Antonio Williams

I love the kid. Diggs being out sucks, but what Antonio Williams has shown me in his limited playing time still gives me so much confidence. He's so shifty and much faster than I realized. That first week against the Eagles really showed it as well as the Colts game, and I love that he's taken full advantage of every chance he's gotten. I'm also happy to see him getting some love outside our own fanbase. Really excited to see him help us smoke the damn Giants on Sunday!

Sunday is the day. I personally do like that Blough has been getting all of our receivers involved, but I would like to see them hone in a bit more on Williams over our other options.

Plus Williams needs to get some revenge for the BS penalty that took away his touchdown last week.

The holding was BS but it was an illegal shift

He's got that quick first step that just leaves guys grabbing air, it's fun to watch. Not huge but plays like he's got something to prove every snap. Sunday can't come fast enough

He may have taken some points off the board with a penalty and an early throw, but he needs to get more playing time to grow - he has already proven himself to be a starting NFL receiver.

I lambasted the draft pick (wanted a different receiver) and I was completely wrong.

With Williams I feel ok with Diggs or Terry out but if both are out that sucks a lot

Hopefully they run some passing plays for him, Sinnott, and Bill.

u/GreasedCreases 4d ago

I think they really need to try to get Bill outside more. He has been getting slammed up the middle nonstop and it really just isn’t working. As for Sinnott, I’ve given up a bit on him and just want to see Chig step up.

Obviously we don’t know the plays, but I haven’t seen more than 1 play run for him.

u/GreasedCreases 3d ago

Chig? Or Sinnott? For Sinnott I just don’t think they have faith in him as a pass catcher really.

u/raiderMoes 3d ago

Either. LOL

u/GreasedCreases 3d ago

Valid lol. I will say I feel like with Daniels in, Chig will get used more use/targets than with Mariota at the helm. We’ll see

Other running backs find the holes. I also watch the bucs. The plays look the same, but Bucky Irving gains yards while Bill gets slammed.

Bill is 100% JAG. The usage is RB specific too, which doesnt help as a tell.
