boater Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Poor Von. He's a proud player with a highly distinguished football history. This situation must absolutely be eating away at him. His likely Hall of Fame career is ending on a whimper, not a bang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpberr Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 If Von Miller is active at the consequence of Linval Joseph not being active, no. I'd prefer having all of the DTs active for this game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nephilim17 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I wonder if the Bills brass knows something about the accusations and that — in addition to Von's nearly invisible play since his return — is making them wary. No proof just a question... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackbeard Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 As much as you all seem to despise our HC, McD has this D playing fantastically. I trust his decisions here. And honesty, it takes major backbone to sit him given the amount of loot the Bills invested. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanC883 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 of course, he will be. McD will say he had a good week of practice, and that he has "experience in big games." All true, perhaps. But, this is a guy who is not fully recovered. He should not play. He's being outplayed on gameday by everyone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msw2112 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 From what I have seen this season, no, he should not be active. But I trust the coaches to evaluate how he looks in practice and then make the decision. Between his age and his injury, he may be done. Now that the Bills made the bold move to sit him last week, it would not be as big of a deal to sit him again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KDIGGZ Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I hope even if he's not playing that he's engaged in meetings and teaching the younger guys what to do in certain situations. His experience is his best asset at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expected at least the same production he gave the Rams. So far a collasoll disappointment. Burn it all down Von. 36 minutes ago, KDIGGZ said: I hope even if he's not playing that he's engaged in meetings and teaching the younger guys what to do in certain situations.

brianthomas Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Von was back to streaming video games on Twitch last night. I'd take this as a sign he's not going to be playing, but its anyones guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned a thousand times here over the last few weeks, I have moved on to hoping legal problems in Texas allow us to back out of his K and see ya later. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 12 hours ago, Ethan in Cleveland said: The reality is every DE not named Floyd is unreliable. I would role the dice the Miller can have an impact play or two. Sometimes these veteran stars just seem to make something happen when it is needed most. Epenesa had zero impact plays last week. Neither did Rousseau. Miller's presence alone may make McDaniel or Tua think twice when assigning blocking schemes. Maybe that is enough to free someone else up. Reality is, if we need our 4th DE to be a difference in this game then they have already lost. As always this game is solely determined on Josh being smart and accurate. Bills should be able to put up 35+ on this defense. Then you can put any body you want at DE to rush the passer the entire second half. Hell you can even rush Dorian Williams from that spot if you want. Agreed. Situational only. He has the experience to make a big play.

Nah, he has one more year here before they can get out of his contract. Can't see any scenario where he isn't here next year just because of the contract. The only thing would be if his off field issue progresses to where they can void his contract. I don't disagree that he, at least so far, looks done or close to done as a player. I just don't think the Bills have any recourse until after this next season if memory serves me correctly regarding his contract. 3 hours ago, Blackbeard said: As much as you all seem to despise our HC, McD has this D playing fantastically.

frostbitmic Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Von obviously isn't back to where he needs to be, and he'll be back next year unless he retires or goes to jail. Why take the risk that he'll get hurt again and miss all of next season too. Floyd and Epenesa have been playing well and Lawson I'd have more faith in, that puts him at DE #5 or #6, Shut him down this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26TrapDraw Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Gimme Epenesa on his jump swat interception of a Tua Screen and run it back for 6 all day instead of Non Miller. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
