Tre didnt play last week so he could just come in for Elam. There would be no need for Rhodes. Tre would never play the whole game in any case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Hucklebuck Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 1 minute ago, transplantbillsfan said: Even this "report" is annoying. I still think this was a nerve thing and that's why the gripping the football was an issue. Still not seeing any actual reports on the injury. 100% what I just thought. I just doubt the Bills would risk playing Allen with a tear in his UCL, maybe if it was an almost undetectable nick. But he’s out there with a Grade 1, Grade 2 sprain, I just find that highly unlikely. But they just keep throwing that “sprain” out there with no context.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Sometimes being a great head coach is learning to protect your players from themselves. Josh Allen needs someone to protect his body because he will run through a brick wall if he has to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s practicing in full. This is still news. He’s not a full go if he’s on a pitch count, as you are suggesting. Or they don’t have confidence in him playing a full game. Again, that’s still significant news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the point where if a qb did not play through injuries of this severity they would likely never play lol I don’t believe the bills even confirmed it was an elbow sprain so even that part of it seems like wild speculation Edited November 12, 2022 by Generic_Bills_Fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight Hucklebuck Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 This is a crucial moment for the Bills.

Bubba Gump Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 Anyone who sprains their elbow, then immediately after, chucks the ball 70 yards is not human. Elevating Duke prolly just means they are gonna run a lot more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twitter and Internet doctors have. It could just be a nerve issue and not be a sprain at all.

If there was a detectable laceration to the ligament, I just don’t see the Bills chancing that knowing the severity of a rupture.
