Officially ruled out which sucks, dude has been balling.  AJ and Kingsley need to step up if Von is also out

 

Also tried changing x to Twitter and still won't embed. I'm on phone btw

 

Bro, paste the link. Leave the cursor at the end of the link. Then press the return button on your phone or keyboard and it embeds the link.

Damn...do the Bills lead the NFL in players who finish a game fine and then miss the next week with an injury that happened during the game??

 

Seems like this happened a ton last year too.

He seems to get banged up often.  Might be that long lanky build, hope it's not a continuing trend.

 

Ed Oliver landed on him...pretty sure not many guys would be feeling great if a 290 lb DT landed on their foot

Hate losing a guy like him for the game, but rather it be early in the season than late/playoffs. AJE has been playing well. I sort of expect more Lawson on early downs and AJE in pass situations. As well as he's been playing he's still a liability in the run game and the Jags can run the ball.

Like Poyer last week, it’s more than likely a good sign that he finished the game injured from a long-term injury perspective.  Rosseau  may have to miss a week or two, but hopefully he’s fully healed and ready to tear it up again.  He’s having a great season

Yikes, I had it wrong I figured it was just a bruise and they were resting him.

 

Guess having a 300 pound DT slam their knee down on your foot does some damage. I think we are fotunate he didn’t break a metatarsal and be out for 8 weeks.

 

Rest him up. Maybe throw in a few Von snaps but hopefully AJE/Kingsley can step up a bit.

 

I think you attack Lawrence the same way as Tua - pressure up the middle, get him off his spot, DE’s play contain to keep him from running.

The beauty of having a deep DL is for situations like this. 
 

Epenesa has looked good out there, and as long as we have Jones/Oliver wrecking interior OL’s with Floyd on the other side, I still feel good about this group.  
 

Hopefully Von is able to be given the green light to rotate in on passing downs, and then we can probably let Rousseau rest for as long as needed to get back to full strength.

This sucks. If I remember this is his 3rd foot injury. Hopefully this is not a chronic issue. He was not the same player when he came back from injury last year. Someone posted a pic showing Oliver falling on the ankle. 

 

Last year was a high ankle sprain.  What other injury has he had?

Bummer.  Jax is going to want to slow this game down and dirty it up in the running game I imagine so losing a guy on that rotation on the d line stinks.

 

Hopefully the offense will put on a show this week again  and get them a big lead minimizing some of these injuries.

For me, on an iPhone, I paste the link, hit return and then wait a second or two and the link embeds.

Doesn't work for me either. Maybe some phones just don't get along with TBD for some reason.

Von seemed to think he had insider information that he was going to play on Sunday so I'm okay with this.  He said on his Voncast this week that he's 90% sure fans will see him play in London.

If he does play it better be just a few selective plays. We need him and Groot for that 2nd half.  AJ & Leonard will have a heavy load Sunday.

The down side, Groot is absolutely elite at run defense, AJE is borderline awful.  I’d expect Lawson to get some major reps this week as Etienne is a guy that can take it to the house the minute he breaks contain.   Good news, the line has depth, there’s definitely a fall off, but you are handing off responsibility to another 1st round pick, so it’s not like it’s massive gap.
