White out again.  At this point not sure why they didn't just IR him.  Wasting a roster spot

 

I guess that unlike everyone else on the roster, Tre has to be 10000000% ready before he can go.

Meanwhile, Poyer is out here with a bionic arm brace and driving across the country with a lacerated lung or whatever to play. I'm getting really tired of this.

Why is everyone so bitter about Tre? If he's not ready to go, he's not ready. Don't you guys think if he was ready to play they would be happy to get an All Pro back into their depleted secondary?

 

I'm assuming the problem is...that he's not ready to play.

Agree, nobody knows what is going on.  

 

Everyone just assumes he should be, bc we see other guys come back in a shorter window.  But we know Tre was really down after injury, and it might have slowed his initial rehab.

 

No way he was playing 2 games in a 5 day span. 

 

It will be good to get him back for New England and have a month+ of games to get ready for playoffs.  As of now, a healthy Dane/Elam/Benford is going to have to be good enough.  We need our offense to stop turning over the ball and get back to taking care of business, and the dline to generate pressure with 4.

It's not a rehab issue. He's been healthy and practicing in full for weeks. 

 

But your point is valid. December and January is when we will need him.

Agree he's been practicing in full.  But he could still be "feeling" not 100%, or it could be mental (like many are implying).  Many players have said they don't feel truly 100%, until 12-18 months after surgery.  

 

Like Coach said, it's go time soon.  Silver lining is that Benford and Elam have got great learning experience/PT this season, and it will payoff at some point for us in the future.

The mental part can be a real challenge to overcome...they are afraid to do certain movements at full speed that they need to for fear of injuring the leg again or because it "doesn't feel quite right" even though there is no real chance for any structural damage to occur.

Right, that's what I was implying, that it's not a physical issue

ACL is a very serious injury.  A lot of guys never recover from it.  Everyone is assuming Odell Beckham, who’s older than Tre and was injured 3 months later, will just pick up where he left off next month.  Highly unlikely.  That’s why I would not have been down with drafting Jamison Williams in the first round…he’s still not playing either.

People are deep in their feelings about this and not thinking rationally

How does Tre go from being a game time decision a few weeks ago and having a vigorous workout pregame to being declared out on a Friday?
 

Could the Detroit slit turf play a factor here?  If not, what is going on there

 

Things change, and not all progress is linear.

This week we should find out if the Bills offense Can get back on track? They are playing a Cleveland defense that isn't very good. Hill and Waddle were kept in check for the most part. Looks like they made an effort to contain them. (I suspect they will do the same to Diggs.) As a result, the Dolphins were able to run the ball very effectively. Can The Bills do the same thing? Will they try to run consistently? 

 

Defensively, it goes without saying Cleveland will run the ball and run some more. Then they will take their shots and try to make a few key 3rd down passes. Lately, QBs even mediocre ones have been successful in 3rd and longs. Can The Bills contain that Cleveland awesome running attack? This defense with its injuries has serious limitations. 

 

I don't see a blowout here. I just think the Bills have too many injuries, are playing poorly, now out of their routine, lost home field advantage, Allen looks like he did when he first came into the league, and the coaching is sub par. This is a get right game but it sure doesn't look easy.

Some Tweets from Bills players wading in the snow are starting to show up and it doesn't look good.  These guys who live in the Southtowns near the stadium are snowed in  (34+ inches and counting).   I have no idea how they will get to the airport if they can't get out of their own driveways.
