I think it's cute how the Pats play Cincy without Burrow and we get to play him after he warms up for a week or two.

 

Count your blessings PatsFan!!

Burrow could still be rusty. And the Bills tend to.play better vs good QB's this season.

Yeah, great OL depth isn't something a lot of teams think about first, but having at least a couple guys that can immediately step in and keep the offense rolling at close to normal is huge.  If Spencer Brown is going to IR, that's a big loss for the Bills OL, but Ryan Van Demark, while obviously not the same, can hold his own.

Well the OLine was beyond terrible last year, so bad that 4 of the 5 starters this year are new and 2 of those are rookies. So they did a great job making it a competent group but only so much you can do in 1 off season..  I am just hoping the Oline coach was part of the issue last year and Lowe is at least serviceable enough where he doesn’t get Maye killed back there

Cool, maybe they'll run for under 150 against us instead of 200+ yards.

 

With all of our injuries we might be starting a Defense of street FA's by the time we face them.

And Chase. And Higgins for a stretch. Maybe Chase will spit on someone from Baltimore Thanksgiving night?

 

Jokes aside you know we'll be playing both those guys plus Burrow by the time our game rolls around, then we get the Pats coming off the bye

Higgins injury looked scary I think he was knocked out for a second.. he may not be back for a bit.

Good coaching can do wonders.  Aaron Kromer is known for getting the most out of the guys he has even if they aren't all super talented.  He gets those five to play good together as a unit and that's all you can hope for.

Yeah it definitely looked rough. It's possible he could still be out.

 

Forgot to mention but Hendrickson missing another game certainly helped to offset the Oline injuries. I fully expect him back for the Bills too the way our season is going.
