That’s why just scrubs play the last one. This is actually why I think game four is important-- for the scrubs. I also think this is a good reason to only have one cut-down date from 90 to 53. Other teams are watching game four more than we are. They want to see someone shine in a position of need for them. In that respect, it makes for a pretty fun battle IMO between people trying desperately to keep their NFL dreams alive. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d bet they were 95% sure what they were dealing with on the spot. The MRI just confirms their tests. Share some good news already! The replay is on NFLN now, and it’s glaring how different the offense looks when Allen is not in there.

Let’s hope that’s a 15-20 year trend. To me, the most telling aspect is how quickly Williams’ Defense changed tactics from full out Go to deep safety’s and CB’s. Yes, he was daring the punk whiz kid to launch mortars and see if he was smart enough to take what was left open underneath. Surprize!! DC’s across the League landscape haven’t slept yet! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about how severe the sprain is, but most are a 3-4 week injury if no procedure.

It was "broken" just long enough.... you may well be correct on this one. I mentioned somewhere that in the short term this is a good thing. More reps for both Nathan Peterman and Josh Allen ( ahem) this is winding down now. or up depending. Place yur bets folks. they are at the halfway point on the track and positioning for the break to the finish. AJM is bringing up the rear as an "also ran" at this point.

Bad humours show themselves in mysterious ways. best to keep Josh and Nathan pure and getting more divine reps with the Ones 8 hours ago, nucci said: "i'm getting better" thunk.
