Lewis is an accident just waiting to happen,  has no where near the athletic talent or speed that Elam has. 5 hours ago, 26TrapDraw said: We weren’t meant to see him in the boot when he left practice to go to his house fire. He will not be a 100 percent. If the Dolphins think he will fly around when he wore an immobilized boot on Wednesday this Sunday they are fooling themselves. Let’s go play this Triage unit physical and kick their ass. Tackle at Hill's ankle area,  that boot being worn says he won't be anywhere near 100% 25 minutes ago, billsfan_34 said: Mostert and Achane a close second.

Royale with Cheese Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 6 minutes ago, Niagara Dude said: Lewis is an accident just waiting to happen,  has no where near the athletic talent or speed that Elam has. Elam is more athletic talent and speed over all of our secondary and he is still not dressing.  In the NFL, you need more than just speed and athletic talent. If it was just based on that, you wouldn’t have early first round busts. Lewis is a good player and might be one of our starting safeties next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitewalkerInPhilly Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 I am 100% sure that Hill will play, the question is how much he's slowed. Â I suspect this is gamesmanship from McDaniel. No matter what he's going to be playing people who are banged up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CEN-CAL17 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 6 hours ago, Captain_Quint said: It wouldn't surprise me to see Miami try and run it more this Sunday with all the injuries they have. I'm not sure that they can, but Achane is a gamebreaker, and probably will be mostly healthy. 100%, to include swing passes to Achane all day. Run the clock down.  Bills counter that by going up by double digits. A quick start is much needed this week, which hasn’t happened in nearly a month now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenorthremembers Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Remember last year when the Bengals were starting second string guards vs the Bills and the entire oline was banged up?  Dont put too much stock into injury reports.  Even the backups are NFL players.  4 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Story originally appeared on Bills Wire Chubb and Howard already have been ruled out by head coach Mike McDaniel. Mostert and Waddle, two players who missed last week's loss to the Baltimore Ravens because of their injuries, likely will have their playing status determined Friday, and a lot depends on whether they can participate in practice.

Goin Breakdown Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 6 hours ago, MPL said: I used to play little league baseball with this super athletic kid. He was an outfielder and could generally get to any fly ball with ease. However, instead of making routine plays, he would purposefully slow down so he had to make a more spectacular catch. I think that kid grew up to be the Buffalo Bills. This is amazing. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im saying there is a possibility both may be out this Sunday. Neither has the impact that Hill/Waddle posess but it would be significant nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 The latest is that Waddle has made significant progress as of today.  Also, Morse has an illness and is now questionable for Sunday.  smh…  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he plays this weekend, but he's def not 100% When he returned to his house while the firefighters were putting out the fire Tyreek was in a walking boot.

That’s why Im shocked Waddle is listed as questionable.  I can’t see any way he plays on Sunday but it sounds like they are optimistic.   The fact Hill returned so quickly is amazing though his numbers seem to have plateaued so maybe it’s a factor since Tenn.  so maybe it’s still a factor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many were surprised by the boot which I didn't understand because it's been out that he has been dealing with an ankle injury as well.

JMM Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Does anyone know if Waddle and Mostert practiced today? If not, believe me they are NOT playing Sunday. If they were limited probably 50/50 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
