Success Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 If there is a theme to the '23 Bills season - that is it. Will we have Benford, Johnson, Bernard, et al. next week? I hope we do. But if not, there is Elam, Klein, Williams, Lewis, et al. Part of the game. Unless you're KC. 2 2 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red King Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 It's staggering. Each injury looks back-breaking, and yet they somehow keep it rolling. Given the sheer number of injuries thus far it's completely unbelievable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sierra Foothills Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 (edited) Posted in another topic but worth repeating here: Injured LBs this season: Milano, Bernard, Dodson, Spector. We’re now playing our 5th and 6th LBs in Dorian Williams and AJ Klein. Injured CBs this year: Tre’Davious White, Christian Benford, Rasul Douglas. We’re now playing our 4th and 5th CBs in Dane Jackson and Kaiir Elam. Taron Johnson out so we’re playing Cam Lewis. How many NFL teams could be this deep into their roster and still field a respectable defense? BTW, I believe Von Miller crossed into a higher level of confidence today so we should have an improved pass rush for whatever remains.

BBFL Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 If we beat KC next week with the same defense, McD should have 5 more years here. The way this team has turned around and dealt with injuries; specifically the defense, it’s a testament to the work he does here. Definitely another year here. 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Logic Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 So impressive. Klein Elam Spector Williams Next man up, over and over and over with this team. Yes, the injuries the Bills sustained are very concerning for next week against KC, but that's something to worry about tomorrow. 24 hour rule. Tonight? Tonight it's celebration time. Depth was tested and held firm. On to the Divisional round. GO BILLS!! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wizard Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 It is impressive but far from unprecedented. Let's enjoy the win, but let's not make McDermott into some defensive demigod. 6 weeks ago, we (me included) and depending on the Chiefs game, think he is good but not great.

After turning around the team to the #2 seed… There should be as many threads catering to him staying instead of being canned. I’ll admit, if we missed the playoffs there had to be strong considerations in my book. Maybe this is his stumbling block he finally gets over; KC. Would be fitting to get a Super Bowl and put the 13 seconds demon firmly behind the organization. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s one of the most underreported stories of their run since Mahomes came onto the scene. They suffered OL injuries and got wrecked by Tampa in the SB, but aside from that… they’re always healthy while teams like Buffalo and Cincinnati are battling through multiple big injuries in the playoffs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
