I would look at it.

 

So for me IMHO, the 2025 group as a whole is a better unit, will get better results, and will give us the best chance to win a SB over the 2023 group if it was all here today exactly as it was in 2023.  

 

 

 

The 2023 WR group was bad.

 

And some of us were aware that was going to be the case heading into the season.    Others were irrationally overconfident in guys like Sherfield and Harty and are like that every year in thinking guys will just be better because of Josh Allen.  

 

Allen and Diggs were producing at a high level early in 2023 but that was basically IT for positive WR play until mid-season.  

 

As teams got tape on the 2023 version of the Bills it became evident that the Bills passing offense was "chuck it to Diggs or Allen should run".

 

So they began to adapt the passing offense to decentuate their feeble 2023 WR corps.

 

Dorsey began it against Tampa and then after McDermott blew the Denver game by not keeping his defense on the field for the FG they handed the keys to Brady who began running the ball more and using designed runs for Allen that they had been strategically AVOIDING for the prior two years(over 9 carries per game under Brady in 2023).

 

The Bills WR corps has gradually declined each season since 2020.  

 

They reached the point early in 2024 where they were so bad that there weren't many teams that had worse.  

 

Whether they are better than their 2023 or post-Cooper 2024 groups probably only matters if they get HUGE improvement from Coleman and both Palmer and Samuel play better than their 2024 seasons.    They need to be much better than the 2023 group.

When he stays in his lane  (space and physics) sure.  When he starts letting politics overtake what should be scientific facts, not so much.

Is this still the Gabe Davis thread?

I think last year there was a really big unknown factor - Hollins was a cast-off, Coleman a rookie who didn't test well, samuel who was brought in to play a few different roles as an upgrade over Mckenzie and Harty on offense, shakir only had 65 targets in 2 seasons, and MVS who was there as a deep threat.  Hollins definitely was worth his contract, coleman made some highlights and lowlights, samuel missed a bunch of camp with turf toe and then played through it, and MVS was a disaster.  

 

This year we know Shakir is legit.  We saw some highlight reel plays from Coleman, and he played a lot better before his injury.  Samuel never felt like himself, but he did score 2 playoff TDs.  Now you add in palmer who is a blocking type of receiver who can get open down the field, and Elijah moore who gives you a bit more from slot depth that wasn't there last year.
