Big Turk Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 24 minutes ago, Beck Water said: Questions: -Why wouldn't they just have Crowder on IR already? Is there some procedural or competitive reason? -Does Dawson Knox have any working body parts? He's gone from foot (after Titans) to Back/Hip (after Miami) to foot/hamstring (today's DNP) -We need healthy players, so why TF did we sign an OLman who immediately went on injury report with a foot injury? -(or for that matter a DB who immediately went on Practice Squad IR) -With Edmunds listed as a hamstring injury, does that mean the "Edmunds sucks, anyone could do better" crowd gonna get their wish to test that next Sunday, and perhaps more? IIRC Edmunds missed 2 games with a hammy last season. When did Edmunds injure his hamstring? He was walking around fine after the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Matter_What Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 1 hour ago, Big Turk said: Perhaps a situation where resting it isn't going to make it appreciably better? Or because they expect the bye week to handle that for them? Ok, maybe you're right. I am not an expert, I just would be surprised if there wasn't difference in healing whne you play vs rest. 1 hour ago, eball said: What in the world makes you think you know more than the Bills' training staff who have been universally praised in league circles for how they manage and take care of their players? No need to be so offensive I probably just used a little strong words, I just wanted to say that it seems weird to me that he seems to be playing hurt. Do they know better than me? Hell yes. Are they capable of making bad decisions sometimes? I guess so. Again, they know better, it just feels strange to me. 1 hour ago, uninja said: Because Davis is our best blocking WR by a country mile and with Kumerow down there isn't anyone on the roster with anything close to his skillset. If rest isn't going to heal the ankle any more than it already is and if he can operate at 50-70% and execute the blocks he needs as part of the gameplan he's gonna be out there. I am not arguing that he on one leg is still better than Hodgins or so. For me it is just a question of what is better for Davis longterm. You are already second poster who mentions that rest could possibly not being that helpful. That is really something new to me (no sarcasm). If that is true in Davis case, I rest my case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, you made a definitive statement that "they are hurting the team." I understand you probably didn't mean that, but in this forum it's hard to read between the lines. I'm going to err on the side of believing this coaching/training staff will not put their players in a position of harm. We're not the goddamned Dolphins.

That is really something new to me (no sarcasm). If that is true in Davis case, I rest my case I think if we had an alternative queued up, like Sanders or even Kumerow, he'd sit. Working through injury is an interesting thing. The modern take is if you're injured, take time off/rest. But there are cases of endurance runners and thru hikers proceeding through injuries where rest was advised, and eventually healing and getting stronger. So the human body has more capability to be active through injury than we think and it may even be beneficial in some cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans can be homers. Plus it’s the nfl and we lost to Jacksonville last year so hopefully the team is preparing for a dogfight. There seems to be confusion between thinking you have a shot and thinking it is likely that you will win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pray Edmunds is back for that game. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
