Steptide Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Allen practiced all last week. I'd be shocked if he isn't 100% this week, especially after a week off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Two top ten tackles and he's still hurt. Is he getting smashed? Is it just a freak thing? Or is it that Mariota is soft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nerve injuries can be tricky I've had one in my elbow myself. The UCL is obviously very important because of throwing but I feel like if the drs say the ligament is ok then he should be ready to go. 26 minutes ago, MrEpsYtown said: Two top ten tackles and he's still hurt.

He's been hurt a lot, but what I saw today was a pocket collapsing in from poor tackle play. Again two top ten picks, plus Josh Kline and Quinton Spain who is probably a premier free agent guard this offseason. Something there isn't working. Honestly I just think they don't have enough talent on offense outside of Corey Davis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think he’s got a good safety valve now with dion lewis to mitigate the trash at WR (besides Davis) but apparently not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UCL injury that Allen sustained will almost certainly never heal completely........a week doesn't mean sh*t for an injury that would probably requires years of relative inactivity to regenerate......... the Bills just gotta' hope it never pops.

Agreed. It seems like they aren't really using Lewis the right way. I thought Matt LaFleur would do a lot more. I guess he really was just Sean McVay's caddie.

Terrible pain and a big setback in his ability to get out on the courts. They talked about surgery, or if it’s better to wait and wait and see if it heals. Eventually he learned that if it went ahead and completely tore, his pain would end and there would be no negative consequences. I don’t trust doctors.......

BillsFan692 Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 Mariotta got smashes badly on the play he was hurt he got tackled by like 4 different people from 3 different directions and 3 more people fell on top of him after. It was just real awkward. Plus he got hit helmet to helmet pretty late while defenseless. Similar to joshes injury, no flag on anyone was thrown which is a total joke in my opinion. If it was Brady there would have been 10 flags down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's right, because odds sadly tell us that the Bills would have squandered the better draft picks be it by trade, or ill advised picks that lead to losses. I know that we say it every year but in the 2019, the Bills stand a great chance to do things right. They absolutely must give Allen weapons and protection and the opportunity is there if they are smart. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it sure does help much of the time, or so I think. The qb has to get rid of the ball and good play calling helps as well. Still, I agree with the above as written. The same would certainly also apply to cornerbacks running backs, and every other position (except QB), no?
