LABILLBACKER Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 45 minutes ago, zow2 said: He looked kind of dejected on the bench. Like he was excited to play but then knew once he was in there for a couple plays he could not get around the turn as an edge rusher. I think he knows his knee is not stable enough yet. Not sure why he was on the active roster today. Remember how tentative Tre was last year. It was like he never really returned to his old level of play. I'm not saying this will be Von's fate but fans have to be patient. He will be amped up slowly by McD, as he should. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freddie's Dead Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Looked slow and labored in the few plays I saw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Sack Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Noticed Von had a huge knee brace on. I’m hoping he is ready to go 20% of the snaps next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshAllin Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 With the defensive players dropping like flies on that field, they probably let him sit it out. Only so him for a few plays early on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously what’s the return on investment been so far? 8 sacks and wins over Baltimore and KC last year. He was living up to the contract until he got hurt.

Buffalo_Stampede Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) One snap he took his rush so wide I thought he was leaving the field. Definitely rusty, or old, or finished. We’ll see. That’s the scary thing with older players, the end happens quickly. See Jordan Poyer. He’s done.

Shaw66 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 12 hours ago, Steptide said: He did nothing. I'd expect it to take a few weeks before he gets back to his normal play McDermott said he was on a pitch count. He was in a baseball cap on the sideline for the whole second half. I think they just wanted him to have a few live-action reps. He played like it was preseason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First game back from an ACL injury less than a year from injuring it with no camp, a week of practice and flying across the world. Of course he looked rusty. People that thought he was gonna be a game wrecker first game back are delusional. Edited October 9, 2023 by Not at the table Karlos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramza86 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Overpaid...but its better that he got some snaps. This is going to be the same as Tre last year. Gonna take about 4-5 weeks until hes playing at his best...but he has to get playing time to get there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Von was in on 20 of 88 defensive snaps. That's about 23% snap count in game one. Providing there were nothing was aggravated or he's not set back....I'm thinking he's closer to 50% next week.

PBF81 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Miller played 20 snaps. About a quarter of the team's D snaps. The trade for him was a risky one, high risk high-reward. Unfortunately the risk part has played out. It's unwise to think that at his age, 34, and coming off that injury, that he'll ever be back to what he was or even close. The only reason why I noticed him yesterday was because I wondered whether he was in and was looking for his number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBrownBear Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 11 hours ago, BillzFreak said: It was his first game back from a torn acl. No training camp no preseason action at all. So can we give it at least a few games before a statement like that? I like the messages questioning his effort and level of engagement. Already makes me look forward to reading the lovely posts about Milano in 12 months. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two “w’s yeah ok - what’s his snap count been since he joined the roster? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
