GunnerBill Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 If we are going to invite them to run again to some extent then I feel better if a lot of that running is Darrel Williams. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProcessTruster Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Remember when EJ Manuel "threw" Watkins into that ankle injury in the end zone? I was a bad throw, but come on man, Watkins was so brittle. So good to have traded him away to another team who can deal with that. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can play on it - actually Rivers had it too when we played him - but it doesn’t just get better if you continue to play on it. Most players with it miss time. He will need a metal plate and a shot I assume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO, Watkins has always possessed tremendous talent that has never consistently manifested on the field. The fact is that he is receiver with a career 58 catch percentage who struggles to stay on the field. I had no problem when they decided to let him go and I have no personal animosity toward him. I have more of an issue with Whaley for what he gave up to get Watkins, than I do with Watkins himself for not living up to the expectations that came with it. 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pain in other areas of the body help with Toe pain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason he got hurt against the Browns. 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's never a player's fault when a team drafts him too high, or gives up too much to get him. The player does what he can do. Watkins showed flashes of brilliance but could never keep himself intact enough to excel. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And generally the toe gets worse the more you play on it, not better. Running is actually a big part of Mahomes game, though not talked about much. He loves to run on 3rd downs. I wonder how much this limits him? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 (edited) mahomes is the luckiest qb in the league when chucking up passes that should be picked off but aren’t. Bills need to rush with discipline, keep him bottled up in the pocket and his mechanics may get thrown off with that injury.

BuffaloBillies Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Anyone on this board ever have turf toe? It's obviously painful and takes forever to heal. I'm wondering if (when) he gets shots in it to numb it throughout the game, if that makes him able to use/ push off with that foot normally. I'm guessing he's been practicing this week with the shots to realize what It's going to feel like and what limitations he has. Probably a strange sensation having that part of the foot numb... but how debilitating is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say it’s his fault that he alligator arms passes, avoids contact by running out of bounds frequency, and has stated that he was always drunk and high while in Buffalo. I don’t think I’m making a blind assumption, in his own words the effort wasn’t there when he was drafted. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
