Week 16: Bills at Pats - NEWS

[Hapless Bills Fan]

I don't know how this will work, but a separate thread for news, tweets, etc was requested.

So we'll try it and see.

[BuffaloBillyG]

It's not a bad idea. The other thread gets bogged down with discussion and arguments so any news/injury list gets somewhat burried. However, seems like they discussion will just travel over here. 

 

Maybe a locked sticky with only the tweets/news/updates for quicker view/read through?

[todd]

Good idea.

[LeviF]

But can we discuss the news here?

 

[Mod Edit: No, the point of the request was to have all the news easily scannable.  If you click on the posting time, you will get a link you can copy and take over to the discussion thread.  It was requested and it seems a reasonable ask, since last Pats week thread got totally infested with discussion of Patriots Teams Past.  Might not work.]

Unfortunately that would lock out people who aren't mods from contributing.  So we have to depend upon self-control

 

Heh.

Sal C article on Bills and Pats covid list additions

.@buffalobills transactions:

-DE A.J. Epenesa has been placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list

-OL Bobby Hart & DE Mike Love have been placed on the Practice Squad/COVID-19 list.

— Buffalo Bills PR (@BuffaloBillsPR) December 20, 2021

Epenesa joins linebacker Tyrel Dodson and offensive linemen Dion Dawkins and Jon Feleiciano on the Reserve/COVID-19 list. Love and Hart are on the practice squad and not on the 53-man active roster, which is why their designation reflects that.

 

Quote

As for the Patriots, they've placed four players on the league's Reserve/COVID-19 list, including wide receiver Kendrick Bourne.

The Patriots have placed WR Kendrick Bourne, LB Harvey Langi, LB Cameron McGrone and LB Ronnie Perkins on the reserve/COVID list.

Thank you! I requested this sort of thing before and it got shot down. I hope this works cause its so much quicker when looking for this stuff when you don't want to read the discussions

Bourne has no symptoms apparently and I bet he tests off the list before Sunday....

New protocol, if vaccinated only tested if showing symptoms.  Unvaccinated, everyday testing.  So if he isnt showing symptoms he than is not vaccinated and out 10 days?

Eagle is one of my fave play by play guys but can’t recall the Bills faring too well in games he’s called. Maybe I’m being too superstitious here, but wouldn’t have hated another broadcast team.

if he has no sx and was VAX then he wouldnt have been tested.

 

so he is either unvax (really doubt it). or he is glossing - has mild sx but hes saying NO sx

the league "randomly tests vaccinated players" from each team. So this could be the case with him, where he is vaxxed and has no symptoms but was randomly tested by the league,

This is a good idea.  Updated information easily accessed.  On the other thread it will get lost.

Who's all on the list now? I need an updated IR list.

[D. L. Hot-Flamethrower]

Any more Pats besides Bourne with Covid?

Well, this was such a big part of the news last game. From The Weather Channel, conditions look good for Sunday:

Listening to WGR this morning and Sal said that yes, it is now expected to be 40% chance of precip. Rain and snow early in the day. Wind still the same I think

Yes, high of 38, 42% chance of rain. Most notably, wind forecast is down to 8 mph. Gotta like that.

This is not terrible news!!

 

I would like some rain, though.  Bill Belichick clearly doesn't trust McCorkle to throw the ball unless it's a perfect weather day.  The more predictable they can be, the better.

 

Thanks for the updates, fellas!
