Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 If they are good to go next week, we'll be remarkably healthy after 2 games. It would be amazing to have Floyd, Rousseau, and Von all healthy heading into the playoffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Lower body injuries can be nagging long term. Hopefully they get the rest they need and heal up. If that means missing Washington I'd rather they do that and be 100% for Miami 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly! A quote from the link: "The good updates from players is only one side of the ledger, though. As we’ve often seen, players will give themselves a clean bill of health when that’s not totally the case." Hopefully not like the Von situation.... Von - "I'm good to go....."

Beck Water Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) 36 minutes ago, Simon said: Sort of an injury update To be fair to the players, they are speaking after the game while they still have all the adrenaline and endorphins rolling through their systems. So likely they don't even feel their injuries. It's really not until 24-48 hrs have passed that the trainers get to reasonably assess how serious the injury truly is, after whatever swelling is gonna occur, occurs. Of course, both Hyde and Floyd are veterans and know to hit the training room and take advantage of every treatment they can to minimize swelling and "get right", whereas some of the younger guys feel invincible and just hit the clubs and worry about tomorrow, tomorrow.

I just took that as “Von being Von”. He hurt it at Thanksgiving. That’s all I needed to know to feel confident he would not be active at the beginning of the season. I just hope when Von DOES come back he looks more like the guy we knew than when Tre White reluctantly returned. Adding a healthy Von to this defense could be great fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will want him for stretch run - but i don't think you give him a ton of snaps right away. Maybe lag behind floyd and rousseau and just use him situationally more. You paid him to get to QBs in the playoffs. Now obviously if we aren't looking playoff bound midseason this plan is gone and you do what you gotta do to get a ticket.

Sierra Foothills Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 (edited) One possible achilles heel for this team is the age... particularly on defense... Hyde, Poyer, Von Miller, Leonard Floyd. I hope the Bills have the opportunities during the season to spot in the younger players and keep some of the mileage off these guys.

To be fair to Von and the training staff, IIRC Von's initial MRI and exam were negative, and the torn Achilles wasn't found until he decided to have a little clean up procedure on his knee cartilage to help him play with a brace.

MasterStrategist Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Coach labeled both as " day to day", during today's presser. Nothing groundbreaking, typical McD speak. Floyd looked very ginger walking off yesterday (I sit near the tunnel). But that could mean nothing. Hopefully both get in the hyperbaric, and quick recovery. Wouldn't surprise me to see them miss some practice time/rehab. Washington is a solid opponent, but the Miami game is alot more important. I'm curious if Rapp or Lewis would fill in for Micah. Rapp is more Poyer-type 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bills Management - ".....In 4 weeks, maybe." Lol yup. Unfortunately things that von say mean nothing at all. I don't think he's dishonest, he just has an undying optimism and it makes him wrong, not a liar. Remember after the injury? Couple days later on his podcast saying he'll be back in 11 days. That was around Thanksgiving last year and we're still waiting. O'dell? Dhop? Von is just projecting his wants into the air hoping they become reality. Hopefully Hyde and Floyd don't have the same affliction. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
