Oh, Gawd, please reconsider the way you worded this.  That's a horrible way to view a football player's serious injury, even if he plays for an opposing team.

 

Buffalo should mind their own store and take care of their own business.

 

As a fan you make your peace with the fact that football has an injury rate of roughly one hundred percent.

 

Nobody is dancing around because a guy got hurt.  But it's a fact of the game.  Everybody gets them.  We have had our share and nobody felt sorry for us.  It's okay to discuss how it might affect your team's chances going forward.  After all, part of taking care of their own business includes winning in week 18.

100%. The second you cheer injuries on a rivals team…take a guess what happens to your team next?

 

So you are saying posters cheering injuries to opposing head coaches have ulterior motives?

 

I am sorry if Coach McD gets hit by a semi but I have been hoping for Beli-CHEAT to get hit by a semi for years.

I'm sorry, but the OP post referenced the Fins C injury as "The cards keep falling Buffalo's  way".

 

I'm not feeling sorry for the Fins, but viewing their C's injury as a card falling our teams way is a Bridge too Far IMHO.  You do You though.

Dolphins just signed Bills killer Melvin Ingram.

I saw this. Ingram rag-dolled Spencer Brown last time they faced each other, all 6-8 320 Ibs of him. Kept making impact plays all game. Why is he still available?

No need to apologize.

 

Anyway, it IS a card that fell our way.  They're not as good as they were 24 hours ago.  That's undeniable.  What I take issue with is saying that they KEEP falling our way.  These things have a way of evening out over time, and nothing you or I do or say will impact that.

Whatever. I didn't say I'm glad the guy is hurt nor did i or have i ever wished for any player to get hurt. 

 If a player being unavailable hurts the Dolphins and helps the Bills, so be it. 

And as much as you might not want to acknowledge it,  anything that negatively affects the teams ahead of the Bills and improves the Bills playoff chances,  would apply to the figure of speech I used.

This hurts them bad. Their backup Center is Eichenberg and he has struggled tremendously at the position. They play the Jets with Quinnen Williams, Dallas with their #3 defense, the Ravens with their #2 defense, and then us with Ed Oliver. I hope Tua makes it through the rest of the season healthy because the prospects are not looking good for his protection at the moment. 

Yeah and if Daquan Jones is playing in the regular season at all it's going to be this game, not to mention Ed who's a monster and Linval Joseph who has been filling in very well, could be a real nightmare.

If Tua is gonna get hurt, I hope it's before our game.  Not because I don't want to play him, but because I don't want us to be responsible for it.  It's going to be a gauntlet for him.  I hope he stays healthy too.

As advantageous as it might be, it’s never good karma to cheer injuries.  Karma has a strange way of working out

I'm not sure about that. I think he'll go when he's ready to go, but it would be awesome if somehow he was able to for this game. Exceptionally doubtful unfortunately.

I don't think we're going to see Daquan Jones until he has been "designated to return" and has participated in practice for a couple of weeks.  Even if his pec is ready to go, he needs to build back into "game shape"

[Royale with Cheese]

This is a massive loss for them.  Their line was already bad and he was they best they had.

Tua is a guy that if you take away his first read, he holds the ball.

Do you know some inside info or are you just talkin out your you know what?

 

Minnesota Vikings DE Danielle Hunter suffered a season-ending pectoral tear in 2021 in Week 8 and missed 10 games total, undergoing surgery.

 

Former G Jon Feliciano tore his right pectoral muscle bench pressing shortly after training camp broke in 2020. He underwent surgery and missed all of training camp before returning in Week 8, missing seven games, and taking three months to return

 

Former Texans DE JJ Watt tore his left pectoral muscle and returned in 10 weeks during the 2019 season, just in time for the Bills to face them in the playoffs. 

 

Some internet examples of total pec tears requiring surgery. Seems to be a 10-12 week recovery. Week 18 would be 13 weeks. Everyone is different, but I think the chances are pretty solid we see him again this year.

I mean that would be why I said if he plays in the regular season it would be the very last game of the regular season. 🤷‍♂️

But who knows there's four games left if he's trending in the right direction.

Just based on what McDermott said the other day.

 

Yeah, I think we’ll see him again this year, I was meaning likely not for the Dallas game.

Weren’t they playing at home on grass when the injury occurred?

I was being facetious. You never hear about the surface when it occurs on grass.

Not sure how anyone sees this as a break for us after the Bengals reserve O-linemen bullied our defensive line for 48 minutes in a playoff game. 

The Bills were down to their back-ups on D-line too.   Daquan & Von were out & Phillips was playing w a dislocated shoulder bc no one else was left.

[Dillenger4]

As one of my friends who is a diehard Phins fan always says to me when we are decimated by injuries (Von, Tre, Milano, Daquan, Dane, Hyde):

"Oh well, whatever... thats football. Suck it up"

Get wrecked Miami!

GO BILLS!!

Yep.  Every fan from every football team disregards other teams' injuries and over emphasizes their own.

 

It's part of being a fan.  Next man up.

Huge loss for their offense.  I ain’t sad
