Does Josh also require $60,000 in annual service? Do his tires cost $30,000 a set?

 

If Bills fans could start a gofundme to keep Josh healthy for $90k per year, you'd have the funds in 10 minutes

4.54 vs 4.61.  Also, Gabe is a stronger dude than Keon.

 

That is relatively inconsequential. Cooper Kupp runs a 4.62 40. Davante Adams runs a 4.57, Cris Carter ran a 4.63, Anquan Bolden ran a 4.71, Larry Fitzgerald ran a 4.63...

 

Those numbers don't actually mean anything really at the end of the day...there are other factors involved as to why he isn't able to shake loose that many other players running his speed or slower, figured out how to overcome.  Coleman needs to do a better job of keeping DBs off balance regarding the route he is running that clearly he is not, whether that is because he is telegraphing it somehow or because he isn't setting them up to be on their wrong foot, or whatever

Jerry Rice 4.7

That's actually a misnomer...Rice himself stated he had no idea how to "get off the blocks" to run a 40, which caused his time to be very slow.  So yes, while he might have been clocked as that speed, that was not actually his speed in real life if he was running.  Most feel he was closer to mid 4.4's in real life or 4.5 at the worst.  I mean, how many people have you ever seen catch Jerry Rice from behind?  I don't remember many, if any.

Yea he seemed to pull away with long strides.

Official stat guy was dyslexic.  Coleman actually ran 6.41

OK, it's officially called "Practice Squad/Injured", which is like IR but for the Practice Squad where he can remain on there but not count against players on the Practice Squad.

Also doesn't count as one of 8 possible "IR back to roster" moves for the regular season.

I've already talked myself into his triumph return:

 

"He's only 26. He's got something to prove. This is the last chance to salvage his career. He knows the coaches. He and Allen have had huge games together before!"

Never understood the Gabe hate. 
 

4th rounder. Nothing flashy. 
 

Produced some decent moments in the regular season. 
 

Balled out in that 13 seconds game. 
 

Some of the guys we’ve all been guilty of gushing over in the yesteryears don’t even sniff Gabe’s jockstrap. 
 

I think 13 has a chance to help us out if he is healthy and am not going to doubt him. 
 

Go Gabe!

That's really strange. 

 

Last time Gabe was on the Bills, Bills fans ran him out of out of town on a rail by screaming expletives at him from the stands.

 

Now we want him back.

 

Weird 

Well, it's kinda like getting sick of a bologna sandwich. You can't stand to even look at it. Then you're served a steady diet of 💩 sandwiches. After a while bologna sounds pretty darn good

I'm glad.  Davis' 40 time never scared anyone but he has game speed and uses his size to actually box out CBs and Safeties.  Keon has not learned that yet.  For whatever faults Davis has, he's played big in big games before for us.

The way I see it…Bills fans are extremely passionate when it comes to the team.   Passion usually runs to the extremes.    When all is good.. Bills passionate fans  will be all in on their praise and support (including spending hard earned money to support players).    But that passion gets flipped when things don’t go well.   And the passion goes from unbridled love to.. get the bum out of town!   
 

Basically we’re the crazy ex girlfriend in this relationship.

If nothing else, it forces KC to spend time and build in a contingency in their game plan in the event Gabe is called up to the 53.
