Sad, was really playing well. 

He only has played 2 1/2 games all season.

Next man up. O’Cyrus Torrence can anchor, no?

Does that change the fact that he has been playing well?

Rub some dirt on it. 

MOM we need some spit - the mixture of dirt and moms spit no injury can make it through that, that always helped ...

Hopefully Ed develops crazy Wolverine like healing powers, like JJ Watt. Didn't he come back from a torn bicep is something ridiculous, like 6 weeks, when he was with the Texans?

If Ed Oliver can make it back for the Playoffs, which WC/Divisional Round would be the timeline if he has surgery this week.. that’s a huge get for the Postseason.

 

Obviously the worry is how effective will

he be if/when he gets back.

Yeah and his game back was vs the Bills and he was a wrecking crew

Ed seems to wear down throughout the year.  Makes sense considering his size and position.

 

IF he is able to return this may be a blessing.  He could be fresh for the postseason.

JJ Watt is a freak of nature. I remember one year Hard Knocks did the Falcons and they played the JJ Watt Texans and the Falcons had a rookie RT get burnt by Watt in the pre-season and the other veteran linemen had to tell the rookie don't get too down on yourself no one else is like JJ Watt. Basically that even for the NFL where everyone is a freak this guy is a freak among freaks. 

 

That being said not all tears are the same from what I am reading. Not all tears are the same. Some tears need less time to come back. Hoping for the best for Ed Oliver as he's so critical to this defense. Hoping that if it is a tear he can maybe come back late December early January (which would be about 10 weeks) and play a warm up 10-12 snaps game in the regular season and be ready for the playoffs.

Yeah sure - because it only took like 5 weeks to get back on the field after somebody stepped on his foot and his little piggy went wee wee wee all the way home. 

Due to age and attrition the Bills appear to be fielding one of their weaker defensive rosters in the past few years, and now we'll be missing one of the anchors of the D line.  Can't catch a break.

I was thinking the same.  

 

It seems realistic he could be back for a playoff run - and that's when we'll really need him.

What does that have to do with what he said?

 

Ed has played well this season.  Period.  But put a negative spin on it, just because

Brutal. 

Surgery, shockwave, prp, red light therapy, massage. 6-8 weeks.

Hoecht has been playing a bunch of DT today and is country strong.

Losing Ed would hurt bad, but Hoecht may have come back just in time to mitigate some of the pain.

Hoecht is country strong in the East German Olympic Team sense.

The left tackle just rode ed to the ground.  What a bummer.

I cannot believe you just called him a woman after the game he had.

Do we have an ETA on TJ Sanders' return?
