BringBackFergy Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 @rapsheet #Bills WR Sammy Watkins could play, as was the case last week. But the thought was, who does it help to have him at 50 or 75 percent? For most teams, it would help by providing a receiver (or in the case of a fracture femur, a decoy requiring coverage)...but in Sammy's case, he needs to be 155% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jauronimo Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 This thread is now accepting all manner of personal anecdotes describing how you dealt with similar foot injuries and were still able to sell term-life insurance and complete TPS reports at a level deemed "Satisfactory" in your year end reviews with middle management.

Fadingpain Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Woods, Sammy and Tyrod all gone next year. Rebuild ahead. Imo Don't disagree with this, though it will never happen with Rex/Whaley in house. So add them to the gone list too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyC81 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 @rapsheet The #Bills have placed WR Sammy Watkins on Injured Reserve, putting him on the shelf for at least 8 weeks. They claimed Justin Hunter. Why not bring back Greg Little? At least he was with the team all thru training camp to learn the offense. FYI Hunter had broken ankle and surgery to repair at end of last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K-9 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Second injury mis managed to start the season for the Rex Ryan coaching staff. Last year Shady This Year Sammy I think there is merit to this line of thinking. You can't be so unwilling to go with a backup at the expense of the health of your starters. I never cared for an "afraid to lose" mentality. A good coaching staff finds ways to compensate for the loss of a starter. Every team has this issue at one time or another.

K-9 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 This thread is full of embarrassment. I thought the other Watkins thread was a race to hit bottom and then this one pops up. Bravo, semi-literate mouth breathers of TBD. You've outdone yourselves today. I hadn't read the entire thread and thought I would after reading your post. You are right. A new low for the forum. But you didn't have to insult semi-literate mouth breathers in such a cruel fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 @profootballdoc I am sure @buffalobills & @sammywatkins are considering second Jones fracture surgery as an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 What an embarrassing, disappointing player. He should give some money back. Probably will be bagging groceries in some small job in a couple. All the potential in the world. Only to Bust. And after mortgaging our future. Whaley really screwed us. Imo Thanks Doug.

OldTimer1960 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I cannot believe this team's bad luck with injuries. All teams have injuries (and suspensions), some to their stars, but Dareus, Watkins, Glenn, Clay, Lawson and Ragland - that is devastating. They are only lacking an injury to Gilmore and McCoy to wipe out ALL of their best players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyC81 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 He's not injured. There is no structural damage. He just couldn't play through the pain. Whaaaa. My foot hurts. I'm done. Could you imagine this happening when these guys weren't multi-million dollar liabilities? Give me a break. Next man up is my neighbor. He's a fat trump supporter. Runs a 14.4 40. Jack Youngblood played in the Pro Bowl with a broken leg. Ronnie Lott had half his finger cut off so he could play. Ah, the good old days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klos63 Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Makes for a tricky year next season. Sammy will be a FA after 2017, unless he has a breakout season(16 games) , will be a difficult decision to sign and for how much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rico Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Well so mich for Sammy helping to win games, at least for the next 8 +. Only helps to speed Pegula's decision to clean house. Amen. There's always a silver lining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Makes for a tricky year next season. Sammy will be a FA after 2017, unless he has a breakout season(16 games) , will be a difficult decision to sign and for how much. The Bills will likely exercise their 5th year option.
