Where does it say Davis is not playing? 

Presuming the reply to a Twitter post that said “team changed plans due to injury” when the initial post being responded to said “Gabe had a setback…” ?

I have to admit - I don't know anything.

 

But I can't escape the feeling that this regime would much rather go w/ the mediocrity that they know & trust rather than take even the smallest leap to try to improve things.

 

Sure seems that way sometimes!

I’m sorry - what am I missing? People are now suggesting that Mecole Hardman should be activated and will somehow add to the offense? The guy who couldn’t hack in on the injury riddled Green Bay practice squad will suddenly elevate this team? They think he is poised to take over for Shakir if injured more so than 9 mil per year Samuel? Boy are some ppl WR starved. 

 

Many delusion takes, similar to those that were thinking Gabe will come in and solve the offensive woes simply by replacing Keon. 
 

They are likely the same ppl that ran him out of town. Btw I think Gabe is a super likable due who was overvalued, over paid, and had a stroke of bad luck with injury and regime change. That said, to think he’ll somehow step in and turn the offensive passing struggles around is farfetched.

Me too... I don't think it's rational at all, but getting Davis and Palmer in the lineup (I think/hope) is going to be a world of difference to our passing game.

I will give you Palmer.

 

But Gabe was on pace for a whopping 410 yards last year (prorated from 10 games). I am not sure what makes anyone think that his return would elevate the passing game. It’s wishful thinking of the fairy dust off 13 seconds.

For those of you calling for Gabe-give me 2-3 sentences why he can. Don’t tell me why others can’t, tell me why he should be on the field over the others. I just don’t see the need to play him 

I have to be honest.  I’m honestly kind of blown away by your question. 
 

Gabe, if he’s right, has shown the ability to stack routes and make plays down the field. 
 

Hes also shown the ability to make himself available to Josh on scramble drills. 
 

We are, dramatically, lacking both of those elements. 
 

Perhaps Palmer gives us some of that if he’s back.  But why are you asking this question like we’re crazy for wanting this?  Our outside WR situation, between personnel and coaching, has been an absolute dumpster fire.

Watch Dane Jackson or Morgan Fox get called up instead of Gabe Davis

 

🤮

The Gabe ***** is just what we do. That’s honestly why I never even entertained the thought of us adding a WR at the deadline. This coach will just not play guys. His thought process is sickening. He will not dress guys that can help you. He will constantly rotate backups for no reason. No other nfl team does it. Putting the backups in voluntary all

The time. We don’t even play the better guys on game day. It’s the dumbest ***** imaginable. Samuel is the most accomplished WR on the roster. The guy literally never plays. Our WRs are struggling but we don’t play the best guys. Cole Bishop couldn’t even get on the field last year. The coach thought he needed a year.  A day two pick this year was just inactive every week until he got hurt. Max was going to split time with a CB that was washed 3 years ago. We have a KR that is only here to return, can’t play a real position…inactive every week. WTF is he on the roster for? Nothing this guy does with the roster makes sense. It’s a laundry list of excuses trying to constantly ignore the stupidity. Coaching is holding us back so much, we deserve better than pretending it’s ok
