RiotAct Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 You balled out last year and came up with a couple huge plays when it mattered most (@KC, and vs. MIA in the Wild Card game). LFG!!! You’re on the Catbird Seat now. Bills Mafia is behind you You’ll never have a bigger shot than right here right now with Tre out for the season again 🙏🙏🙏 11 14 2 4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Great message, and hope he does well. But I believe Dane Jackson is next man up there. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrags Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I agree with all of this. Except as of right now it’s just a speculation that White will be out the season. Don’t think it’s confirmed yet. But I agree it’s most likely the scenario and yes I agree about Elam. Hopefully being sat for 4 weeks lights a fire under him Just now, BuffaloBillyG said: Great message, and hope he does well. But I believe Dane Jackson is next man up there. This is also most likely as of right now. At least until another injury or until Jackson shows he’s limited. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, once we get Von back… that might make up for losing White and then some. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Dane gets the Start obviously. but Elam will be counted on again (like rookie year). 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUNTANBILLS FAN Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I've wanted him to start all year! He balled when he played and get this he can play man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) Dane Jackson is a heck of a backup. I’m sure they’ll rotate CBs in and out like they did last year. Difference is the pass rush is maybe the best in football. Edited October 1, 2023 by Buffalo_Stampede 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yobogoya! Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 This board gonna be so much fun when Ja'Marcus Ingram gets activated from the practice squad next week and Elam stays in sweats. I kid, of course! Probably... I mean, there's no way, right guys? Right...? 😅 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillzFreak Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 It's sink or swim time young fella. If being benched for 4 weeks doesn't put a chip on you're shoulder to show up and show out then I doubt anything will. I hate losing Trey but if there is any position I'm confident about with this coaching staff it's at corner back. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate to admit it, but im eyeball to eyeball with Fin fans after that injury ughhhhhh Well Christian finished the game, after Tre went down. He's a tough dude, proved it LY, but I don't think they risk that if it was serious. So expect him to be ready next week. Tre injury sucks, and everyone should be upset for Tre...great guy/leader/hard worker. But it's the NFL, and we see these injuries happen every week. Aaron achilles, Trevon Diggs ACL, etc. It's more emotional, seeing Tre reaction and knowing what he went thru LY with ACL recovery. Just have to get past it and "next man up", as Coach says. Each year it's a game of attrition and any serious SB contender needs to keep most of their "stars" healthy, and have depth/guys step up. Not to sound rude, I think Tre is back to being a very good/above average corner, but not a "star" anymore. Dane/Elam will need to step up. Milano, Von, Groot, Ed, Floyd, Hyde...all more important to our defense success this year...JMO. Offense: obviously Josh and Diggs, then Dion. Those are the "stars"/extremely critical players to our success, IMO. Dane isn't Tre, neither is Elam at this point, but has most potential given his natural talent. All that to say, fingers crossed on news about Tre (expecting the worst) and prayers to him/family, but we will fine as a defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Tre went down I thought "we could survive this if Benford wasn't getting X-Rays done right now". I thought he was out long term. Him returning was massive. With the way the rest of the D plays, I think we'll be okay with Benford on one side and Jackson and Elam swapping in and out.

Success Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 We had a 1st round pick - who we know is good - not even suiting up this year. Our depth at CB is great.

We play a zone most of the time and if you don't know where you are supposed to be and can't stop grabbing guys it doesn't matter what your 40 time is. Hopefully the time he's had watching he's been learning also. I'd actually be interested to see if throwing him out there he could play through some of the mistakes and learn on the field but when you have a really good team you don't usually get those opportunities.

I think this is where the big intrigue is at. Trial by fire can be great for guys, hopefully they mix him in to get some of that through out the year bc he just moved up and is going to see playing time if Tre thing is confirmed God dang, i wish theyd just overturned that 4th & 1 for a first now.

billsbackto81 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Not good. Pass rush will have to be exceptional. Jax has a very good trio of WRs and they've been there and rested all week. Not the most ideal situation to start our 3rd and 4th string CBs, especially Elam who's been inactive all season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udubalum07 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 If everything is able to start clicking for Kaiir and the way Benford has been playing, the future at cb looks really bright.
