duey Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Does everyone think we can afford the luxury of sitting Willis next week, to make sure his knee is OK? SF really sucks, but can we still beat them without Willis? I think so, and I think if he really did tweak the knee, he should sit so that he's healthy for the Steeler game.

kota Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 um NO, I don't care if San Fran is the worst team in the league you cannot play down to their level or you will lose. Sitting Willis is playing down to them. We are still in the playoff hunt. A starter isn't going to sit out a game to save himself. Any starter that does shouldn't be a starter at all.

daquixers Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 If we dont beat San Fran by 24 points WITHOUT Willis McGahee then we dont deserve to be in the play-offs anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Shaud looks to be a fraud. If Willis is healthy enough to play, play him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CajunBillsBacker Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 No way! When you are in the situation, the Bills will want to put the 49ers away as early as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are gonna happen. You do not rest key players just because it looks good on paper that you should win easily. The 49ers can show up any given week. This is not the little boys school yard team. If Willis is healthy, then he needs to get his ass on the field and earn his paycheck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosmicBills Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 On the radio Murph was saying Travis may be activated next week. He is healing faster than anticipated. So it's possible that Travis starts next weekend. Personally, I say dress Willis and give him the rock, but once the game gets out of hand, yank him quick.

Or dress him but don't play him unless you need him. Same goes for Travis if he's not 100%, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 You treat this like a playoff game. If Willis can at all play, he plays. If Travis is available at all, he is activated and plays. Luckily, the injury to Willis is the right knee and not the left bad one. I think he plays, although obviously we won't know until the docs look at it and he waits a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevestojan Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 dress him of course, but if he's not 100%, I wouldnt start him. I watch the 9ers a couple times (against miami and yesterday), and they reall, really are THAT bad... they arnt a team that is "catching bad breaks", they have the worst Oline i have EVER seen, and they just all around suck balls.

IF Willis is good to go he plays. Do you really think Willis is the type of player to sit it out if he can play? I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted December 20, 2004 Share Posted December 20, 2004 Next time you morons start the trade Travis crap, keep all this useless chatter in mind. A team committed to the run needs two quality running backs to get through a long season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
