Really good game for von to become von again

Still wearing his brace, when he said he would shed it after T day…

 

Did anyone notice the one play on the snap Von immediately bent the edge toward behind the center. Hurts was in the gun, and ran the other way. It was bizarre. 
 

He honestly looks like one of my buddies suited up and went out for an old college try

The fact that he’s still wearing the brace, tells me he’s not all the way confident in his knee.

Really good game to bench his ass, oh well, too late now.  As some of the posters say.. "it's part of the rehab process".  If that's the case the rehab process needs to be scrapped with the 100m loss, it's crippled the Bills as is, no need to cripple them further by trying to play him.  He flat out sucks, worse than any of our back ups.

The Cover 1 guys (Gregg Thompsett/Aaron Quinn) in their postgame rundown specifically called Von out for the inexplicable misses on play recognition and lack of speed—albeit acknowledging that he’s at the same point Tre was in his recovery when we were worried Tre wasn’t going to return to form, etc. But he’s also older and you have to wonder how much internal drive there is to really put in that extra effort when he’s gotten paid and has trophies already sitting there, etc.

You don't have to wonder *****, watch the film.  Bench the guy.  It dont matter now though

I have no idea why we rushed him back like this. 

 

Did Von tell McD he was ready to go ? And the coaches/doctors thought that was good enough ? I can't believe McD could see him like this in a practice and think he was ready to go.

 

He's not only NOT 100%, he's so far from healthy he's a liability out there. We would've been better off letting him recuperate on IR and use the roster slot on a guy that was sitting on a couch (ala Linval Joseph) or a PS guy.

By far the worst of Beane signing, in desperation to win it all due to failure of major draft picks invested in the DL, major FA money spent on the DL.  None the less we still needed to sign a 31 year old has been to make up for the failures of the DL drafts, FA signings etc.  Have we ever focused on the significance of Allen not having better weapons?  The Oline?  Very rarely in the McDermott era.  That needs to change asap.  It starts with the coach.  The mentality needs to change here and it won't

He is toast.  So are Hyde and Poyer TBH.  Father Time is undefeated.

 

Von can't move anymore.  He is beyond slow.  Hyde can't cover anymore.  He was awful tonite.  And has been getting beat all year.  Poyer is almost as bad in coverage.  At least he can still hit.  We need some serious young talent on defense.

Guy is over a year from the injury.   Stop with the excuses.  Tre was a year out and has to stay with WRs cutting, but somehow Von cant juke a 300 plus pound OT?   Give any street free agent his snaps and you would have more stats than Vons one tackle/one assist.   He's downright embarrassing and giving zero effort.   I wouldnt even dress him at this point he is such a liability.  Holy crap I think Beane may have actually moved some of his money into year 4 and will cost us over 10 million even then in dead space.

I wouldn't even activate him after watching his film the last few weeks
