Favorite Sammy Watkins Pass Play

The news today of SW signing with the Chiefs made me think about his Clemson days.
My favorite reception of his was when we were playing Georgia at home and Tajh threw him a short side-arm pass around mid-field. He then stared down their DB and then took off for the endzone and outran everybody.
Of course, he was in a LOT of great pass plays but this one always comes to mind when I think about him.

The catch against Maryland , twisting and diving backward into the end zone was pretty good .
Then came the game changing KO return TD a little while later.

May be the same play, but I liked the one where

The one where he totally "trucked" the Dawg defender just past the line of scrimmage on his way to the end zone.

It sounds like the same one!

It was plays like this that make it easy to understand why he just signed for $30M guaranteed in the NFL.

One of my favorites is where he's watching himself on the video board as he scores against Felon State. Go Tigers.

I don't remember who it was against but the one he "snatched" out of the air on a slant pattern. Only raised his hands long enough to ###### it!

...lest we forget where this comes from.
The hitch - and - go against FSU was a close number 2. Shocked to not see this one elsewhere, during our initial rise as a contender.

The smoke touchdown vs BC

A td was scored one play earlier and the fireworks went off, but it was called back. Very next play, BOOM, 60 yd TD SAMMY in a thick cloud of smoke that had settled on the field

It has to be the double move against FSU that broke the

ankles of that corner in his Freshman year. Close second was the move/broken tackle he put on that hapless UGA defender in 2013.

Forgot just how good he was. One in a million. With the passes Boyd was throwing, it is hard to believe he did not make it in NFL.
