Hasn't Tre White been called "day to day" by McDermott and missed more than one game since that declaration was first made?

 

Different situation...that is getting back into football shape and more importantly GAMEDAY football shape, which should be expected to take longer.

I think thats a gross misinterpretation. He didn't say he threw it blind, he said he thought the DB was "sucked in" and Knox was by himself. It just so happened that the DE obscured the DB. Should he have seen it? Of course.

 

Still I don't agree that the majority of these are bc he is trying to move mountains rather than taking what's given to him. Just a series of poor decisions.

 

 

 

I agree, (despite being a mountain of a man)

 

Myself personally, Josh Allen's mind reads and reacts so fast the poor decisions you speak of were made in a split second that often times relies on target tendencies IMO.

Notice the wording.

 

This isn't sourcing.  It's a guess.  

 

When McDermott held Allen out yesterday he was more than likely to hold Allen out today and probably even tomorrow.  The key will be the injury report tomorrow as that will be the best hint.  We already know McDermott said he's taking things "day-to-day" with Allen and said "we'll see" in reference to Allen playing Sunday.  Allen didn't practice yesterday and isn't practicing today so unless he fell/falls down the stairs or something, he hasn't and won't suffer a setback.  So the question will be how he's looking tomorrow and more importantly how he's feeling Sunday.

 

Allen could still not play Sunday.  I still think he will while also thinking he won't practice tomorrow, either.

This still seems like the most likely and least-opined take to me

My concern with the Browns game is Hunt and Chubb unless we tighten up on execution with the run defense. If it becomes a shoot out a lack of Josh might cost us. And Minnesota have Cook. We shut Henry down brilliantly earlier in the season and have to get back to that.

Chub and Hunt are a worry. Cook has not been his usual self this season. He has been very pedestrian. His yards after contact/carry are right on league average. I’m hopeful we can limit him this Sunday.

He will miss one game if that and that is only because they ARE abundantly cautious.  Half the teams in the NFL would probably start him.

 

The Dolphins sent their franchise QB back out when he had brains leaking out of his ears. The Bills rest guys who brush their teeth too hard and accidentally make their gums bleed.

We don't know that. A sprain can include tearing. We haven't been given this information.

See this is where all the insiders fall short. 

 

They all got word from the national guys about the nature of the injury. 

 

But they have no update past the initial diagnosis that was thrown around. 

 

Like today, is there any swelling? Have they continued to take images, and if so, what have those concluded? 

 

The guy who said it's partially torn, well I assume he still knows Josh's girlfriend, have the texts about his elbow suddenly stopped?

Apparently this is the guy some of you want starting this week:

 

Case looked horrible in preseason. 

 

He looked small, and like a guy that was just happy he thought he'd never have to go in. 

 

Nice job Buffalo Bills media lately trying to pump him up, and talk about his Minnesota days, but he looked horrible the last time he was in.

There's something to be said for ball control, no turnovers, no flag-fest....they don't need Keenum to win the game...just don't Lose it!   No stupid risky throws, (See Wilson, Zach last weekend).

uh, yeah he did....that is what a sprain is, they just don't know to what extent...probably small

Of course they know to what extent-- I am sure he has had every test imaginable, probably even applied leeches to help heal the damn thing.  😮

Nobody wants Keenum to start.  People are just facing the reality that it may have to happen.  We get it.  You think Josh is going to start.  No need to spam the thread with your opinion over and over.  The speculation is pointless.  Either he starts or he rests.  Opinions arent going to change that.  It doesnt matter whose opinion ends up correct. You dont get brownie points for it.
