Let's be objective
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to HumbleAndHungry's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
So we sucked last year basically? -
6-10 3-3 inside the division 3-7 outisde the division
-
I don't want to get WAY ahead of myself but Watson, Turbitzky and Mahomes all showed promise in their first live action the other day. If players keep developing we could be just fine as a league as a whole. Throw in Wentz looking decent and Mariotta and Winston continuing to build on their careers and the NFL could be just fine.

Production decreasing every year. Down to career low 11.0ypc last season. Is his body starting to slow down on him? Same thing with Boldin. If you throw any receiver the ball enough they will rack up yards. Thing is, on this team they are not likely to get the ball thrown their way that much so it would be a good guess to see production drop.

2917: This is the year Brady's age finally starts to catch up to him -
Rams' fan reaction to Sammy trade
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He won't have a choice if the Rams tag him. If he gets tagged he may decided to sign a long term contract with the Rams or just play under the tag. Many options really. -
The Plan (Kirk Cousins)

Why? I imagine the Bills have several people on salary that only talk and consider next years draft. So why can't fans? -
Rams' fan reaction to Sammy trade
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
The ankle twisting TD was against the Bengals and yeah that was just before the half and he didn't return. The other games was Miami as you correctly said. There he caught a 30 or 40 yard pass and pulled up with a strained calf muscle. -
Rams' fan reaction to Sammy trade
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As long as Watkins stays healthy, plays 14/16 games at minimum I see the Rams doing whatever they have to do to keep him. Regardless of his stats. Bringing in Watkins for the Rams is more about finding out what they have in Goff. Very good chance that next year they will be picking somewhere where they have the choice of sticking with Goff or going a different route at QB. Watkins helps them evaluate Goff if he can stay on the field. -

I'm fairly high on Garoppolo. I don't see him turning into a dud like Cassel. The 2018 off-season will be interesting for the Pats. I'm a little worried about his durability since he was injured after only playing 1 and a half games last year. -
Rams' fan reaction to Sammy trade

Look at the number of targets and you will probably find your answer. Did he not produce because he wasn't 100% or because we only through the ball a total of 25 times and Sammy only saw 6 or 7 balls thrown his way? My guess would be on the latter over the former. -
Rams' fan reaction to Sammy trade
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Even when 100% healthy he's been a decoy in our ground and pound offense. Remember the Kansas City game? That should have been a 3 TD 200+ yard game for Watkins. But he went decoy in the second half no fault to his own. -
Rams' fan reaction to Sammy trade
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's the NFL. You think other star receivers are playing 100% healthy all season? And before you say, yeah but they produce, well yeah that is because they have more competent QBs and passing attacks that give them 10+ targets a game. -
Rams' fan reaction to Sammy trade
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Don't hold your breath for that to happen. Look. Is Watkins injury prone? You could probably say so. But everyone is acting like the dude is going to miss 8 games again. That is extremely unlikely. As pointed out he played 29/32 games his first two seasons. Nothing wrong with that at all. He is way more likely to play in all 16 this year then miss even 4 or 5 games. As for what kind of production he puts up? Well that is part of the key to this trade. Would Beane ever have had the balls to trade him to a team with a legit QB? I'm thinking not. But with him going to a team with a bad QB, it almost insures that the Bills at the very least don't come out looking like they got smoked in this trade. With Goff, Watkins cieling is probably 1150 yards and 10 TDs. -
Feel Like We Are Going Back To Dark Days
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to Ittakestime's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
And this year they are going the other route. Bringing in Gilmore, Gilislee, and Cooks. They haven't exactly been good a drafting players the last decade. They just have Brady and Belicheck and really that's all that matters. -
Feel Like We Are Going Back To Dark Days
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to Ittakestime's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
They need to ditch Taylor then. Why start him this year and win say three games you would have lost with Peterman or Yates at QB instead. Insure that you get a top five pick. May even need to ensure you get a top 3 pick with the number of teams looking to tank. -
Really impossible to answer this question I think. I will say I do expect better production out of the receiving core this year compared to last year. But that's not to say Watkins/Woods/Goodwin isn't better. Circumstances just lead last year's production to be way down because Watkins missed 8 games. It would be foolish to expect Watkins to miss 8 games again in 2017. On the other side we have Boldin who will be playing at the age of 37. And he is coming off a year where his ypc tanked from an already low 11.4 to an abysmal 8.7 ypc. Boldin's YPC has gone down in each of his last six seasons so expecting a resurgence above 10ypc could be wishful thinking. Matthews has also seen his YPC decline for two straight seasons all the way down to a low of 11.0 last season. And obviously we have no idea what we have in Zay Jones.

Rams' fan reaction to Sammy trade
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I can't blame them for being excited. It is very little to give up for huge upside. Gains was their 4th CB and injury prone? Basically they gave up a second to see if Sammy can stay healthy. If he does they have a game changer. They still need a QB but franchise tag Sammy and Darnold, Allen or Rosen could be throwing to Sammy in 2018. Still worth the gamble. We used two first round picks on Sammy. They used a 2nd and gave us a player they didn't even need. -
turning the roster over fast!
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to NoSaint's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Our new GM has never heard of the Franchise Tag? 100% chance Sammy could have been here for another year beyond 2017 if we chose to go that route. -
Who are you going to watch now that Bills suck
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to CanadianFan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I'll watch the top college QB's. The Chiefs. And all the other teams we will compete with for a top 3 pick. Jets, Browns, 49ers, Jags. -
The Plan (Kirk Cousins)
Sammy Watkins' Rib replied to SectionC3's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
We should try to swing him for a player like when we landed Hughes for Sheppard.
