Toledo Bill Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 All our injuries are bad but I see our defense getting shredded against the run going forward. DaQuan was such a force and his play really helped out Oliver. Phillips seems to do nothing but try to fire up the crowd, Settle never makes plays and no idea what’s going on with Poona Ford. Of course the Milano injury is huge but so is Jones injury. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr.Sack Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Poona Ford bulks up to 500, and Bills resign Michael Jasper. That’s 1,000lbs of run stuffing. 1 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsPride12 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 There is going to be no replacing what Daquan and Milano bring to the table for our Defense.

Zag20 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Yeah Jones being out against the bengals in the playoffs was huge IMO. Phillips got his hands on a couple passes today FWIW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Oliver played well even after Jones went out. I would expect Poona may be active going forward. Dorian Williams flashed a few times today. Sure, had a few rough snaps as well. But I'm excited to see what he may bring 1 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just laugh when fans think Beane can waive his magic wand and work a trade on the spot to bring in a comparable replacement to guys like that. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 I thought J Phillips was Ok he had a deflection and did some things. Poona Ford is going to be critical. Can he back fill for Jones enough? Also is there any update on Jones? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Riverside Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Who won the Ford is a legit one tech who doesn’t rush the passer I guess Will be OK with him for however, long DaQuan Jones is out They weren’t running on us today when it mattered it was happening on the quarterbacks arm and penalties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Poona Ford will get the call and I think he will do well. If the Bills can get Jones back at some point that will help but the Bills with Ford in place for Jones can be OK. Just have to hope along the edge Groot and Shaq come back.

Boatdrinks Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Too bad they lost Ankou this week off the PS. Hindsight is 20/20 but maybe they should have found a way to put him on the 53 vs losing him to Atlanta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spent great years there in med school and did my residency at ST V’s/ MERCY/TOLEDO /FLOWER hospitals. I am 66 now , had a great 40 plus year career thanks to the under rated and great hospitals in that area. Was a great city too with nice parks / nightlife as i was in my mid 20’s! These injuries are to game changing type guys. Not possible to just find the same caliber to plug and play. Like last year, this might be too much to overcome. The bengals looked bad until today as BURROWS looked good today. Doesn’t look like luck is on the bills side once again; maybe there is something to the madden curse given these last two weeks. Best wishes, enjoy the fall weather we just don’t get much of here in Jax fl! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gobills404 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Daquan was the absolute last player on this defense I wanted to see get hurt due to the terrible depth behind him. Not saying he’s the best player on the defense, but I feel MUCH better about Dorian and the backup CBs than I do about Phillips/Settle/Ford. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nedboy7 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 The losses on D will be apparent. And the narrative here will shift towards how McD is not a great coach although we saw what he can do with talent. Very unfortunate situation. I felt really depressed today.

TheyCallMeAndy Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Puna Ford is a true run stuffing NT, hopefully Jones isn’t done for the year and Ford and fill in the gaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford has not been good from what I read but he is a one tech and a decent type to replace Jones. He has to step it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSBill Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I really did not like it when the Falcons signed Eli Ankou; now I really hate it. He was more than adequate, just not room for him on the Bills roster. Well, Poona Ford, time to earn that money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
transplantbillsfan Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Losing Jones is huge just because of how high a level he was playing, but I'm much less concerned with his loss than Milano simply because of the depth we have at DT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
