CommonCents Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Fine I will take the Bet. But here is the Bet. If Sammy doesn't play 8 games next year I will change my Username to Bust Watkins. If he does play 8 games you change your Username to WatkinsMVP for one year. If you lose you should have to change it to ILoveTyrod. Just a friendly suggestion!
MAJBobby Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) If you lose you should have to change it to ILoveTyrod. Just a friendly suggestion! If I made a bet about Tyrod I would. But not Sammy. Has to be about Sammy. Guess he isn't gonna take the Username bet Edited December 2, 2016 by MAJBobby
What a Tuel Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 It's fine if your opinion doesn't change; can we agree that you are indeed basing it on false information? That's my biggest gripe with the Watkins complainers is that they become so very bitter at some unlucky injuries and think we are better by getting rid of him. That kind of logic is very frustrating. This guy says trade which is a step above that, but I run into consistent people who say cut him. It's like wtf.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 SAMMY WATKINS: "REHAB AND GET READY FOR THE GAME" (4:41) WR Sammy Watkins addressed the media after practice topics include; how his foot feels after a week's worth of practice, how he has adjusted his game to play at a high level, and getting ready to play the Raiders.
BillsFan2313 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Why are the people who complained about Sammy not playing through pain, complaining still when he is playing through pain? I guess the kid can't win....
26CornerBlitz Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 @APfeifer24 With Sammy Watkins healthy most of last year, Tyrod Taylor led the NFL with 18% of pass attempts going 20 yards or more. #Bills
Fan in San Diego Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 It's fine if your opinion doesn't change; can we agree that you are indeed basing it on false information? No because an opinion is just an observation of what I see going on.
MAJBobby Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 No because an opinion is just an observation of what I see going on. Accept the username Bet or no
John from Riverside Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 @APfeifer24 With Sammy Watkins healthy most of last year, Tyrod Taylor led the NFL with 18% of pass attempts going 20 yards or more. #Bills some folks just dont want to hear this stuff

Guess he isn't gonna take the Username bet Had to jump in the shower to get ready for a meeting, not lying going to look at a bar to buy. No I don't like the username bet, I only bet a dollar for the fun of it.
26CornerBlitz Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 some folks just dont want to hear this stuff Just as Eichel doesn't positively impact the Sabres, the same goes for Sammy with the Bills.
thebandit27 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 No because an opinion is just an observation of what I see going on. Indeed. I hear you saying that you're unhappy with Sammy's durability, and I agree that his not being 100% has been an issue. I'm sure that bothers most of us. Where the confusion comes in, for me, is when you respond to the point about Julio/Antonio/Edelman like this: All the guys you have listed are HOF players, injuries have started because of age and number of games played. Not an apple to apple comparison. Sammy started getting hurt in his 2nd year and has gotten progressively worse. My opinion, I repeat my opinion is this is not getting better, it is only going to get worse, trade him now. Too bad if you don't like to hear my opinion. We will see next year won't we? By now, I believe we can agree that that's patently incorrect, and since it seems to be a large contributor to the formation of your opinion, it becomes difficult to see the merits in the thought process.
gordong Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 (edited) Just as Eichel doesn't positively impact the Sabres, the same goes for Sammy with the Bills. Eichel is probably a top 10 player in his sport... Watkins it not. Does he have the talent too be, Yes! I hope for our sake he gets there.... but not now. That's not to say he doesn't have a positive affect on the Bills but the current state of the WR position that not saying much. Edited December 2, 2016 by gordong
GunnerBill Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 The talk of trading this kid is nonsense. Healthy I'd genuinely have him in the top 5-8 receivers in the league.
bbb Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Fine I will take the Bet. But here is the Bet. If Sammy doesn't play 8 games next year I will change my Username to Bust Watkins. If he does play 8 games you change your Username to WatkinsMVP for one year. With that math, if he plays exactly 8 games, you both lose.
jms62 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Fine I will take the Bet. But here is the Bet. If Sammy doesn't play 8 games next year I will change my Username to Bust Watkins. If he does play 8 games you change your Username to WatkinsMVP for one year. Not a good bet. Watkins has missed 25% of his games. Why would the guy take your bet at 2 x average? He would be a sucker to dit it. Offer him 4 games.
3rdand12 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 Fine I will take the Bet. But here is the Bet. If Sammy doesn't play 8 games next year I will change my Username to Bust Watkins. If he does play 8 games you change your Username to WatkinsMVP for one year. Thats a good bet. I am ready to start taking odds and hold the monies
thebandit27 Posted December 2, 2016 Posted December 2, 2016 The talk of trading this kid is nonsense. Healthy I'd genuinely have him in the top 5-8 receivers in the league. This. He is as productive--on a per-target basis--as any receiver in the game.
3rdand12 Posted December 3, 2016 Posted December 3, 2016 That's my biggest gripe with the Watkins complainers is that they become so very bitter at some unlucky injuries and think we are better by getting rid of him. That kind of logic is very frustrating. This guy says trade which is a step above that, but I run into consistent people who say cut him. It's like wtf. That is wtf. I will B word about our players, but i still want them to be on the field and play hard for us. There is not one player i won't root for during the season. Heck i am such a homer , i root for the Coaches too Why are the people who complained about Sammy not playing through pain, complaining still when he is playing through pain? I guess the kid can't win.... what? I think most everyone wants him to play. As long as he does not risk worsening his condition. and any ways , he started it !! na na This. He is as productive--on a per-target basis--as any receiver in the game. and he has not hit his ceiling by any stretch !
