Me too. May be limited reps with AJ taking some of them. He is running around working with trainers now. As long as he doesn't have a setback during the week, he'll be fine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerome007 Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Milano is a beast and has been awesome so far. At least Klein blitzes very well too, and can stop the run. He won't be covering Kelce anytime soon though.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Unless they are being ultra cautious, Milano not practicing again today would indicate he's probably out this week against the Chiefs. But at the end of the day if we do win this game it will be more about Allen and the offense and I think Klein is capable and certainly a better pass rusher which helps.

johnnychemo Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 There's a whole lot of games left after Sunday, if he doesn't go it may be a matter of making sure he's healthy for the long haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) Hamstring injuries tend to take time to heal and if it was bad enough to take him out of the game, I would expect it would take at least a couple weeks to fully heal. It's a long season and hammy injuries can easily become more severe if a player is rushed back on the field. No practice for Milano today likely means he won't suit up on Sunday unless he has a miraculous recovery. I think Andre Smith and Klein will split reps with Edmunds covering Kelce for the majority of the game. We also need Taron Johnson back to have a chance at keeping the Chiefs' offense in check.

TheFunPolice Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 (edited) Honestly, I would rather see Milano rest up and come back 100% for the stretch run, rather than reinjure himself and be hobbled for most of the season. We all want this game, but it's still just a week 5 game in October. Last year, the Saints beat the Bucs twice, fairly handily each time. Nobody really cares, because the Bucs beat them in the playoffs in the game that really mattered and went on to win the Super Bowl. I'm not saying this game doesn't matter, because it IS huge and exciting, but these teams will likely meet again in January. I want a 100% Milano in those games.

I think this game has a personal element to it that people really want to win. Yeah, the chefs are a team that record could matter when all is said and done, but frankly I would much rather have Milano for as many games as possible at full capacity than for this game specifically. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Kinda weird, last season I thought we should sit Milano for the Rams game since it wasn't as critical a game and it would give him time to heal—the overwhelming response here was that every game is important and he should play if there was any chance he could go. No sitting and resting. Seems the opposite this year. Huge game with playoff seeding implications, but now people think he should rest? Why were people less concerned last year about keeping Milano healthy for the long term? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I expect Neal or Johnson to play in place of Milano in certain sets. With more run heavy personnel I expect Tyler.

Dr.Mantis_Toboggan Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I like the idea of healthy combination of Klein, Dodson, and/or Smith rather than a gimpy Milano who is risking more serious injury, still early in the season. I trust McDermott and Frazier will be able to alternate between those 3 situationally to fill in for Milano sufficiently. Plus Edmunds will have to step up in coverage vs Kelce and earn that extension. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back2Buff Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 This is exactly why someone should have been drafted to replace Milano, something a lot of people said before he re-signed in Buffalo. The guy continues to constantly get hurt. Now we can go all year with an excuse for him, even when he comes back in 2 or so weeks. Another terrible contract, they starting to add up. Rinse and repeat every year with Milano. It's comical at this point, like Will Fuller being out again. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least, I hope they've learned their lesson that they have to rework the D slightly when Klein is playing and not just try to plug Klein in for Milano in "next man up" fashion. They seemed to as last season went on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
