YoloinOhio Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 58 minutes ago, RoyBatty is alive said: Unfortunate. No such thing as a gimmie game in the NFL, esp if you are the Bills. The 49ers crushed the Bengals with a running attack, mostly off tackle, Singletary wil be sorely missed imo. If the team is any good it shouldn’t impact them that much. They should be able to build a successful offensive game plan without him and the defense should be able to take care of their end especially at home. Whether they do or not is the question but there is a reason the Vegas line hasn’t moved. Typically the only injury that moves the line is QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Former second-round pick, I thought he'd be a tad more productive than he has been but he's another 'Bama RB that had the benefit of a monster OL in front of him. I think he’ll have a solid game this week. I’m going to guess at least 70 combined yards and more than 5 receptions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Good as we need him badly for the NE game, so would rather rest him and see if he can be 100% next week than rush him back and have him aggravate it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gray Beard Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Rest him against the pats as well. The eye test tells me the Bills aren’t ready to beat them no matter what, so there’s no need to bring him back too soon for that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Credit to the team's medical staff, as well. Doesn't appear they're in the business of rushing players through a half-assed rehab process just to get them on the field. Seems like they're very well-organized in terms of rehab plans and timelines for returns. Knox missed most of camp with a hammy, came back ready for the season, and the injury doesn't seem to be affecting him at all. I'd rather have a full-go #26 for the Pats than an injured one for the Bengals. I might be in the minority here, but I'm interested to see what Yeldon can do. Good pass catcher. Unfortunately I was hoping for singletary to play. Watching the Cin v 9ers game, Cin defense was really exploited by speed to the edge and elusiveness outside all game. I’d suggest this exact injury is a case why I wished McCoy would have been kept over Yeldon, but it’s time to move on....

Estro Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Singletary is a big loss. He's been a huge boost to the offense. I wouldn't be all that surprised if his hammy turns into a multiple week injury. Rushing back from a pulled hamstring too soon increases the chance of reoccurence and with only 2 more games until the Bill bye the smart move might be to keep him on the shelf until after the bye. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We go in 3-0 and anything can happen. We just need to play a perfect defensive game. Hit and hurt. Don't back down in the trenches on O or D and make them pay hard for every yard. We need to send a message to NE that we defend our dirt and no one comes in here and kicks us around. Rattle Brady enough and he's a little b!tch. He'll cry to the refs, deflate a ball, roll over and play dead to get a flag. But constant harassment and he's not the same QB. The one thing we've done really well is bat balls down. Get the hands up, get the pressure on, smother the little old f"ker like hot sauce on a wing, then eat him up.

That is a huge game to set the tone. Even if they lose, they need to be competive, as well as get a true measure of themselves against the the Patriots. Conceding games to the Patriots....I hate all this "playing scared", WTF. It's terrible approach to football.

Utah John Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 The Bills injury report has four players on it. Three are out but all have injuries that should be short term. One is questionable.
