He was off to a good start but injury riddled season That’s kind of been his story since he left Buffalo. The business of trying to chase people down and pulling a hammy or hurting his shoulder was silliness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Hucklebuck Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 He must have torn his labrum. Early on there was hope it was just dislocated, but he went out in Chicago as soon as he made a routine tackle. He won’t be back next year unless its vet minimum. And I like him as a player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when he was healthy for them he was a force. Dude is the Sammy Watkins of DT's, if he was durable he'd be a legend. 3 hours ago, Steptide said: Wasn't this his issue with the cards?

Straight Hucklebuck Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 IR Phillips and bring in Brandon Bryant from the practice squad. You can’t place all that additional load on Settle, Jones and Oliver. You need a DT that can at least be healthy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine if we had Von and Jordan Phillips 100% healthy right now we would be a different team. Now we have to rely on guys like Epenesa to contribute and he just cant make an impactful play to save his life these days. I feel like we should move Rousseau around more vs Miami.

Phillips is a big upgrade to Bryant when healthy I’m not sure how IR rules work for the playoffs, but PS elevations re-set and become unlimited for each player However, the teams still only get 2 elevations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed I would rather have a 100% healthy Brandon Bryant, then having to take Phillips out of the game after a play Phillips has done his job. We are in the playoffs with second place seeding Edited January 9, 2023 by John from Riverside 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in the playoffs with second place seeding Yeah, like I said, Banged up Bills (although wrong a lot) did bring up that there are three stages. AC sprain was best case scenario. We know it’s worse than that. Dislocation was next, but he can’t raise his arm. So I think we’re going to find out it’s his labrum after the season. I hope Sean and Frazier just do the smart thing and get Bryant in there. They can’t keep putting Phillips on the field with one arm, it’s obviously hurting the team. Teams are going to identify that quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussie Joe Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 (edited) I like Jordan.. but this hasn’t been his year with this injury…. Might have to come back real cheap next year ala Lawson this year… Lawson deserves some more money in 2023 Edited January 9, 2023 by Aussie Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not getting squat from Epenesa or Basham. We're down to one decent pass rusher in Groot and one DT in Oliver. Every time we blitz Tremaine it's a wasted play. Thank God Shaq has played well, but we're going to have to activate arena football mode and outscore teams..

Beane found us Josh so for that he kinda gets a lifetime pass. He's not going to hit on everyone but along with a WR2 and a couple olineman we'll have to go back to the drawing board on DE.

I suppose no one else is capable? Odd considering how much capital is on that DL It's alarming to me that the Bills are putting him out there in this condition. That video is jarring. New England is <5 yards in and he might as well be out there in a sling. The Coaching staff needs to do the right thing for the team and get another Defensive Lineman that is fully capable on the field. Jordan played 19 snaps yesterday. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillenger4 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 He's clearly slinged up which means the staff know that he is hurt therefore we sling him and limit his capability in a game where we know we are the better team and will win, which we did. Jordan had 19 snaps, get's him some game "practice" and get's him ready for the playoff push. He was most likely told "don't raise your arm"! He's fine and he's a stud for us! He will be fine for the Miami game. GO BILLS!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastport bills Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 The biggest attribute of a good NFL player is availability. Phillips is a warrior but he can’t stay on the field. He was a no show with Arizona for much of his time there. Just take the week and see if you can play in the division game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sucks that he is pretty useless now because of an injury that occurred with him making the senseless decision to lunge at a QB at the end of a game that wasn't a contest anymore when he had no chance of tackling him.............but poor decision making and being injured are the two primary reasons he's never played up to his potential. You get what you get with Jordan Phillips. Maybe he takes the shots in the playoffs and can play better thru the pain. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Basham is useless as a DE. He should only get some reps as the fourth or fifth DT. Epenesa and Basham picks looking as bad or worse than Ford. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But hey on the bright side I hear the staff has some plans for AJ to cut weight next offseason to help with his explosiveness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had no word about Kumerow or Crowder, so they're not coming back. Nothing on Hyde since December. He's not coming back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
