Fumbling your first carry for a coach who has benched vets for ball security issues in the past probably has it's own process to get through before being trusted again. Hopefully the Bills get out to a big lead in some upcoming games and he gets some meaningful carries to build his confidence back up.

I think Zach Moss was drafted to be Mark Ingram. What we got is Mark Ingram... if he was suddenly stripped of any and all field vision.

Maybe Campbell had the Raven's D on his fantasy team. 🤷‍♀️

Clearly Tomlin took the Bills to cover even with the -14 spread.

Diabetes?

Instead of being afraid of bad karma, I pointed to a picture of a bloody Chuck Norris and explained to karma why it should be afraid of bad Josh Allen... n'uff said.

You mean like an informed consent form that's required for most medical procedures? I don't know how NFL teams and their training staffs handle these issues day-to-day, but in the real world those forms are routine.

When they say "Tua will be OUT Sunday against the Jets", is this an update on his playing status or are they just predicting he'll probably get knocked unconscious again?

Coach, do your constipated Bill Burr impersonation.

It's ok, though. I kinda miss the losing.

I'm really concerned about Elam.

http://13wham.com/buffalo-plus/bills-latest-news/bills-release-final-injury-report-ahead-of-sunday-showdown-in-baltimore According to this Morse, Oliver and Bates cleared, as well. Doesn’t specifically mention Poyer (listed as questionable, but doesn’t speculate on likelihood of him playing) or Hart (who I’d assume would be available because he’s served his 1 game suspension).

Holding Tua accountable assumes he remembers what happened, which is not a given.

If you’re referring to the “choke out”, the same thing did not happen to Mahomes. He was taken out of that game. Chad Henne finished it. People were outraged because he played the next game. However, even if it was a concussion, if he had passed the protocol he could have played. IIRC, he wasn’t in the protocol because they determined it wasn’t a concussion and that was why people were outraged.

This is the part that makes me ask where the team loopholes are in this process. If Tua even enters the protocol, based on no-go criteria posted on the NFL website, he’s out. I have to think any independent consultant with the benefit of all of the information that fans had at their disposal, mainly the video evidence of the sequence, are not going to risk their livelihoods over a side gig and clear him even if his testing was normal. They’re obviously not replaying the sequence in the stadium like they did on the broadcast. Regardless, it was obvious enough that spotters should have caught it. Where’s the disconnect? It makes me wonder what is the jeopardy to their credentialing? Is there an agreement in place with the NFL that limits their liability in this position?

Lil’ Dirty’s a funny dude. Trying to convince someone the spelling was wrong in their tat. 😂 Love the banter between him and Diggs - “You steal your grandad’s hat?”

I question if he was ever formally put into the concussion protocol Sunday. Everything that has been said was that he passed the tests he was administered and wasn’t felt to have a concussion, but nothing I’ve heard from the team goes so far as to say he was definitely in the protocol. The language from the team on this in my opinion has been very loose. Had he been in the protocol, given the “go no-go” criteria stating any player displaying gross motor deficits on the field is a no-go regardless of their exam, how could they clear him. I find it likelier that something in the process broke down than that he didn’t have a concussion based on him hitting his head and his reaction to it on Sunday, compounded by last night.

Since this is for Tua, why can’t we just honor his jersey number? 🤷‍♂️😉

With everything they’ve put out about the “no-go” criteria, I think the only way he could have been cleared to return is if he never actually entered the concussion protocol in the first place.

My guess, regardless of the injury, was there were only 2 minutes or less left in the half so they just took him to the locker room.

Former OC’s new team. Simple cause and affect. Don’t let the fact your blind to that effect you’re self of steam, though.

Damn, one loss under near impossible circumstances and the Bills have gone from favorites to win the AFC East to jockeying for position with NFC teams. That’s cold, ESPN… ice cold.

Never stopped hating their fan, but the team… meh. 🤷‍♂️ Haven’t been worth hating since Jimmy Johnson was coaching them. And yes, fan, singular. I think this is more akin to Bills fans thinking they were relevant to the Pats*** when Fitz beat them in ‘04… only took another 14+ years before it became reality.

Huh? Was he talking about their level of douchbaggery?

I know it might sound crazy but hear me out... it's possible that it's due to the fact that Allen has been dumping it off more this year.
