I can understand the thought process behind Wallace active because of his special team prowess, but not having Gates active seems really silly. Put the guy in 5-7 plays a game to draw the defense, throw a couple of bombs to him. Why else did we draft him? Wallace adds absolutely nothing, IMO, as a receiver to this team

 

wait, what?, gates will be on the 53...we'll carry 5..Marshall, Bess, Hart, Gates, Wallace....I don't see the confusion.

 

I'm sure Gates will be active on game day as long as he shows in preseason what he's been showing in camp. It'd be absolutely insane and ******ed not to.

 

I think JT's value to the team will be as much helping the young guys, and Wake some, as his play on the field. I would think Misi has to be happy, and absorbing more than he learned last year.

 

At this point Wake will be teaching JT.

 

Dont mistake carzy motor and talent for knowhow and skill. Jts older but you can bet hes forgotten more things about the craft than wakes learned in his time.

 

So does Gates become the new Patrick Turner.
Sparano: "I always meant to put him out there but never got around to it"

 

JT has more sack than anyone now playing the game. He got many of those with his head, as opposed to his body.

I know he can teach Wake a thing or two, and Misi more than he now knows on rushing the QB.

 

I think with JT's pride and Cam Wake opposite him, we will get the best out of JT this year.

Pod, are you saying that wallace is going to be on the game day roster over Gates.? or because its 46, were only gonna activate 4 receivers and wallace is gonna beat gates out for the spot.?

 

Please. Let me know when Wake puts together the body of work JT has. He's showing great potential but has to do it consistently and have the full game that JT has had. Your JT hate is bleeding through.

 

i hope you are right, gates inactive would be a disaster

 

He can teach JT to have a 29 year old body? Because I'm not sure what else he could teach him.

 

When Wake was on NFLN a few months ago, he explained why he does not like the arm over.

 

Most of the time in recent years we only activated 4 of the 5 WRs on the 53 man roster. I don't consider Wallace a lock to make the 53 man roster. Gates would really have to mess up not to make it.

 

Yep. He said it can put you off balance and can put you on your back. He prefers the pull & rip or rip and pull or something like that. That was the best part of that interview and what he said made a lot of sense.

 

Gates will be active if only for his KR and PR duties...

 

Dippin and Rippin baby. My preferred technique when I played.

 

Wake has mastered getting low...I want more flags. The guy is held every time.

 

Wake isn't a swimmer. Nor is he DL named Bruce Smith
Odd comparison....

 

Release the kracken!!!!
