WideNine Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 1 minute ago, YoloinOhio said: This team with a healthy Smoke is just that much more dangerous... hope we can gradually bring him up to full speed. Last thing we want is to rush him and lose him for the post season. The Bills can still win without him, but he is definitely a player that increases those odds. 15 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BITE ME Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 This guy is the key to the Bills being a Super Bowl winner. If he is healthy and our linebackers are healthy we are winning it all. 5 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I think practices all week. Remains on IR this week. Keeps him off roster for the high altitude game saving the open spot (his sickle cell) and allows a full two weeks of practice. Denver is down what four DBs. . Activated before NE game. 21 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Denver is a classic trap game before New England but they don't need Brown to beat them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Please make sure he is healthy before playing him! Not that I expect the team to do anything other tha. That. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I'd activate him for Sunday and only play him if needed. They need to put the division title away. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby, nice pick up. I usually am pretty up on the team, but missed the sickle cell notification in 2016. I couldn’t agree more. Even with the Pats, I’d like to see how he practices this week and next week. If he is good, then maybe a pitch count to get him in rhythm. If the second seed is on the line, then definitely the Fins for the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean he has played in Denver before so that won't be an issue but I could see them wanting to get up to speed more having been out a while and not bring him back right away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure it's Denver being altitude/sickle cell trait that keeps him off, but the guy was playing his way through an injury before he got injured again. He's missed the buy week plus 3 weeks of games, so he's 4 weeks out of being in "football shape" even if his injury is healed. Makes sense IMO to give him a week or two of practice to work his way back into "football shape" before activating him. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind Brown does not have sickle cell disease, he has sickle cell trait. That was not considered to be a barrier to playing in Denver when he was a FA: https://thednvr.com/source-close-to-john-brown-says-sickle-cell-trait-wont-keep-him-out-of-denver-doctor-weighs-in/ He would have to be careful to stay hydrated and etc but those precautions apply pretty much anywhere. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but why chance it? I view it as doing with him what the Bills did with Morse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Keep SmokeY out as long as possible. We want him as healthy as he can be for the stretch run. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah John Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I'd play him and put him on a low-number pitch count. See what the Denver DBs do to respond. Bringing in Smoke at this point of the year will have the same impact as when the Bills picked up James Lofton. Suddenly the 2-D chess match becomes 3-D but only we know it's not 2-D. Get up on Denver 21-0 in the first half, then sit Smoke for the rest of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
