[quote=itvnetop;853116]Several writers have already called Davis a top 5 TE this season. Sometimes, I think you just like to get a rise outta people haha.[/quote]

I do. lol. Especially the Davis fans. No seriously I go to work for the last few yrs and hear nothing from a coworker but Davis, Davis, Davis..... but Davis doesn't see the field. Davis see's the field and doesn't produce much. Last year Cooley gets hurt and Davis entered the game and looked ok, not outstanding, not better then Cooley but he looked ok. and all I heard was Davis, Davis, Davis.

This year Davis is the starter for the most part and I see more dropped balls out of him then catches. I'm still just amazed at the fans who say trade Cooley. Cooley came out on the radio (I think Fri. morning) and said he spoke with GM Allen about not being able to be with the team, Cooley suggested the team cut him, give him an injury settlement, then rehire him as a coach for the remaining part of this season. Because he knows he can't be with the team but he knows he's valuable to Davis and Paulson on the sideline. He even suggested he'd take a lesser contract because he just wants to stay with the Skins.

On a side note.... my coworker this year was all about Beck, Beck, Beck..... it's sooo irritating. I'm truly sorry to the rest of you if I come off as hating Davis and Beck, but it does have something to do with my coworker simply walking around just saying ... Beck, Beck, Beck..... every time he see's me. :frusty:

[quote=That Guy;853132]the last time cooley went down, davis stayed late, worked harder and produced in his absence. Unless you're really working two TEs into your offense though, it's kind of a waste of money. NE does it pretty well, but with cooley hurt, it's hard to judge how it'd work here.[/quote]


I guess we shall see soon enough. They played both Davis and Paulson last week and I think Paulson caught a decent pass for a 1st down.

But during the week they picked up D.Byrd who played on the same college team as Davis. Both are pass catching TE's so we might start seeing more of the two TE sets starting to work out.

Fred Davis only has two drops on the entire year, not 29 drops. Hell, I don't know if he's even been targeted 57 times.

You're clearly under the influence of something while watching the games, or you're simply not watching.

#1 I don't recall giving any specific number, but having said that I would have guessed he had atleast 2 drops a game, about 2 catches for 1st downs, and atleast 1 or 2 tipped passes for interceptions.

But thats just my drugs..... right Matty? ;)

[quote=DynamiteRave;852813]People may have forgotten Cooley was playing FB for a few games. Another reason why he may not have been in on the action as much.[/quote]

Yeah like having a TE (Cooley) playing FB, and a FB (Sellers) playing TE.

Go figure.

Byrd made some ridiculous catches while he was at SC... interesting seeing Shanny pick up a similar TE to Davis.

You said he has "more drops than catches", well he has 28 catches so I'll let you figure out the rest.

Re: Cooley put on IR
 

Nope, didn't know he had 28 catches. but as I said I'd have "guessed" more drops then catches. So.... I guess he has been thrown to 57 times. lol.

You didn't care to know. You simply don't like the guy for whatever reason and are a huge Cooley fan boy so you base your judgments off delusional facts you conjure up in your head.


Kinda like the D. Hall fans. :cheeky-sm



Davis > Cooley.........7 days a week and twice on Sundays.
