KellyToTasker Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 SMH Devil Dog. He did a lot more for the Buffalo Bills and the City than this one play. I'd welcome him back very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely. If we had Stevie or Williams playing last year we would have made the playoffs. A few of those games would have teetered our way.

Sojourner Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 (edited) Absolutely. If we had Stevie or Williams playing last year we would have made the playoffs. A few of those games would have teetered our way. Easy tiger. I love Stevie but that's not possible. The only game where the production may have been different is the Chargers game - way too many inconsistencies on O, as well as drops. Sign Holcomb again too. Speaking of that Kelly, I saw him 2 years ago in Charlotte Douglas. He was getting a flight to Nashville. Didn't say anything to him as he was in mid-conversation with someone at the departure gate.

Maury Ballstein Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 We would be lucky to have him back. Stevie rules perhaps he can help Cam and the Panthers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxum Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Fitz has been the only QB to know how to use Stevie's unique skill set. And it seemed at times Fitz was just throwing the ball out in Stevie's general direction and Stevie made the play. Most QBs like their WR to be where the play says he should be. Agree completely on this matter; Fritz seemed to understand how Stevie would adjust routes and possibilities where he would be. It takes a very intelligent QB to be on same page and most of the NFL QBs are not that good at multi-route plotting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our redzone offense was horrid. You are trying to tell me having Mike Williams or Stevie Johnson, would not have had an improvement? Also there were several games that were close. Texans, Chiefs, Dolphins (probably our worst offensive showing), Raiders. 3 out of those 4 were decided by less than a touchdown. A red zone target would have made a difference.

And it seemed at times Fitz was just throwing the ball out in Stevie's general direction and Stevie made the play. Most QBs like their WR to be where the play says he should be. Agreed. Fitz's Harvard-educated brain allowed him to compute all the possibilities of where Stevie was supposed to run a pattern...and then throw it somewhere else. Invariably, that was the correct choice...

SF Bills Fan Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I like Stevie. But he doesn't fit here anymore. We need a tight end and depth at running back and on o-line. I'm sure stevie will have no problem finding a new team. I'd run as fast from the Niners as possible if I were Stevie. That is a sinking ship.

KellyToTasker Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Get it done Whaley. Bring Stevie back. He can represent the number of productive Bills that were on bad teams and unable to make the playoffs. I always liked him. He was committed to Buffalo.

Alaska Darin Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Stevie Johnson's mistake was playing with injuries, maybe he thought gimping around would be appreciated as kinda a warrior mentality thing but fans only appreciate playing with injuries when the player is effective. If SJ is healed then he should have no problems catching on with another team at a more modest salary, if the groin injury is still nagging and reoccurring then he might be out. Wrong. Stevie Johnson's mistake has been not being dedicated enough to do the work during the off season to keep himself in top shape which is why he's consistently injured. Million dollar athlete, 10 cent brain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reddogblitz Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 SJ's next stop will be the land of Bills cast off WRs, the New Jersey Jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truth on hold Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) Yeah let's not get the last bills WR to get 1,000 since moulds. And the only WR we've ever had to get 1,000 in 3 consecutive seasons, with one of the crappiest qb's we've ever had.

YoloinOhio Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 @ChrisTrapasso: League source tells me Stevie Johnson has not yet been cut by #49ers nor have they asked for a pay cut. But that request is likely coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
