BearNorth Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I still think Smoke if out of the protocol, should play at least a couple of series with the ones, since he hasn't played in a bit. Be good for the coaches to know if he is full go at game speed. He changes the defense when he's at top end speed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Process Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Anyone have any examples of someone being labeled week to week and not missing multiple games? Seems like that is always the case. Need a reason to be optimistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously we will have to wait for next Wednesday now Beasley will sit/rest this week, and I think many other 1s will do the same thing, especially with Pittsburgh standing down as well. They will try to move heaven and earth to get him in there for the first playoff game. This could be a really boring type of game (Miami), but that's OK. The hype and build-up leading to our first playoff game, whoever it is against, is going to be off the chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_In_NH Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I can’t see him playing this week based on the week to week thing when you consider the game is not that important. So he falls just short of 1000 yards which kinda sucks for him but for the team what is important is he can play that WC game. Hopefully he is healthy by then.

CLTbills Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I mean I don’t love “week to week” because that’s worse than “day to day.” Usually when McDermott says “week to week” that’s a few weeks down. Positive news is they must think it’s something where he could still be available in a few weeks, or else they’d have just moved him to IR considering the Super Bowl is in what, five weeks?

Day to day usually means they are likely to only be out a week at most- maybe 2 in certain circumstances... However, knowing how tough as nails Beasley is, I’m sure he will try to be ready by playoffs, but he might only be 50-75%...

LabattBlue Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Not sure if it was McD's or Daboll's call to send him out there, but for all you "process" lovers, the process failed them. I just hope he is ready in two weeks for the start of the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in a game 11-12 days after a week-to-week designation? That would be unprecedented as far as I can recall. You have to allow for practice time as well. This is bad news. Can't cut it any other way. We can hope to get him back at some point later in the playoffs (maybe AFCCG?) if we're able to advance without him. I see a lot of people on here and Twitter thinking, "Oh week to week? Ok great too bad he can't get 1,000 yards but at least he'll be back for playoff game!" Evidently, not familiar with week-to-week designations. Edited December 29, 2020 by Giuseppe Tognarelli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the fact that McDermott called it a leg injury (and not a knee) and the video looks like his heel got stepped on, I’d say it’s a 2-3 week foot sprain.

SCBills Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 People are forgetting how good Brown is. Certainly not ideal, but Davis stays as the #3 and, outside of the Ravens, nobody has a CB1 & CB2 that can match up with Diggs and Brown. If teams play high safety over Brown and put their #1 on Diggs, it’s going to be time for Davis to shed the rookie label and Knox to prove he’s the future at TE here. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_In_NH Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 I think this will help make McD's decision on how to handle next week. Allen, Diggs, Tre, and maybe a couple others should not play. Others should play less than typical. The Steelers are likely to lose so the Bills should get the #2. Get/stay healthy and make a run at the SB.

I’d imagine that the Colts would be livid about missing the playoffs because the #2 & #3 seeded teams treated week 17 as a bye week or preseason game.
