Patriots LT Isaiah Wynn is OUT vs Bills


Recommended Posts

Pats fans are saying it's addition by subtraction. I guess he allowed more sacks than the other linemen.

 

Doubt it. They loved Wynn last year.  That was probably just the spot Jones went to with his 2-step pocket "scramble."

 

Mills being out is pretty big, too. Their secondary ain't deep.  After all of this hand-wringing, it would be cool if it was a Bills blowout by halftime & we could get Trubisky some work.

Wynn is a big time loss but would still be concerned with the Pats ability to run the ball and Belichik knows the best strategy to win this game keep Allen and the Bills offense off the field with long sustained drives similar to to the first matchup.

 

You mean like the game in Cheaterland.  You know, the one without 50 MPH winds?  LOL!

Brilliant logic.  How bad are the other guys that, despite allowing more sacks than the other linemen, he was still starting?

Agree. Whoever they replace him with won't matter because their O line is allowed to hold D linemen anyway.

 

Whoever replaces Mills is gonna get smoked like a pack of Kools.

 

This is what concerns me.  That the zebras will try and even things up by allowing them to hold Jerry even more than usual, if that's even possible.

From a Pats reporter earlier in the week.

 

@ZackCoxNESN

Jalen Mills has allowed 20 or fewer receiving yards in eight of the Patriots' last nine games, per

@PFF

. He's been very solid. Not good to be shorthanded at corner vs. BUF, too. Bills have a lot of WR talent and like to spread it out.

The one that saw a 40mph wind blow a sure touchdown out of Diggs' hands, that strategy?  I'll take it.

Patriots left tackle Isaiah Wynn has been downgraded to out vs the Bills. He injured his knee and ankle last week vs the Dolphins. Justin Herron will be his replacement.

 

The Patriots listed 13 players as questionable in order to keep the Bills guessing, but most if not all of the others will be active on Saturday. All 12 other players listed as questionable made the trip to Buffalo.

 

UPDATE: CB Jalen Mills may also out pending test results (covid list)

Herron? Onwenu usually bounces to the tackle and Herron goes to guard.. that’s actually been a decent O line.. Wynn out just means we won’t get a holding call after a huge gain… lol…

So then, nothing will change...

Their line will still be good. Belichick will have a good scheme. If the oline gives Josh time he will pick them apart, then Belichick will start blitzing. It will be about in game adjustments. This game has always been about the Bills not beating themselves, the Pats can’t beat the Bills if the Bills play a clean game.

Pats are looking really banged up going into this game. Wynn a key O-line player, Barmore a big time impactful rookie starting at DT, Lawrence Guy the other DT, and  Hightower are all hurt and starting Corner Mills is on the Covid list as is his backup. That's a key O-line player and a lot of their defense that is out. Including players like Barmore, Guy and Hightower that bring a lot of physicality to the team. Although the weather makes me nervous for this game (bad weather always benefits an underdog) the injuries to a lot of their players that bring a lot of physicality are helping to hopefully limit their advantage controlling the line of scrimmage.

Addition by subtraction for the Pats. Trent at LT, Owenwu at RT.

 

This puts Owenwu in the starting lineup. He was their 6th OL before this news, but now he's starting. This makes the Pats better.

 

I thought Belichick was supposed to be this great coach?

 

He didn't know that when they were all healthy?

Wynn was a 1st round pick.

 

saving optimal starting 5 for a 1 game playoff scenario.

 

They didn't need it to win 10 games.

 

Belichick playing chess while...

 

Pats are going to win this game.

 

It's hard to think of a coach in any sport who is less likely to continue with a worse line-up simply because he felt like he had to play a 1st rounder.

 

Belichick is getting old. Soon, he'll be playing shuffleboard while the rest of the league is playing football.

Playing an inferior player all season, especially after starting 2-4, in anticipation of a playoff game?  You can't write that stuff any better. :lol:

Trent Brown said he’s not been told anything about playing LT and hasn’t practiced there since OTAs

Brady is no longer. It's over.

 

I look forward to your next post after the Bills kick the **** out of the Pats.
