Jordan Phillips out -- Should we bring Ndamukong Suh in?

[Iraq Vet]

Can they sign him for a 3 game deal then cut him?  A true mercenary move. Vet min for few games? Then go with DaQuan Jones in the playoffs.

 

Not the dumbest idea ever right?  If he is in shape, he has fresh legs for 3 games.   Just play him on 1st downs.

Do they have cap space?

[extrahammer]

can't he wear a brace for the wrist or change his stance? 

[Iraq Vet]

We do have the cap space for 3 games on a cheap vet deal. 

[NewEra]

Or we can just roll with Poona vs the chargers and Pats and get both daquan and JP back for miami

[Iraq Vet]

Suh says he want to play for a contender...

Yes this is the logical move but Poona Ford’s  absence on the 53 is a great mystery.  Eric Washington said he wouldn’t “be ready” for the Chargers.  Why?  Who knows?

 

All I know is that Poona took less money to come to Buffalo and the Bills signed him to a decent contract above the vet minimum.  
 

When he was active, his tape showed some good reps and some bad ones - even a few flashes.   No different that Jordan Phillips or Tim Settle.

 

You’d assume he’d be the next man up but I have a feeling Eli Ankou might get called up for this game 

[Blackbeard]

I trust BB and the coaching staff enough to have this one figured out.  I'm sure Suh's name has been discussed.

Either or.  I’m fine with Ankou as well.  I don’t see the need to sign a guy that’s been sitting on the couch for months just  for 1-2-3 games.  

[Royale with Cheese]

Ankou makes the most sense.  Then DaQuan in a few weeks.  OMG that is going to be huge.

I just listened to the press conference, that is not the case.  He said the opposite.

he will lose his bend.

 

jk. with his girth, he has no bend. he has an orbit.

I feel like part of his injury issue is all that orbit free flowing in the wind.

Yeah im not sure why the wrist is so critical here.  His job is to collapse the pocket and just generally be a menace, i loved the fierceness from him especially but the D in general against Dallas

[CaptnCoke11]

Daquan Jones will be back shortly 

[Scott7975]

Seems like a move that will get a guy some guaranteed money only for him to retire at halftime.

It depends on the injury to the wrist.  If he can't bend it, he's useless.

@Simon might finally agree on him having a decent game and coming into value later in the game. the one play he teed up the sack on Dak you saw it coming.

 

long overdue for him. buit that's when our defense starts to flourish - when we are up and can be aggressive. i'm amazed there were no INT's. we had 3 back to back surefire INT's dropped.

yeah we're really beating the odds on those dropped INTs

 

Agreed on your point about our ability to be aggressive, ears pinned back every plan.  For all of Phillips' faults, this is the exact style of D in which he excels and can really be a game wrecker, in the same way that Dawkins is when he is on like he was against the cowboys

[Beast]

Suh and Rapp on the field at the same time. I can’t say I’d dislike that. Kind of a 70’s Raiders feel.

[Freddie's Dead]

My name is Suh, how do you duh?

[Ed_Formerly_of_Roch]

Think it may depend on the Epinesa timeframe.  If he's back this week, then could roll Groot inside more and take up the tackle snaps till either Philips or Jones are back.  Think this week was Millers best game too.

[Big Turk]

Let's just bring DaQuan Jones in

[Big Blitz]

Chargers back up center is out now to.  
 

For those concerned about controlling the A gaps.  
 

We should annihilate this team.  

[Mister Defense]

If Jones is ready for next week, a tough division game with the pats' defense playing well and a little better offense, then no.

 

But if not, heck yeah.

 

Good teams do that, add players that they may need, can fill in a hole, push them over the top.

 

Stopping the run and creating chaos on the D line will be a vital element of this championship run.

Yup, true, and ditto for the Bills against the pats earlier this year, a cakewalk-- and an even better team now, that they play again next week..

Lol hopefully we are past that noise though.

Is Suh even good for anything anymore, outside a few poorly timed roughing the passer penalties?

 I didn't hear that Jordan Phillips would miss the rest of the season. Was there news?

I always thought Ankou played well for the Bill when given the chance--the sample size is small, but he's not. I'm comfortable with him playing on Saturday.

He was asked if he thought Poona would be ready.  He answered something like- "I don't think he'll be ready, I know he will be."

That's what Browny & Tasker said they would probably do, the depth this year is a really good thing to have & if they can use it to get completely healthy even better especially after Jones comes back .
