26CornerBlitz Posted October 2, 2017 Author Share Posted October 2, 2017 Walt Powell comes off the suspended list on Monday. They could activate him and waive Eric Lee if Shaq is ready to roll this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Mathews only misses a game. We beat Cincy last year with a god awful WRs corp Edited October 2, 2017 by Jamie Nails Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Any word on how long Matthews will be out? A cast on his hand has me thinking like 4 to 6 weeks or something pretty long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GunnerBill Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 This is a big blow as far as I am concerned. He might be the only genuine NFL starting lever WR on the roster. But this team is all about unheralded guys buying in and becoming players. Time for Zay to step up.... hopefully the one tough catch he made in the 2nd half today helps his confidence and he can build from there. Powell coming back maybe helps.... Holmes needs to get more separation when he is on the field. Missing a month probably means missing the Bengals, Buccs and Raiders right? I think the Bills need to go minimum 2-1 through that stretch but 3-0 is definitely doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Use one of the extra picks to get a WR. Don't waste this start. Don't try and fill an important role with some backup nobody.

Trade a 2nd or 3rd for either garcon or Keenan allen Or TYHilton as has been suggested before. I don't want to give up a 2nd... but if there is a deal out there for a 3rd that makes sense then I am all for jumping on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Fischer Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 JM loss will hurt bad. Interested to see how Dennison can switch things up with Powell et al. Probably helps the abills took a lot shots downfield, could help set stage against Bengals by spreading things out a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royale with Cheese Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 We don't really incorporate WR much in this offense. Reilly is like a Matthews, bigger possession guy.

Seasons1992 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 More tight end work....let's not try to change what's working. Manage the offense, let the D carry us as needed. I'm OK with it.

WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Trade for a WR. Now. I know I am overreacting a bit, but seriously, this was a position of weakness before our best WR was injured. Powell is ok, but teams are going to keep trying to take Clay away and there has to be someone who can keep them honest. Zay is not there yet, and he is the best we have right now.

They would have just cut him if they didn't like him, right? I figured when they kept him despite his 4 game suspension they must like what they saw in training camp.

Livinginthepast Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 We are on a nice run here but injuries like Matthews could derail us very quickly. The key to winning in this league is depth.

We need to fill Matthews position asap. Bringing in a vet for a short term rental? Damn you Boldin why did you retire!! Boldin looked terrible. I don't think he was the answer to any question the Bills were asking. And given the culture of "team" that Beane/McDermott are building, I suspect the door is closed to his return. WR is not used much in the Bills offense but they still need a target WR for TT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave mcbride Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 (edited) I hate that call though. Once in awhile okay. But they had guys getting open today. I think you throw to the endzone on that down and distance in this game. Yeah, felt the same. If he led him, there's a decent chance it'd have been picked. also, attributing the injury to the throw is a big reach; he was injured on the tackle, and he was going to be tackled no matter what on that play.
