Doc Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I heard they had to amputate. The horror! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Unfortunately some guys can't stay healthy. I had Phillips on the outside looking in and still feel that way despite a decent showing so far in camp/preseason before the injury. Still think that Beane is going to look to make some power moves soon and get some more help at DB, OT and DT is still a sneaky need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed - although Sal did say when McD talked about the injuries he put Harrison into a 1-2 week timeframe - suggesting he should be available come week 1. He also did say he was still waiting for some info from trainers, but Sal basically made it sound like he will miss this PS game and should be ready to go for Pittsburgh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Bills can live with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Keep him on the roster and make him inactive until he's healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jokeman Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I saw the Bears cut Mike Pennel who could be a good backup NT, anyone think we should give him a look? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Back2Buff Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Seeing people say Harrison should be cut makes my head hurt. He is the best 1 T we have. The guy put on some serious girth and looked great in preseason. He would have overtaken Star as the starter. Also, Zimmer is a PS, reserve player at best. Harrison is 10x the player Zimmer is.

They also play different positions so to compare them is like comparing Ted Washington to John Randle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloRebound Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 If he’s ready to go for week 1, no way he gets cut especially given the Bills other 2 options at 1 Tech are unvaccinated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If youre measuring impact to the team youre gonna need to show me the 10 plays where harrison phillips saves us from an embarrassing loss to the Pats by punching the ball out of Cams hands. I have both making the team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 4: Ed, Star, Zimmer, Harry. Do you have less? Do you have Butler on the team? I would also note that Zimmer got a lot of snaps last year with Harry on the team. So unless you think Star makes all the difference (and Butler is better than Zimmer) than I'm not sure how reconcile that fact.

I want to see if Basham takes more snaps at DT in the GB game too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillips is a feel-good story to Kyle Williams fans, only he’s no Kyle Williams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
