Quick passing underneath game. For o-line and if they play tampa 2 (thinking they are going too). Makes sense. Frank Reich is a much smarter coach than the Jets.

 

Agreed, quick passes and screens. Keep Breida in for those.

I'll be shocked if Doyle plays.  He doesn't look anywhere near ready to play.

Did you watch Doyle’s rep from the Jets game.  He got destroyed easily by Shaq Lawson who was quiet the rest of the game.

It’s ALL about getting vaxxed . If he’s vaxxed and has two neg tests, and he plays against the Colts.
Un vaxxed, he sits for two games..

 

 

 

???

 

He could be vaxed and really have covid?  Your money is on a false positive.

We have known since before the season started that the Bills were more likely to lose players to covid protocols. We are averaging about one person per week over the last month. Good chance it will affect us in the playoffs too if we're being realistic. Depressing.

I don’t think they can win this game without Brown at RT.  Look how badly they struggled against Jacksonville, a much worse defense and a way easier defensive front. 

LOL really.  The one and only reason the Bills lost was Spencer Brown?  How did they win games earlier in the season when Brown was not playing?

Other teams lose key lineman and don't absolutely fall apart.  

 

Looking forward to seeing this team show that the Offense has figured out how to adjust and we aren't completely dependent on a Rookie RT. 

 

I mean, the Titans had Bobby Hart starting for them in a game where they destroyed the Rams..  If Daboll is HC material, he should be able to scheme around this.

It's absolutely ridiculous that a rookie third rounder is so important to our offense.

It is.  That’s the situation we’re in.  Neglect the IOL and hope that the defense can bail us out.  That’s the plan this week. Sure hope Buckners injuries are serious enough where he isn’t close to 💯

Josh allen was good enough to overcome the piss poor OL.  He wasn’t vs the jags.

Ridiculous maybe, but he's moved on from the third round project status that he arrived with.  He's differentiated himself quite a bit from that half way through the season.  If we have any doubt about that, where do you think he would be drafted in a redraft now?  I believe that, after mid season review, he is a 1st rounder for sure.  Props to Beane for getting him where he did and providing support to develop quickly.

It sucks, for sure.

 

But if our entire outlook hinges on a rookie 3rd round pick then we aren't the team we need to be to be serious Super Bowl contenders.  

We are serious contenders…..when our OL is at its best.

A good team doesn't collapse because one rookie RT doesn't start.  If we aren't good enough to overcome a rookie RT loss, then this team is really in trouble.

Some of you are way too dramatic imo. It's not the end of the world. Just because the line was horrible against Jags without him it doesn't mean that happens again.

 

Not a good news though. Especially if it means that he is out on Thanksgiving too and especially if he actually has Covid which can influence him when he returns.

Man I sure hope he can be cleared to play by Sunday. Bills need him desperately.

If he’s vaccinated he has a chance. If not, unfortunately we know for sure he’s out for (at least) the next 2 games (10 days from today, minimum).

Yeah you’re right.  It’s not a given of course,  I just have nightmares from the game in Jacksonville and knowing the type of players that Paye and Buckner are, it doesn’t make me feel so good about the OL.

he's the starting RT...doesn't matter if it's a rookie or 10 year guy.

You say collapse like we walk in every week Kings of the Castle and easily crush every team. We've done it a couple times, but we also just lost to the Jags. Who kows which Bills team shows up week to week. It's any given Sunday in this league, and having your starting RT out hurts any team.

Truth.  He's not just a rookie, and honestly he's not just a starter... he might be our best OL.  He's certainly our most physical.  

 

That said, a Championship caliber team figures out how to overcome this.

Please understand that being vaccinated does not make you immune, it only avoids greater risks if you get infected, so to speak, it is a preventive vaccine, not a cure.

 

 

but it makes a bigger difference if you're an NFL player
