We will shut it down with zero threat on the outside. No Hill and Waddle to worry about. I’m definitely a bit worried about Fields… mostly because we’ve never faced him, I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those can be a lot harder to try to compensate for. At any rate - I just hope the Bills commit to making hard hits and low tackles on runners in this cold. If they do I think they'll win. They are playing a 3 win football team...they should win regardless of weather. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because they have a big matchup next week doesn’t mean they want to play down to the Bears level. Now that weather is potentially going to test what running game we have because passing down the field is challenging. Josh will find a way. I remember a time long long ago. We were 3-1, just coming off an emotional road win against a good conference rival. We had the lowly Steelers coming to town starting a rookie QB for his first NFL start. The next week we had a marquee matchup against the KC Chiefs on the road, in a battle that could decide the one-seed for the playoffs. Classic chance to overlook the Steelers. The result: 38-3 drubbing where Allen threw for 350 yards in the first half and was out for most of the 4th quarter. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though, Van Roten is effectively our 3rd string center so I doubt he gets a lot of practice time with Josh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beck Water Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) Did we see this? Ed Oliver and Jordan Phillips both questionable - YIKES. Our DL is a mess. Hopefully 1 of the 2 can go, but I think we're gonna need an elevation to the 53 man roster (maybe 2) in addition to 2 practice squad call-ups. For those scoring at home, as best as I can figure: -Mike Love has had 1 of 3 practice squad call-ups -Brandin Bryant has had 1 of 3 practice squad call-ups. He has played in 4 games, but was signed to the active roster from 9/24 to 10/8 when he played in the 1st MIA and BAL games, again signed to the active roster 10/11 - 11/1 (no games), and a third signing from 12/13-12/19 for the 2nd MIA game. -John Brown and Cole Beasley have both used 1 of 3 practice squad call-ups Not sure who we bring up for another DT if both Ed and Phillps can't go.

It is scheduled to land flights about as rapidly as they can land during a normal day. When the weather doesn't allow visual approach conditions, the capacity plummets and the flight cancellations/delays mount high. But, if the Bills charter flight is booked as a Delta flight, which @T&C's link implies, it might not have a scheduled landing slot at Midway so I guess that explains it. If the Bills are trying to land at O'Hare and bus to a downtown hotel, they not getting to their hotel until Late, Late, Late because traffic is going to be snarled like a 3 yr old left to brush her own hair.
