I’m a 2x cancer survivor, have 2x titanium hips, half a stomach and 3 stents in my arteries. I was a NCAA division 1 athlete back in the early 70s (hockey). Yeah, it’s tough as hell to realize that all your hard work and endless hours of practice and training are gone and you’re back to square one. You know, I didn’t have what it takes to make it to the next level. Then I had to face up to the reality that I had to get a real job like everyone else. It sucks and it plays games with the head. Here, we are talking about a guy who rose above that. Sometimes even today it makes me envious. However, if you have everything it takes to do it once, you can do it again. You suck it up, take the bitter pill and rise up again. I’ve been there a few times and expect nothing less from any elite athlete. In the case of Tre White, he is a lot more accomplished than I ever was. He certainly has a lot more money and accolades than I ever had. He needs to get back to work, get healthy and be the best version of himself. Failure is simply not an option. Then you should know better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you’re good with that with the way some of our players are laying it on the line? Tommy Doyle finished the Miami game with a torn ACL. Why? Because the team NEEDED him. He's not ready yet. I know you didn't ask me, but yes, I'm good with it. Good for Doyle. We lost that game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the hell is wrong with the guy? He had what looked to be your typical ACL injury a year ago. It sounded like he was making a great recovery all offseason, and into training camp. And here we are over halfway thru the 2022 season approaching week 12 and he isn't playing, and it doesn't sound like he will be anytime soon. Heck do you all remember Willis McGhahee and his devastating knee injury? He missed the next season of 2003 after we drafted him. (his injury was around New Years 2003 so there was no way he was going to play in the 2003 season.) But was ready to roll by 2004. And that was almost two decades ago. And Willis' injury was much worse then Tre's. Usually we hear players wanting to get back to playing as quickly as possible. This seems completely opposite. If the Bills medical staff has cleared Tre to play, he needs to get his ass out on the field. Its that simple. You are played to play football. Now go do it.

Allen2Moulds Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 As much as I love Tre as a player, and everything that is said about him as a person. I think it's perfectly fair for fans to feel a little frustrated at this time. I don't understand why people are getting defensive about it. ACL recovery time for football players is typically 9-12 months. We are technically still in that window for another 3 days, but I don't think many of us expect him to play this week. If we were only a few days, or even a week or 2 from when he was cleared, it would be one thing, but we are now about a month past that point. Without saying it, the coaches are also wondering. Love him or hate him, he gets paid a lot of money to figure this kind of thing out, is the bottom line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something is up with Tre. He is not ready or mentally weak. I’m thinking he is weak especially with all the resources he has and how fast other players come back from similar injures. Sad. Time to move on and hopefully he makes it by the playoffs. Edited November 22, 2022 by wppete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those unfamiliar with the English language, I'll explain: I was criticizing the OP for his comments about the money as if it was HIS money, and "Is that you, Terry?" means that Terry (Pegula, he's the owner of the Bills and pays the salaries) might be the one with a right to complain about this, but certainly nobody else including the OP.
