Watkins’ Big Day Paces Bills

The Buffalo Bills kept themselves playoff-relevant in the AFC on Sunday afternoon by beating the Miami Dolphins, 33-17.

Part of the reason why? The Bills are finally getting healthy. Quarterback Tyrod Taylor played, as did running back LeSean McCoy, as did wide receiver Sammy Watkins.

And Watkins had a huge day...

That's the highest percentage since Qadry Ismail for the Ravens in 1999, according to Rodak.

Watkins has been a lightning rod for criticism this year: He's missed multiple games with multiple injuries and that has frustrated the fan base. He's also complained publicly about a lack of touches.

Well, I guess Sunday serves as a reminder of just what Watkins can do when he's targeted more often. Remember, he was a first-round draft pick just last season.

The Bills are now 4-4 and will take on the Jets in a crucial Thursday Night game this week.

The Bills will be wearing all-red jerseys in the game.
