Billsfan1972 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Quite the offensive game plan. You have your best player back and Bill looked at him 3 times all day (and once back to back). This is pathetic.... Yes it is the old "You have a Ferrari but only take it out in the 25mph school zone. Conversely they did win the game, but yet again a struggle and little in the way of offense as Jacksonville knew what the Bills were running every play.

He had three catches so there had to be more than 3 targets. But I think his smaller role was appropriate on his first game back. Let's hope the same complaints can't be made next week Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) He CAUGHT 3 balls He was targeted more then that come on No he wasn't 3 TGTs 3 catches 80 yards. Just check the ESPN Box Score Edited November 28, 2016 by MAJBobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numark3 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 No he wasn't 3 TGTs 3 catches 80 yards. I can recall targets he didn't catch. Including the PI play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsfan1972 Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 (edited) He CAUGHT 3 balls He was targeted more then that come on Nope according to cbssports & espn, 3 targets, 3 catches..... One 12, one 6 & one 62..... Not sure TT looked at him any other time. Yes & one PI you're right........ So add another 18 yards. Sorry first play of the game should have been a throw to him announcing the Jax that he's back.......

MAJBobby Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I can recall targets he didn't catch. Including the PI play PI play is a penalty doesn't go as a TGT. Let me look at other charting places but doubt they are wrong 3 TGTS / 3 Catches 4th TGT (won't get logged) PI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 I can recall targets he didn't catch. Including the PI play PI doesn't count as a play, so it doesn't count as a target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 ESPN reported Syracuse coach Bernie Fine molested young boys. ESPN is **** and isn't reliable No he wasn't 3 TGTs 3 catches 80 yards. Just check the ESPN Box Score Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numark3 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 There is no doubt the biggest issue with the Bills Offense is a lack of targets to Watkins when he is healthy. It's been true since he came into the league. But this game (first game back from a major injury) is hardly the week to point it out. PI doesn't count as a play, so it doesn't count as a target. From a stat keeping perspective, sure. From a "hey the bills don't throw the ball to watkins" point, it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 No he wasn't 3 TGTs 3 catches 80 yards. Just check the ESPN Box Score That's the kind of thing that's maddening to me. The Bills cannot possibly enter a game and say "we will try to get Sammy the ball on 3 different plays." That number needs to be closer to 15!!

EmotionallyUnstable Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Sammy accumulated 25% of the team's receptions and 48% of the team's receiving yards while playing in limited action in his first game returning to action. Just saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Poojer Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Do targets mean balls actually thrown to him or plays called in the huddle that were originally intended to be thrown to him, but after TT assessed the situation felt it wiser to go to target options number 2, 3 or 4. Or would we rather throw to Sammy because he was our star player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Is this the part where we remember TT standing in the pocket all day staring at wide open receivers all over the field then scrambling for 1.5 yards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmotionallyUnstable Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Just for comparison, Mike Evans recorded 38% of his team's receptions (8/21) and accumulated 47% of their receiving yards (104 of 220). Additionally, he recorded two scores. There is definitely an argument to be made here but I'm not sure it's a fair comparison in his first game back with limited action Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 We also need to get then ball to Clay more. And run more. And.....we need more plays! But yes, throw Sammy the stinkin' ball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
