Watching him get burned by a 48 year old 300 lb TE was had to watch.
Gates was great once but now...there's not excuse for that.

But, he's a leader and there isn't anyone playing better outside maybe Ragland...which was a nice pickup btw.

He's still very solid vs. the run. Unfortunately his speed and agility are gone.
He's a 2 down LB now...
