sven233 Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) Sammy knows what's up and it's clear from the All-22 film that he can't be stopped. Unfortunately, his QB doesn't seem to know that. Why he doesn't see 15 targets a game is beyond me. He's open all the time. http://www.buffalobills.com/video/videos/Wired_for_Sound_Sammy_Watkins/04800fe4-1d69-496c-8fd5-afbff5b9171e Edited September 13, 2016 by sven233

Defense is playing cover-2? Can't throw deep. But when that WR is Sammy Watkins you gotta throw it anyway.

sven233 Posted September 13, 2016 Author Posted September 13, 2016 (edited) I agree. Antonio Brown wasn't open tonight. Just throw it to him because he's great. Yup.....Great players MAKE plays. They don't wait for them to come. Throw him the ball! Edited September 13, 2016 by sven233
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 I agree. Antonio Brown wasn't open tonight. Just throw it to him because he's great. That's just it... Sammy is open... his routes are rediculous
Maury Ballstein Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 TT's issue or GR's? Rex's dude. You nailed it
Beef Jerky Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Rex's dude. You nailed it Funny people wanted GR as HC here.
Best Player Available Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Funny people wanted GR as HC here. GR was mentioned as Rex's replacement here less than a week ago. LOL
4merper4mer Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Rex's dude. You nailed it There is plenty which Rex has screwed up. That is clear to see if your eyes aren't bloodshot. I think though that if Roman is telling TT to not take chances by throwing to Sammy then it is on him. If TT has free reign and is holding back, then it is his issue. It only becomes Rex's issue IMO when it repeats as a pattern and he fails to address it. Within the confines of one game, I can't see blaming Rex.
Dorkington Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 So Sammy should get 15 targets out of 22 pass attempts?

LabattBlue Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 So Sammy should get 15 targets out of 22 pass attempts? I think over the course of a season an average of 15 targets a game is not going to happen...even on a team that throws a lot. That being said, there is no reason why they shouldn't be throwing in his direction 10-12 times a game.
White Linen Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 That's just it... Sammy is open... his routes are rediculous I understand that - my point is I don't care if he isn't - throw him the ball. Tyrod is capable of making the throws.
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 But wait a minute, I thought it was ROMAN'S fault that the ball didn't make it to Sammy....
MarkyMannn Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Why he doesn't see 15 targets a game is beyond me. He wouldn't last
thebandit27 Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 So Sammy should get 15 targets out of 22 pass attempts? Remember the game where he got 9 targets in 11 pass attempts? That went well
BUFFALOTONE Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Keep in mind that Sammy has been kept under wraps all off season, and neither he nor Tyrod saw much preseason action together. What a lame excuse.
NoSaint Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Remember the game where he got 9 targets in 11 pass attempts? That went well it did! No one hit 13 targets a game, but a few cracked 12. Sammy was 7, so as a realistic number... an extra 3-4 target (2-3 underneath, 1 over the top) would go a long way.
