Put us at August 29th and plenty of time for week 1. A lot of long term issues with this Virus, the severity and length is Unique to each person. My wife’s mother died last September from COVID, being perfectly healthy and never been in the hospital ever before this. I was training for the MURPH for a fundraiser with the Navy Seal vets in Florida. Was running 7 min miles with the 20 lbs vest. Got covid pretty bad. A month after being “cleared” I still couldn’t even finish a .25 of a mile, running very slow and no vest. 3 weeks after that I was back in the hospital with inflammation of the heart. This thing is no joke. Could be very possible that he’s out for an extended period of time or could be back soon, just depends on how the virus effected him. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having symptoms could mean a lot of different things. We have some indicators. He's missed two weeks. That's more than most have missed. It's been announced that he's not ready or even close now. Most who've come back from COVID have not had that kind of announcement. That's not proof but it certainly is evidentiary that he had a bit more serious case than many have had. Not that surprising now that the Delta variant is out there now, while last year guys didn't have to deal with that. 6 hours ago, Sundancer said: If he had lingering Covid stuff, McD would not have called him out.. If he came in fat and out of shape, McD calls him out. It's the later. Guaranteed. Guesses and guarantees are not the same thing. As many have said here, not being vaccinated could very easily have McD sending messages. We don't know for sure who's vaccinated and who's not, but the team likely knows. Messages here might make an awful lot of sense even if he came in in great shape before getting sick. Edited August 16, 2021 by Thurman#1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s going to control what he can control and so are we. He's going to continue to work hard to get himself back. This is Week 4 of training camp, so he’s missed a lot of time." "That’s the benefit of Dion not being here and Spencer getting the reps," McDermott said. "Those reps are valuable. I thought Spencer did a really good job in the game the other day." These comments are insensitive from McDermott. The guy just returned from Covid and he's like Dawkins can control what he can control and so can we. He can't help us now but it was good for his backup to get reps. I don't even think Belichick would be that cold. Unless he's disappointed he didn't get vaccinated or whatever. I don't know. But he's obviously telling Dawkins basically the show goes on with or without you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 4 hours ago, MJS said: And none of that necessarily applies to Dawkins. Using three or four examples is far from statistically significant. They are just anecdotes. For every one of those there are others who had mild symptoms and were able to get back to football quickly. Or who were completely asymptomatic. We don't know the situation with Dawkins. McDermott could have been speaking purely from a football and conditioning standpoint, not a health standpoint. He cited examples of a few players who had a tough time coming back. How does that specifically relate to Dawkins? It's a possibility for sure, but nobody knows. Everyone is guessing. Correct. It's a possibility. It's not known. We don't even know when exactly Dawkins tested positive, just that he was placed on the list when the list started, at the beginning of camp. The point is, these lasting issues do occur sometimes, even for guys who weren't that sick. And even if he doesn't have an issue he's been unavailable for almost 3 weeks and now longer while he conditions. 3 weeks vs. 5 days is a huge concern, especially with key Bills players making a public issue of being unvaccinated. It's enough to make a coach pull his hair. (Oh...Wait) I, like you (because you're here), signed on to the agreement to not talk Covid-19 on the main board, so per that agreement Football/Sport relevant anecdotes is what we're going to get. Put down the statistically significant and step away; given the small number of players who did get Covid last season and given their right to medical privacy, anecdotes from players who personally chose to share medical information is what we have. Doesn't mean it's smart to discount or ignore it, especially when there may be *ahem* studies of statistically significant numbers out there saying this isn't some fluke. 15 minutes ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: Probably because it was OTA.

That kind of thing has certainly happened a lot in the NFL and also in Buffalo in the old days. Bruce Smith, certainly, but many others. That said, I think the answer is a clear "no." Dawkins bought into the process as has this team, really, and you can't improve every day when you're not practicing. He's seen in his own career what happens when he doesn't go all in, he saw that during his second year and publicly owned up to it and committed to changing. He's not breaking any rules, but that's not the issue. The issue is whether he's giving it all and whether he believes that's what he needs and wants to do. Bruce's teammates knew he was dogging it. They just didn't care. Today's Bills are behind a different philosophy, and today's training camp isn't comparable to the old days of two-a-days and no rules on padded practices and so on. This group would know or very clearly suspect what Dawkins was doing. This locker room would not accept that kind of behavior the way they did in the old days, as it would essentially mean, "Yeah, you guys need to improve 1% every day, but me, I'm good. I'm there." It's not the way this team rides. Edited August 16, 2021 by Thurman#1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarleyNY Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) 13 hours ago, Hapless Bills Fan said: That's not long-haul and not going to explain the diff. here, But yes, he probably does have some lingering effects. For example Myles Garrett said he had lasting pulmonary symptoms and needed to work with a pulmonologist and was still getting out of breath for months; Von Miller (who caught during off-season) said it took him a while to get his conditioning back and was rough for a while. Dawson Knox said he was really winded the first week+ or so back. Some top athletes (Olympic rowers) who had Covid said it dropped them back to the ergometer level of a talented HS student for about a month. Not all that many NFL players had Covid during the season. The NFL did a really good job last year. And of course if recovery takes a while during the off-season, we don't know. Covid only knocked Garrett out of action for two games, but he looked like a shell of himself the rest the season. As mentioned above it took him a whole offseason with specialists and a ton of hard work to get himself all the way back to where he was pre-Covid. Obviously we don’t know if Dawkins is in a similar situation or not, but it’s my concern that he is. And reading what McDermott said about where he is right now does not alleviate any of that concern. Edited August 16, 2021 by BarleyNY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxcar Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 16 hours ago, GunnerBill said: Hmm. Yea I wonder if this "he is a long way away" is partly McDermott sending a message to the team to say if you are unvacced and you get it then you do not gey your spot back automatically. You have to earn it back. Am I mad to think that is what could be behind this? You sure mined a lot out of a small quote. I'm pretty sure Dion has his spot secured. I'm also pretty sure that even vaccinated people can have bad bouts of Covid, so leaping to that is divisive and unhelpful. It would be better if people said "I don't know what the deal is" because they don't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is, it sounds as if he's at least somewhat in McDermott's doghouse and will have to endure some hard coaching to get out. The Bills, and Josh Allen need him to be solid this season.

In context to the team, it may not be life threatening for 99.999999% of NFL athletes, but it sure can jack up your season. If anybody is on the fence about the vax, I’m sure Dion’s condition will be used an example to push them to get it. NFL careers are short, flirting with fire is probably not worth it. Guys will have weigh the options and decide what is right for them. I just hope everyone stays healthy and is able to perform at their best, for themselves and the team’s sake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
