San-O Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Looking at receiving (Receiver) stats some the other day: Sammy Watkins shows up as did Fred. What is everyone else doing: Not much. I am counting 13 receptions through three games for these five receivers, not including Watkins. Do stats lie? o What has happened to Robert Woods? Had very high hopes with him. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/15880/robert-woods o Mike Williams? I don't know. Beard may be slowing him down. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/_/id/13489/mike-williams o Goodwin took that huge shot going over the middle, hope he's OK, probably not the place you want him with E.J. throwing the ball. IMO. Bad Buddy Pick? http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/15839/marquise-goodwin o Hogan? No stats. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/14402/chris-hogan o Easley? No stats. http://espn.go.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/13224/marcus-easley
NoSaint Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 hogan and easley are a waste of space in the discussion
K D Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 two letters pretty much sum this up...E J if he cant get the ball to them then they arent going to have any stats.
Fadingpain Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 It takes two to tango. Have you noticed who the QB is? two letters pretty much sum this up...E J if he cant get the ball to them then they arent going to have any stats. LOL. You beat me to the punch.
thebandit27 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 o What has happened to Robert Woods? Had very high hopes with him. http://espn.go.com/n...80/robert-woods He's been getting open; I have to believe that EJ getting more comfortable would bring more catches o Mike Williams? I don't know. Beard may be slowing him down. http://espn.go.com/n...9/mike-williams IMO he needs more chances to go after contested balls--needs more designed plays called specifically for him o Goodwin took that huge shot going over the middle, hope he's OK, probably not the place you want him with E.J. throwing the ball. IMO. Bad Buddy Pick? Had a few chances, but has only played 29 snaps in 3 games: http://www.buffalorumblings.com/pages/buffalo-bills-snap-counts-2014-year-to-date o Hogan? No stats. http://espn.go.com/n...402/chris-hogan o Easley? No stats. http://espn.go.com/n...4/marcus-easley Neither has played an offensive snap.
ganesh Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 two letters pretty much sum this up...E J if he cant get the ball to them then they arent going to have any stats. Don't you think the OL has no share of the blame.
The Wiz Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) two letters pretty much sum this up...E J if he cant get the ball to them then they arent going to have any stats. So what's the reason the seahawks don't have a receiver in the top 80? Stats can tell any story you want them to. Edited September 26, 2014 by The Wiz

San-O Posted September 26, 2014 Author Posted September 26, 2014 So what's the reason the seahawks don't have a receiver in the top 80? Stats can tell any story you want them to. Defense in top # 1 or # 2 or # 3?

thebandit27 Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 Defense in top # 1 or # 2 or # 3? A good defense shows why they don't have a WR in the top 80 in catches? That...doesn't make sense.
The Wiz Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) Defense in top # 1 or # 2 or # 3? Depends on the stat you want to cherry pick. Total yards: 7th. In fact, other than rushing yards(4th), they are 7th in defense, according to the stats, in most categories other than points, Pts/G(14th in both) and Passing yards per game(20th).

The Wiz Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) Pete Carroll has found a way to win games, without huge QB/receiving numbers. Defense MAY be part of the formula??? Opponents averaging 22 points per game(14th). Buffalo is at 17.3(8th). Defense may be a part of it but like I said, stats can tell any story you want. Edited September 26, 2014 by The Wiz

Explain those away.
NoSaint Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) OK, back to our original programming: what's your explanation for the lack of receptions by the Bills receivers? Explain those away. that we are a run heavy team, and that we havent been efficient throwing to receivers yet when passing. and that 2 of the guys you listed havent played and a 3rd barely has.

#34fan Posted September 26, 2014 Posted September 26, 2014 The plays. They SUCK. We don't have a short yardage game at all. Two tight-end sets, and a big, dirty, target in the end zone is how it's done We have talented RB's that can help us move the chains, but an OC who has no clue how to use them... The Giants are killing with this Larry Donnell kid.... and the Broncs are cleaning up with Thomas and Thomas... Our BONEHEADED staff have made this game harder for EJ...This, at point in his career when he needs the most confidence. I'm convinced that EJ's accuracy issues, field-vision issues, and protection issues are ALL coaching issues! FIRE GNAT HACKETT! -Nip this BS in the bud.
