FireChan Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Nobody caught him from behind on his TD, on which you accused him of celebrating early. I believe he meant the TD pass that didn't actually turn into a TD because Sammy cele'd early. It was the same game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQwkvf8xdqE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 @GeorgeTWCNews #Bills Manuel on Watkins: He's a great player and wants to help us win. Don't think he meant anything negative by it. I like to hear that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 As others have said, it's the timing. You haven't played in a few weeks and you involved your agent? That screams immature. In his one big game in the NFL he got caught from behind celebrating too early. Later in that same game he celebrated again too early although he didn't get caught. Sammy needs to learn that he is a "professional " football player and keep things in house. I believe he meant the TD pass that didn't actually turn into a TD because Sammy cele'd early. It was the same game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQwkvf8xdqE See above...he did not celebrate too early on his TD. He slowed down because nobody was within 25 yards of him. The response to that was that "the guy that caught him was within 25 yards". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bananathumb Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Rex says Hogan also demands to be targeted, but Hogan actually does catch the ball when he is. What has Sam actually accomplished compared with other first round WRs? I'm waiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies there bandit, but they were not all equal prospects. WR4 and WR5 were not on the level of WR2 and WR1 and WR3 at the draft. And if you take WR4 and WR5 out, Sammy's rookie year was the worst. You're ruining the game! Put the names in spoilers! I'd argue that it wasn't significantly worse by any stretch. Sammy had equal number of receptions to WR1, despite playing with a much lesser QB, and had only 85 fewer receiving yards. EDIT: I see that you've edited your post, so it appears we don't differ much in our evaluations Also, WR4 was an equal prospect to Sammy; he fell due to attitude issues, not ability issues.

Dez and Demariyus were not on the level of Julio and AJ and Sammy at the draft. And if you take Dez and Demariyus out, Sammy's rookie year was the worst. Dez Bryant absolutely was - he was a total blue chipper. That was never in debate. But he was also a resident of crazy town -- hence the drop to the latter half of the first round.

Mr. WEO Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Why can't Sammy just be content entering the HOF as the greatest decoy ever? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebandit27 Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Why can't Sammy just be content entering the HOF as the greatest decoy ever? I'd imagine if they were 5-0, he'd be just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to hear that. I'm sure he did. The real question is whether TT liked hearing it since he's the QB not throwing him the ball when he's "always open."

Yes, but 1 and 2 played less games than Sammy and had better numbers. And fair on 4, but 5 wasn't close to the rest, IMO. Was a rookie QB for WR1 really better than KO and EeeeeeeeeJ?
