YoloinOhio Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 I dont even think he travelled with the team to London Translation: 3 series and then done for the day CBF he did go to London with team
26CornerBlitz Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 I dont even think he travelled with the team to London Translation: 3 series and then done for the day CBF IIRC, he did actually travel there. Although my recollection could easily be faulty.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 he did go to London with team Well that didnt take long AND I was corrected by BOTH of TBD resident news breakers! Thanks guys! So I guess he must be tired from being rusty and trying to get back in to game shape? CBF
John from Riverside Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 We are are nit picking this poor kid to death So he is going to play? Do you care whether or not he rests up before he does it?
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) The muscles, especially related to the injured area, get tired from inactivety. Not too hard to understand it takes time to build back up. Edited November 6, 2015 by The Thurmanator

BuffaloMatt Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 I guess he wont be walking the walk. Sad. Seems like Limpy Watkins is lining up his excuses. Like I said on page 43 time to start being the Sammy he wants all of us to revere.
davspo Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Sounds like 2 catches for 17 yards and an ice pack to me. Yes fans are nitpicking him but he is the one who couldn't control his mouth, now he has to deal with the consequences.

The screening process for members around here needs to be tightened up.

Nanker Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 What's everybody got their Bike twisted up with their testicles for? You know Roman's game plan will be that he will get 3 - 5 designed targets and that's all. Hopefully TT/EJ/? will actually see him open and attempt to get him the ball at least one or two times out of those 3 - 5 plays. Hell, he might even catch a ball.

What a Tuel Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) I'm really not one to call names, but whenever I hear or see "Sammy Watkins" my brain now translates that to "Fragile Sammy Watkins". He'd be a great asset to the team if he could stay healthy (obviously), but the number of injuries he's had and the manner in which they've occurred is not promising. If I'm the Bills I'm still looking to address the WR position in the offseason as Harvin won't be here and Watkins can't be counted on to be on the field. I like Woods and all, but if he's my #1 then I know I have problems. Chances are you'll get another WR that is "injury prone". The reality of it is that Sammy has missed most of the Dolphins, Giants, and Titans games because of 1 injury. He missed half of the Bengals game and the Jaguars game because of another injury. So 2 injuries. The rest of the injuries he has played through (aka 2014), but if you took a look at these other WR's, they have played through quite a few injuries as well. It isn't really a wealth of injuries and is not unheard of in the sport. Games missed by 2014 WR Class: Jordan Matthews: 0 Jarvis Landry: 0 Donte Moncrief: 0 Davante Adams: 3.5 Odell Beckham: 4 Sammy Watkins: 4.5 Brandin Cooks: 6 Allen Robinson: 6 Kelvin Benjamin: 7 Marqise Lee: 8.5 Martavis Bryant: 11 (includes 4 for suspension 7 for injury) Edited November 6, 2015 by What a Tuel
machine gun kelly Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 I'm probably in the minority, but I'd rather see them hold him in the first quarter, see if we get a nice lead and give him one more week off to be completely healthy for the Jets and Patriots. If it is tight, we throw him in Q2-4. I don't want him nursing injuries the rest of the year.

Augie Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 Is there a list of the games where he was "hampered" by an injury? It seems if you take the entire schedule, then subtract the games he missed, you might have your answer. I give the guy credit for toughing it thru the rib injury, and I want him to be great, but this is getting crazy. Get well and be great, Sammy!
What a Tuel Posted November 6, 2015 Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) Is there a list of the games where he was "hampered" by an injury? That was the dolphins game. Which was counted. Colts and Pats he wasn't injured, and the Bengals 1st half, he scored a TD, 2nd half was counted as a missed half game....so I am not sure what you are referring to. If you are referring to 2014, he played all 16 games and played through some injuries. So did Calvin Johnson. So did AJ Green. So did Dez Bryant. Edited November 6, 2015 by What a Tuel
