KD in CA Posted October 25, 2017 Posted October 25, 2017 You know who else has had a lot of injuries? Julio Jones! Gaines is basically Julio! 😅 I miss the Watkins = Julio comparisons. What did Julio do in year 4 again?
HuSeYiN_NYC Posted October 25, 2017 Posted October 25, 2017 I'm assuming if Poyer is out, Elston starts? Bummed about Poyer, but looking forward to watching what Elston does! I'd be more concerned for Humber. He isn't even holding onto the handlebars! Bike messengers do that all the time. Humber's form is good. He'd get a few middle fingers for going so slow but he won't die like Alexander. @BradleyGelber From Poyer's fiance... Doesn't sound super promising for Sunday. #Bills @Nick_Wojton VIDEO: Jordan Poyer(knee) said he's taking things "day-by-day" this week. Added he was v nervous at first, then realized he was good. #Bills https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/923271404971286528/pu/vid/1280x720/sRo8NNjo7y7ifZmY.mp4 @JonScottTV Jordan Poyer leading the #Bills injury report with knee injury. He's encouraged by progress made in short time. Here are full thoughts. https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/923273066398003201/pu/vid/1280x720/sOoXUrvq27ASsTax.mp4 Buddy of mine sent me a photo of his fiance in a photoshoot. Poyer is blessed.

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 One of Gurley's TD runs was all setup by a big Sammy Watkins killer block this past weekend. And, Sammy DID put it together in 2015 over the 9 games to end the season after the bye where he was healthy after the early season rib injury. There is a BIG issue in LA with the Rams people commonly are over looking. Goff is NOT lighting up the field by any means. He is only averaging 245 yards per game and barely over 1 TD per game. He's only had 2 games with more than 1 TD, and had a game with zero. He has not been great at throwing down field either, so the guys benefiting the most are the guys consistently running shorter routes or seeing single coverage like Woods, Kupp and the TE's. Sammy is drawing the attention of the top corners, allowing guys like Woods and Kupp more room to operate, and Sammy is often double teamed. I watch every Rams game, and if anyone watched the game they would see all these same things. It mostly falls on Goff who is taking of advantages of the openings elsewhere while Sammy draws the better DB's and doubles. Goff still has a long way to go as a passer, and that is by far the biggest reason for Sammy's lack of recent production. Watkins is out there stretching the field on a lot of his routes with a QB who isnt very good throwing downfield yet and has a ton of weapons underneath seeing single coverage because of Watkins that are easier, higher percentage throws. #elitedecoy
atlbillsfan1975 Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 Lorax is thankful that the bike is stationary. He is all over the place.Those stationary bikes in particular are hard as hell. Try burning 40 calories on one of those things as fast as you can. It ain't easy.I'd really like to see a healthy backend of the D against Carr and all his weapons. It looked like they started putting together the deep ball against the Chiefs last game. This one is going to be tough.
Saxum Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 Gaines missed more games in 2015 than Emmitt did in his entire career. Yes but Emmitt acted like every time he reentered game it was an act of heroism.
Magox Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 I miss the Watkins = Julio comparisons. What did Julio do in year 4 again? They've moved the goal posts. It's now: "Goff just isn't good with the long ball. Not only that, do you see how much he opens up the field for the rest of his players? "
MarlinTheMagician Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 Tyrod Taylor can cover Sammy Watkins. Jordan Poyer can't throw him open.

A lot has to do with them having huge leads a lot of the games so they are running the ball most of the second half
thebandit27 Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 Yes but Emmitt acted like every time he reentered game it was an act of heroism. I feel like I read somewhere that "Exaggeration is a tool of the mentally unprepared in battle of wits"
GunnerBill Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 I already linked Goff's stats, short passing game isn't true. He rated very well in every category. I'm not sure if you are the same guy who said this before but it's false. According to NFL Next Gen stats Jared Goff ranks 12th in the league in average air yards per completion. Two of those above him are Kevin Hogan and CJ Beathard with very small sample sizes in comparison. Some of the names below him? Big Ben, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, Philip Rivers, Eli, the two Matts (Ryan and Stafford), Alex Smith, Cam, our own dear Tyrod. So yea, the idea he is running some sort of short passing offense in comparison to the average doesn't stack up.
cba fan Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) Emmitt Smith used to get injured every game but then he would just play. Maybe Gaines is like him he just wants attention so he brings issue. Emmitt won awards for injuries derisively called Emmys. He would go down in wreathing pain every game at least once, get helped off and return after one play out. Like a clock. At the sports bar I use to frequent we played a drinking game to this.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 @JaySkurski Sean McDermott confirms that Trae Elston would start if Jordan Poyer can't play. #Bills not ruling Poyer out right now.

NewEra Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 What if Trae Elston becomes the greatest safety of all time? I love his aggressiveness and willingness to sacrifice his body to lay a lick. Could be trouble in coverage though. Praying poyer plays. Would be a big loss vs this passing offense

Would be a big loss vs this passing offense He's pretty aggressive attacking the LoS and could be fooled by play action. Let's hope Poyer plays as you intimated.
cba fan Posted October 26, 2017 Posted October 26, 2017 (edited) I feel like I read somewhere that "Exaggeration is a tool of the mentally unprepared in battle of wits" That is the most complete, inexplicable, devastating, horrendous, inexcusable, absurd, overexaggeration, ever uttered in the history of the human spoken word. and it is racist.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 27, 2017 Posted October 27, 2017 @JoeBuscaglia Jordan Poyer said he did more at practice today then yesterday, but did not participate in team drills at all today. #Bills
