junior Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Same could be said for the Bills: Quote The Buffalo Bills received some good news on the injury front when wide receiver Stefon Diggs returned to practice Monday. But in today’s edition of the Bills daily links, we discuss the growing list of Bills who are sitting out with various injuries. The list includes wide receiver John Brown and defensive end Quinton Jefferson, who are out with illnesses that are not believed to be COVID-19-related, along with defensive tackle Vernon Butler, tight end Tyler Kroft, guard Quinton Spain, cornerback Josh Norman and more.

Greg S Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Every team will be dealing with this. No real offseason, no preseason games. Their will probably be more injuries than usual because of it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true, that's actually a huge relief. Kroft needs to stay healthy so we can actually see what he can do in this offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest problem for the Jets lies with their injuries on the offensive side of the football. Darnold is down to scraps on the outside even those scraps are starting to come up lame. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I've been reading Jets forums and camp reports just about every day. Most Jets fans are convinced that this type of injury rash is happening all over the league. I disagree. While there are lots of soft tissue injuries so far this year, I haven't seen any other team suffering the same level of bad injury luck as the Jets so far. I remember when it used to happen to the Bills every single year, and I thought it was just dumb luck. Then the Bills brought in a completely new strength and conditioning staff and nutritionists and spent a bazillion dollars building state-of-the-art training and rehab facilities at One Bills Drive. Lo and behold, Bills players stopped getting injured at such high rates -- knock on wood. Anyway...in 12 days, the Bills actually get to play these jokers. It's gonna be a laugher. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am soooooooooo looking forward to our preseason games 1 and 2. Fish will be a slight upgrade but the Jests "should be" easy pickings.

That center they put in last year is SOTA and I believe it is NO coincidence at all that the Bills are a healthier squad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also they have a revamped OL. While they may be better on paper, the lack of practice time and preseason games will make it almost impossible to develop chemistry. Playing the Bills and 49ers the 1st two weeks is not an ideal situation for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Wiz Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 This is likely bad news for us since the backups were better than the starters last week. 1 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgotBILLStopay Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Injuries noptwithstanding, I still expect Greggo's defense to be good. It is their offense we should take advantage of. I am expecting sacks / turnovers / defensive scores for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
