Poor guy working OT this year trying to keep up.  how does a team have a 10 day break and get more injuries?

[ProcessTruster]

If they can somehow get past the Steelers things will be better.   I just don't know how that happens exactly.   Run the ball 40 times?

Have listened to this Dr. many times on various Bills podcasts - good insights on recovery timetables, etc.

Good thing we’re coming off a mini bye

We practice it. To get good at it.

….while missing 40% of our starting OLine. Maybe the defense and ST can pitch in for a few points? Maybe??

They need to win the turnover battle, or at least break even.  These -3 games are almost impossible to win.

Agreed.  Not feeling good about this one.  Coaches better have some trick up their sleeves.

The ironic thing is this guy took his back out trying to carry all the Bills injury paperwork to his office

I'm asking myself the same question after a 10 day rest!!

Im expecting an ultra-conservative game-plan by both coaches with maybe some grey zone 4th down attempts. A lot of waiting for the other team to make a mistake. 
 

could be wrong but that’s what I’m expecting.

every year has its share of injuries but this year seems particularly brutal.

 

I understand next man up but DANG.

 

it's frustrating and not realistically is there Anything that can be done to prevent them for the future
 

Not really am I right?  the Bills training staff has state of the art facilities. I have to believe that conditioning isn't really a factor for our team . am I wrong about that?

 

thoughts?

The blue tent on the sidelines looks like an emergency room

Bills are going with the Next Man Down philosophy.

I find myself intrigued by the Grable-Stash situation and hope the Buffalo media try to peel into the timeline more as to when he was actually cleared from the concussion and ready to return. 
 

From the outside it looks like they wanted to prevent exposing their OL #10 (Lundt) by keeping their preferred swing tackle from 2024 in IR longer than needed … A terrible miscalculation especially if he isn’t ready to play this week. 
 

Who cares if Lundt isn’t on this team anymore? We’ve seen this story with Jack Anderson and Luke Tenuta and Nick Broeker … These guys are nobody’s  and if the Bills kept Grable on IR when healthy to protect the last OL then I’d really be concerned with this leaderships talent management.

Honestly, there is. 
 

Some of it is bad luck. 
 

Some of it is the players we target…

 

Undersized linebackers and undersized DT’s.  Puts heavy strain on the spine of our Defense where we teams will constantly attack.  Undersized players get hurt more.  Worn down = More injury exposure. 
 

We run an offense that is predicated on ball control, so we don’t have a build to jump ahead on teams fast.  So teams can hang around and continue to attack the undersized spine of our Defense. 
 

We also extended an injury prone player in Bernard.  Signed an injury prone player in Bosa.  Have older players at DT and LB.

 

Knew Hoecht was on a PED suspension. PED’s are notorious for leading to ligament/tendon injuries. 
 

Gave 8M per year to Samuel.. a guy who’s always been injured.

 

Finesse WR-esque TE .. always hurt. 
 

You also make your own luck.
