Probably. But if he’s 75-90%, yeah, I could see them holding him out.
This team’s goal has been one thing and one thing only all year. And they need Watkins a lot more in the weeks to follow than this one in order to accomplish said goal. [Reply]
If they hold him out when he's 90%, then they deserve to lose. The coaches aren't stupid, Sammy is just soft as hell. It's okay you can say it, nobody's gonna take your fan badge away. [Reply]

Cleveland’s safeties are so stiff and coverage deficient that they may not think it’s worth risking Watkins going down again before potential AFCCG or Super Bowl matchups.
I’m not saying I totally agree with it or that I don’t, but I could see the logic in it after watching their safety play Sunday night.
The Chiefs can and should beat Cleveland without Watkins, whereas maybe that’s not the case with some of those other potential opponents down the line.
Don’t have a choice. We’re forced to play the long game with a soft bitch like Sammy, if he even comes back at all. [Reply]

You got way too hung up on that number. It’s not like you can really quantify that sort of thing.
My point is, if that calf is bothering him whatsoever, is it worth the risk of him blowing it out in the first quarter and missing the entire playoffs altogether? [Reply]

Considering the team we're facing is capable of getting into a shootout and if we lose, we go home?

Nope. Gotta win THIS one first to get to next week. THIS WEEK is the MOST IMPORTANT game of the season. If Watkins can play, they'll play him. [Reply]

You hope that’s not the case in a playoff game with Andy Reid after a bye week, but still. And Watkins might not even play.
If Sammy was talking shit there, that's like Diet Shit Talking.
Even if he was taking a shot at Cleveland, Frank Clark talked soooooo much shit about how we were going to shut Henry down ahead of last year's AFCCG and it worked out just fine. [Reply]
