Prickly Pete Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I still want them to get a better receiver.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 wow-- guy just gutted it out. Pretty tough.
Codyny13 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 That's pretty amazing...no way that doesn't effect your game
peterpan Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I still want them to get a better receiver. Woods was very good up until this year. I chalked it up to chemistry with TT and the new offense. Considering the injury I defiantly want him back.
Charles Romes Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 That explains my fifth grader's comment: "why does #10 always fall down."
BuffaloBill Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 wow-- guy just gutted it out. Pretty tough. Tough yes, smart? Maybe not. Six week recovery so he may have helped the team more by correcting the issue, healing and then coming back.
johnwalter Posted January 4, 2016 Author Posted January 4, 2016 Tough yes, smart? Maybe not. Six week recovery so he may have helped the team more by correcting the issue, healing and then coming back. Would he make the call on that or would the trainers?
Beerball Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 May explain why he was never used on punt returns.
billieve420 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 I say move Woods to the slot dump Hogan. Get a big #2 receiver opposite Sammy. Look what having 2 big WRs did for Fitz this year and tell me it didn't have an impact.
quinnearlysghost88 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 why are we giving him props? you played handicapped and thus under-performed at your role? thank you!
JoeF Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Definitely makes me retract some things I wrote and thought about him earlier in the year. He still has a misguided temper at times that causes stupid mistakes and penalties (think Jerry Hughes of the offense) but he has a great competitive drive and some talent. However, I still believe the Bills need better depth at the WR position...make teams pay dearly for doubling Sammy. Maybe if Clay, Harivn and Woods were truly healthy they would fill the role -- but Harvin's as durable as soft pencil lead and Woods and Clay were dinged all year...We need a ying to Sammy's yang..

Prickly Pete Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 (edited) Woods was very good up until this year. I chalked it up to chemistry with TT and the new offense. Considering the injury I defiantly want him back. I like him, and would like to keep him. I didn't say "Get rid of him!", I said I want better. He hasn't been anything special. That explains my fifth grader's comment: "why does #10 always fall down." I recently watched a college highlight video of his, and he was falling down back then too!

quinnearlysghost88 Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 you sentimental softy i mean, in the end, this is a job. his injury hurt us. we buffalo fans love all of these feel-good stories that have nothing to do with on-the-field production. former players complimenting our fandom, former players choosing to live in buffalo, players playing hurt, saying the Ralph is a hard, loud stadium to play in, that the Pegula's run a class organization, etc. we love all of this back-patting, and it means NOTHING. absolutely nothing. just the longest NFL playoff drought and lots of warm fuzzies to hang our hat on as we start threads titled 'what team are you rooting for in the playoffs?'
Big Turk Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 No idea how he did it...I've had a groin PULL and I could barely walk let alone think of running, stopping, starting and cutting...big props to Woods...he must have been one hurting mofo during the week
Prickly Pete Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 He didn't seem to be running with a limp or anything.... What does it say about the rest of the WR's, if they can't outperform a guy with a groin tear?
Coach Tuesday Posted January 4, 2016 Posted January 4, 2016 That explains why it seemed like he lost all explosion, couldn't get out of his breaks, and couldn't break any tackles this season. Damn.
