K-9 Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 When Lofton showed up Reed and the Bills offense on the whole got much better. Lofton was near the end of his career, some viewed him as done. Bills need to pick up a vet WR in the off season. Who's going to be available? Maybe Calvin Johnson? Sammy was great today. Couldn't agree more. Problem is, those days of putting in a claim and paying the $100 waiver fee are long gone for waived veterans. I look for Whaley to target a WR, regardless. GO BILLS!!! This stat suggests Manning is forcing the ball too much to Beckham. GO BILLS!!!
dave mcbride Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 This doesn't make sense. Watkins didn't have 60 catches and 1047 yards in just nine games.
Webster Guy Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 excellent way to end the season. Nice to see Sammy and Tyrod clicking and healthy at the end of the season. So important. Sammy needs to teach Tyrod the importance of going out of bounds and saving your body from the big hit. He's smart that way.
Freddie's Dead Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) Final Season stats: 60 catches 1047 yards 9 TDs That's the crime right there. Felony criminal waste of resources. Less than 4 catches a game. If Sammy had the 90-100 catches he should have, he'd be 1500+ yds, with 14+ TDs. Sentence should be loss of job, but no, they got probation.

26CornerBlitz Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 That's how you feature a #1 WR! Looking forward to big things from Sammy next year!
chris heff Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 (edited) Did you just insinuate that Megatron would come to buffalo as a number 2 WR to Sammy? Man I love this board after wins! I know, but Johnson's contract is crazy and I get the feeling they are going to blow it up in Detroit. He'll probably end up in New England. Edited January 3, 2016 by chris heff
filthymcnasty08 Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 I know, but Johnson's contract is crazy and I get the feeling they are going to blow it up in Detroit. He'll probably end up in New England. That would be devastating.
The Frankish Reich Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 And Sammy caught most of his passes over the middle today! Will wonders never cease? Tyrod and Roman using the whole field! Why doesn't the season start like, right now?
Chandler#81 Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 What they need is a number 2 that wont screw up that key throw to him while Sammy gets the lions share. If we want TT to throw the ball more and run less......then we need wideouts that dont drop the ball and fall down in the end zone So, you're saying Hogan's a goner? I agree.
YoloinOhio Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 And Sammy caught most of his passes over the middle today! Will wonders never cease? Tyrod and Roman using the whole field! Why doesn't the season start like, right now?i think it's just TT and Sammy getting in synch in different ways. It takes time.
YoloinOhio Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 @salsports Most impressive about Sammy Watkins' performance today (11 rec/136 yards) was the Jets really had no one else to worry about in passing game Sammy Watkins - 15 targets Rest of Bills WR/TE/RB - 13 targets

Hapless Bills Fan Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 The only real receiving threat out there and he still torched Revis Island. Oh, yeah. That was a big time job of undressing an all-pro DB.
Dorkington Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 We were missing McCoy, Karlos, Percy, Woods, Goodwin, and Clay today. He was basically our only weapon left. And he still torched the !@#$ out of Revis.
Kelly the Dog Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 It's infuriating because they should have been doing this the entire season. Intolerable.
Dorkington Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 It's infuriating because they should have been doing this the entire season. Intolerable. Nah, I don't think we need to force it to Sammy all game long if we're healthy. Our running game is damned good, and Clay is a really good TE. And Woods is a good possession guy if coverage is leaning towards Sammy. We're ranked like 10th in the league in offense, even with all of our injuries, I think that says what we have been doing (balance) works well.

I'm not saying he needs 15 targets but he needs 10. Look at the production! This is the first time we threw screens and slants to him. There were entire halves we didn't throw to him one time. That's unconscionable. He's one of the most talented and best players in the league. You HAVE to use him. It would be different if it were the case of you have to be careful. Or wait til he has single coverage. That has been proven to be untrue. He beats double coverage too. We succeeded on third down a lot today because we threw him the ball on third down. And he was uncoverable.

I agree we should target him more at times, but I also think we need to take what the defense gives us as far as matchups. A lot of teams double cover Sammy, which gives us other opportunities. Today the Jets appeared to stick with single covering him with Revis, and they got burned
BringBackOrton Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) These stats aren't correct. Sammy had 49 rec. and 900 yds and 7 TD's over last 9 games. Still very impressive, hopefully this continues and he can put a full season together. Edited January 4, 2016 by jmc12290
