It's one thing to be able to run and even do a ladder agility drill. It's another thing to have the muscle built back up to where he can cut and stop without possible re-injury It's possible in theory but, at the time he was first injured there were some articles about similar injuries where the WR came back quickly and was not able to be as effective 37 minutes ago, RiotAct said: But Hyde is a longshot given the nature of his injury. I would love to see it, but he’s definitely not going to be rushed back since Hamlin has been playing pretty well back there with Po. Pretty sure I read all about how Hamlin totally sucks and is a liability, elsewhere on this site 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably have allowed more deep passes this year than the last 3 years combined. I haven't seen anything but poor play from Hamlin - clueless in coverage and consistently taking the wrong angles and missing tackles - consistently. Even today on GMFB they had Mostert's long run for Angry Runs - everyone called out Epenesa, but sure enough there was Hamlin right next to him, slowing down, not getting the angle, and getting swatted away like a fly.

Nineforty Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I take Josh at his word and think it was a meaningful admission a couple of weeks back when he said he is going to be dealing with the elbow issue for the foreseeable future. Doesn't mean I expect losses! But I think it is an important factor and something that makes me nervous for the rest of the season and in the offseason when I'm expecting a surgery to be scheduled (shortly after he hoists the Lombardi). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game was moved due to conditions that were UNSAFE TO TRAVEL IN. Confirming the move in a statement on Thursday, the NFL cited "public safety concerns" due to the extreme weather expected in Buffalo. Erie County, which encompasses Buffalo, declared a state of emergency on Thursday and imposed a driving ban starting at 9pm local time for all but authorized emergency travel. New York Governor Kathy Hochul said in a press briefing on Thursday that the impending lake-effect blizzard was "life threatening". Some things are bigger than football you simpleton.

Mark Vader Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 8 hours ago, Blah Blah said: I lived in Chicago for a few years. I've never been to a place that cold and windy. Buffalo might have its snowstorms but in Chicago, your nostrils freeze together. I was working for a place just off Michigan Ave and happened to be looking out the window, when I saw a poor guy in a wheelchair trying to cross the street without any help. The wind blew him off his wheelchair and he rolled around in the street for a few minutes. People tried to help him but he refused help. Someone fetched his wheelchair, which had blown crazily farther away and he eventually got back in it, by himself, and made it across the street. Chicago winters are absolutely brutal but it keeps the riff-raff off the streets. I think you'll see crime plummet a bit in the winter over there. I don't know about that. Jussie Smollett was on the streets in wintertime there. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Stadium Original Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 For those paying attention, I wouldnt worry about Josh Allen's elbow and throwing the ball anywhere if the weather forecast materializes. High temperature will be around 8 degrees and winds gusting over 50 miles an hour. Even with a healthy elbow thats way more wind than he can throw in. Makes me wonder if the Bills field a true 4-3 defense as Fields is probably even less likely to throw the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think we are so bad at 3rd and short? We’re among the worst in the league at 3rd and short, but still one of the best 3rd down teams overall because we can’t run. We execute designed QB run plays for Allen. I can't give you a breakdown of how much of his yards are designed runs vs scrambles, but designed QB runs are a not inconsiderable part of the run yardage Allen gains. It's not correct to characterize "most of those rushing yards are Allen scrambling". For another thing, while Allen is the team's leading rusher, don't confuse that with "Allen generates most of the team's rushing yards". As you can see from the table in the link above, about 63% (almost 2/3) of the Bills rush yards come from rushers not named Josh Allen. It's a fair point that Allen is a large part of our run game, but you don't just get to define Allen's runs out of the picture and say "we have no run game and can barely run". That would be like saying "except for this and that long play, the Bills D didn't give up any yards". All the yards our D gives up count; All the rush yards we gain, whether from other backs or from Allen, count. That means we're 8th in the league at running the ball. 2 hours ago, DapperCam said: Singletary is the #26 ranked back. It’s great that Allen can scramble (which is where the majority of the team’s rushing yards come from) I'm afraid you need to show some data to back this statement up. First of all, as tabulated elsewhere and linked above, the majority of the Bills rush yards still come from the RBs. Therefore this statement is false, and you should stop making it. Second, for the ~36-37% of the Bills rush yards that Allen generates, you'd need to show that the majority of them are scrambles, and not designed QB runs or "keeps" on read-options or RPOs in order to make your case.
