Lothar Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 From twitter feeds ... on Yahoo's NFL page RT @buffalobills: Jackson: will wear a custom brace upon his return. Says return is 70-75% likely RT @buffalobills: Fred Jackson on if Spiller's absence puts pressure on him to return: "New England has always been the goal" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I'll just say "wow." If FredEx can return, and play at a high level, a mere three weeks after almost having his leg blown apart by a sideways hit, he is superhuman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aristocrat Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 He is a gamer and so glad the team rewarded him with the deal. Him and choice behind our line who seem to be out to prove something will move some chains on sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 If Fred Jackson can go in any way it's fully worth it. No offense I get wanting to save players, but no one is ever 100% healthy as the season moves along. If he can play then let him play. I would rather take the chance and win games that have a possible outcome on us making the postseason, then lose and keep players healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atlbillsfan1975 Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I am torn. I see both sides to the arguement. If the medical staff thinks he is good and Freddie feels good then let him play. Some injuries will not totally heal unless surgery is done. Not sure this is the case for Freddies injury. If he can not do anymore damage and can endure the pain then let him play. The other thing that worries me is N.E. is a dirty team to me. We, as Bills fans, have seen first hand how they will intentionally try to injury players. I watched the game last night and saw Mankins spear a defender in the back on N.E touchdown play. It was dirty and uncalled for. I worry that Wilfork or another defender for N.E. will try and see just how healed Freddie is. Their head coach thinks he can do whatever he wants(putting his hands on the ref) so why should the players be held to a higher moral standard?

Bufcomments Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 I say if there anyway Fred can play even at 80 percent u play him because with him your chance of winning goes way up. Its a division game with a chance to go up 2 games on the Pats. Damn right you play him even its its to use him for the screen game . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 gamesmanship for NE week Nonsense; such tactics are useless against a veteran team with a coach like BB. They're already preparing for a full strength FredEx and Spiller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Nope. Not worth it. No way. STAY HOME FRED! I hope you're being sarcastic. At 0-1, we're already in a division hole. We're not playing for a Wild Card spot, we're playing to make the playoffs by winning our division--which means we go after division games with EVERYTHING WE GOT. Nonsense; such tactics are useless against a veteran team with a coach like BB. They're already preparing for a full strength FredEx and Spiller. And then POW, we hit them with nothing spread, five-wide sets ALL GAME LONG! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swnybillsfan Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 if freddy is healthy and feels good, then it would be a huge boost for the bills. not just on pure talent, but the emotional lift. this good should have a playoff atmosphere to it, and if fred is on the field, i think the level of play raises exponentially. but if he is not ready, i'd save him for san fran when he could potentially be paired with a healthy cj spiller and just unleash hell all over the niners!
