100 percent true but like i always say, good players should look good vs bad defenses. Its when players look bad against bad defenses that the panic kicks in
Sooooo, Kenyan Drake is a good player? Because he is getting buried by everyone.
Very different situation, Gibson is a rookie with very little NFL experience. Drake was not, many knew what he was but decided to buy into him anyway. Had gibson been in the league for the amount of time Drake has i would not be saying anything about this performance from gibson
I don't think one being a rookie and the other not has anything to do with the conversation being had. Simply "good players" against "bad defenses".
Bot 101 makes a good point.
Dallas' defense is so bad that there were incidents where Cowboys safeties were literally facing the goal line with Wash RBs running behind them, because they have no clue what they are doing out there. Bob Sturm on twitter posted both of the still shots.
Odds are that Bishop Sankey would rack up 100+ yards on this defense, sadly.
Gibson is an excellent buy candidate after the Dallas dust settles for rebuilding teams. He's shown to be an adequate runner, at minimum, but the surrounding talent around him is awful. He won't be a top producer week in and out this season, but with another year of top picks for Wash that will hopefully change and he should be able to take advantage.
