SCBills Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) Better to know now what this Offense looks like without one of the two main outside WR’s than late in the season. Sounds like Davis will be fine long term, but likely isn’t playing on MNF. Very interested to see how they respond to the biggest off-season criticism of their roster building (outside WR depth). As someone who has been critical of the lack of depth, I’m expecting to be proven wrong and the offense will still be explosive and dynamic. …. that said, I’d rather it not be due to them overworking Diggs.

Maybe look at a wr on the teams playing the jests or patsies this week. I wont lose him. Crowder is a fa and i can drop my extra kicker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but seriously, that’s a big loss for our offense if he can’t go on Monday. I think it is more an opportunity for the 3-7 receivers to show up. Hoping very much Shakir gets some reps if Gabe needs a rest day, and hope he is getting them in practice already with 1st's 1 minute ago, 3rdand12 said: I think it is more an opportunity for the 3-7 receivers to show up.

YoloinOhio Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 He missed the 2nd pats game last year. They had sanders, but were also missing Beasley. I believe they called up Hodgins but not sure how much he actually played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aurelius Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 No big deal. Get Shakir out there, keep Cook active to get into open field. We have lots of options with Diggs, McKenzie, Crowder, Shakir etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtVandalay Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 9 hours ago, Big Blitz said: He's also questionable I know but he's been practicing. Point being, I'd rather stay him if he's active than Crowder or McKenzie. Outside of Diggs, Bills receivers are to predict who will get the ball, it will be spread around. I'd expect a reliable workload from Phillips, especially since the Titans will be playing from behind and throwing alot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The final inactives are not out yet, but yes, the three probably will not play. We know Oliver is out for sure. we are deep on the d line and WR so we should be ok. Biggie will probably bounce inside alternating with Phillips, but not sure who will alternate with Jones. Shaq will most likely be activated who is stout against the run. As far as WR, probably a little Shakir, and Kumerow. Knox should get mire targets along with Crowder and McKenzie as Diggs will be double teamed.

Cheektowaga Chad Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 If Davis is out, I expect Knox's targets to increase A sleeper that could have a big game in my opinion if Davis is out is Q. Morris, bigger target played wr in college could replace some of what Davis brings in more situational football 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends upon severity. 2 weeks (Grade I) to 12 weeks (Grade III). Maybe cut that in half for a pro athlete who has unlimited access to the best treatment. Just the swelling after a sprain can last 48 hrs though hopefully Gabe and the training staff are doing everything to minimize that On 9/18/2022 at 3:41 AM, GunnerBill said: It will be a Kumerow / McKenzie / Shakir / Knox jobshare wide based on what they showed us in pre-season game 2 and week 1. My guess is that break down something like: Kumerow 40% McKenzie 25% Shakir 25% Knox 10% That breakdown would surprise me greatly.

CaliBills Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Honestly, injuries happen. These games where we have a few injuries in positions that are not our top players, will allow the depth to come through and perform. Looking forward to the test and seeing others step up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
