I've noticed this trend in your posting. Wow. The majority disagreeing with an opinion does not mean it is a bad opinion. That’s hilarious that you actually believe that. History is littered with the majority having the wrong idea. From the expanding earth theory which the majority espoused including Darwin. To everyone believing the earth was flat. To phrenology. To my namesakes static universe. I have no care for being popular or having a post with lots of “likes”. I care about seeking out truth, whether it’s positive, negative, or otherwise. That being said, I don’t want to disrespect this forum by continuing an argument of attrition that isn’t on topic. So again, you may have the last word. .

zow2 Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Gabe played at Miami and shouldn’t have imo. I said that prior to the game, he looked gimpy in practice and could only run straight. Stopping and cutting looked hard. Clearly he couldn’t get separation yesterday. Shouldn’t have been active. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're reaching so hard you're looking into scientific history to prove you're not wrong. I'll guess I'll start a thread that Tremaine Edmunds is the best linebacker in all the NFL and the last 3 years. Everyone will disagree with that but I guess that means it's not a bad opinion? You are the author, we are the audience and your opinions are criticized. In this thread, you don't know the extent of any of the injuries and you speculate to the negative. You aren't seeking the truth, you are passively aggressively looking to find the negative in the Bills. You bump a two week old Dawson Knox thread to indicate again his contract sucks, you criticize Elam anytime you can and anything negative with our coaching staff or FO.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I think they do a good job at that. It is a long season. I know it was a divisional game, but I would have been ok with the Bills playing backups the entire game yesterday knowing what I know today about the heat and conditions on the field. I may have pulled a Gregg Popovich with a lot of DNP-Rest. League wouldn't like it, but oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 I think to a certain degree, but Gabe Davis played yesterday and is clearly still injured and probably shouldn't have been out there. This coaching staff is going to have a big challenge this year if the injury issues don't slow down soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SCBills Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 Dolphins are trying to change the culture and make the Playoffs. Bills are a Super Bowl contender with the Super Bowl as the only goal. I have zero issues with our injury approach, and yes.. to answer.. we are very conservative with injuries.

RocCityRoller Posted September 26, 2022 Share Posted September 26, 2022 For those arguing Buffalo is being too conservative, Gabe Davis was out there trying to tough it out, and he was not effective. Buffalo has been very fortunate to be relatively healthy the past 3 or so seasons. Per Football Outsiders in 2020 Buffalo only missed 43.1 games due to non COVID related precautions. That was 4th fewest in the league. Even taking in COVID related missed games it was 63.1 which was 9th fewest. We are seeing a regression to the mean. In plain speak the law of averages is catching up with Buffalo, unfortunately all at once. Baltimore who had also been fortunate with injuries went through the injury bug last season. Maybe Buffalo is a bit conservative with injuries. They aren't the only team to do so if true. Green Bay is very conservative with injuries in general. It means they want guys to play when they are 100% or close to it. This is the opposite of the Jets who had a mini scandal prior to Saleh and the current staff. The Jets were pushing injured guys to play. The way teams deal with players who are injured has to be a factor in how free agents rate teams they want to sign with. Established teams with a culture of winning find new ways to win and stay competitive. Green Bay won with a running game in week 1, and defense yesterday. Baltimore stayed competitive all season last year and almost made the playoffs. Injuries are piling up all over the league. The Chargers just lost their starting LT (torn biceps) on top of Herbert breaking rib cartilage. This is shaping up to be a season of NFL attrition. Maybe there is too little pre-season, maybe the open style of play is leading to more injuries. Hard to tell. It is going to be a bumpy ride this season. Let's see how Buffalo manages the adversity. It will show strengths or weaknesses in coaching and the front office. Go Bills! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to add that "being healthy enough to play NFL football" has got to be vastly different medically than what we joe blow fans think may or may not be adequate for ourselves. The Bills cannot risk reaggravating a previous injury by bringing a guy back too soon. We have a world class facility doing state of the art scientifically and medically available procedures/protocls to heal these men asap/ Our limited experience and knowledge is so lacking that to compare it to an NFL program is Ri-dic-ulous m 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
