26CornerBlitz Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 NOTEBOOK: Lions Suffer Multiple injuries in Arizona Detroit beat Arizona Sunday 17-3, but it came at a cost. The Lions lost talented rookie defensive lineman Da’Shawn Hand to a knee injury and veteran defensive end Ziggy Ansah to a shoulder injury just three plays apart in the second quarter. Both players were helped off the field, evaluated in the medical tent and then carted off the field to the locker room. Neither returned to the game.

26CornerBlitz Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Quick Hits: Making up for the loss of Matt Milano The Bills lost one of their top playmakers on defense Sunday when Matt Milano suffered a broken fibula that required surgery on Monday. Replacing him as a three-down player won’t be easy for the team’s final three games. “The good part is Matt did a really good job. I thought he really grew this year. We’ll miss him. We look forward to getting him back in the offseason,” said head coach Sean McDermott. “(Replacing him) will be by committee. We’re still working through that. We’ve got certainly Lorenzo (Alexander) could fill that role and some other guys with respect to Deon (Lacey) and Corey (Thompson) and potentially Julian (Stanford). So we’re still going to work through that.” McCoy and Ivory are day to day LeSean McCoy and Chris Ivory were two other casualties in Sunday’s loss to the Jets. McCoy left the game after just a few plays with a hamstring injury. Chris Ivory left in the second half with a shoulder injury after landing on it with all his body weight at the end of a running play. Both are listed as day-to-day.

Take a page out of Sabres book, tank to close out this year, then win 10 in a row next year. A loss to Detroit is a great beginning. Our D is close. We have our QB. Foster is coming around.

We are in a power position. Justin Hebert and Dwane Haskins are both going top 10 IMO. And with tulip mania for QBs, some team will give a fortune to secure one of those 2 QBs. The Gmen(currently 9) and Jags(7) most likely are drafting a QB in 1st. There is a slight drop off after Haskins and Hebert. So any team that wants to leapfrog ahead will have to pay a steep price(Josh Allen, Trubiski, etc) and we would be in an action position. We traded 12, 53, 56 to move up to 7. By example, dropping to 12 we might still be able to draft Metcalf and have two additional second rounders. And that is a move to 7- how much more expensive would a move to 4 be? Bosa, Quinnen, and Oliver seem like locks for top 3. 4 pick would be hot commodity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets tank, get some impact players, and contend next season. Sing it with me- T-A-N-K! TANK! TANK! TANK! Why? What's the point of this? I'm not going to be crazy upset if we lose our next 3 games and lose them the same way we lost the last couple weeks. But if we lose our last 3 games the way we lost to Baltimore, Indy and the Bears, I'm going to be seriously concerned. This Sunday's game the game I'd choose of our remaining 3 that I'm most okay with losing. I really, really wanna see the Bills play a little bit of spoiler to the Pats and Dolphins. These last 3 weeks are still about the growth of Allen primarily, along with some of our younger guys like Edmunds and Foster. If we win our next 3 and those young guys look good, who cares about the 5 or 6 draft spots it'll cost us? We aren't drafting a QB in the 1st round this year, so draft positioning just doesn't matter all that much. Plus, isn't this a really top-heavy draft for Defense? Yeah, I don't think we're focusing on the defense much this offseason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice up and hope this year was just a bad season. Not the end of a great career. McCoy looks completely finished and it’s sad to see. Save the misery. Put him out for the rest of this year and see what the young guys have. No argument will ever convince me to put McCoy back in. We are out. He is banged up. He has done nothing but struggle...End it.

You're also the one who wanted to see Barkley continue to play and had a focus on playoff scenarios these past couple of weeks. Murphy is a decent complementary back at 27 years old who can be a change of pace guy and Ford looks like a try hard fringe guy. Ford might actually get some snaps in these last few weeks, but McCoy is in the plans for 2019 as far as we know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
