No, only if it affects his practice or playing time. And since Josh isnt coming out of that #1 spot and is full go in everything, they dont have to report any of it.

 

That's why every post season you hear about guys who played through fractures, tears, etc. Never stopped them so not on the injury report.

Only if it limits him in practice, I think?

if this is true, don’t the bills have to report it on he injury report? 

Injuries must be reported if a player receivers specialized or targeted treatment, above and beyond the scope of average TLC, for an injury. 
 

This is why you see guys practicing in full yet on the report. They may be doing everything at practice but are listed on the report because of their treatment to a particular area.

This may have been said but yesterday shows why there were complaints about the defense against the Texans. The offense was anaemic in the first half, but the defense kept us in it. They didn't give away a back breaking drive at the end of the half. They gave the offense time to find their footing, and stick to the original game plan. Sometimes that is required. And that was missing in Houston.

What the hell is up with you guys looking at today’s offense and trying to extrapolate through the playoffs? This isn’t the offense we are going to use the rest of the season. It was an opponent specific offense that WORKED and got us the W. Yes, we all know we aren’t going to beat many teams without an intermediate or downfield passing game. But guess what, Brady actually called a good game today and it WORKED. We needed the W, we got the W. We played to the weaknesses of the opposing defense for once. I’m not even talking about our defense which has been stepping up a bit recently. Too many of you look at one game and try and predict the next 5 from it. This is not the gameplan we will have against other teams, it worked against the Steelers so enjoy the W and re-fkn-lax a bit 

Well, I was going to start a new thread called "WINTER IS COMING"!

 

Because what we all saw against the Steelers is exactly what's needed going forward. That Pittsburgh front defensive line is no joke, and this team outright manhandled them while rushing for 249 yards against that team in their stadium. 

 

You know what can stop a top passing offense? That howling, blustery wind in Rich-the Ralph, err, New Era stadium is known as one of the worst venues if the winds are strong, and the snow? Does anyone else recall that Colts game a few years ago?

 

"And pretty alarming for Pittsburgh (6-6). On a blustery day that made passing treacherous, the Steelers knew they were going to be tested by one of the NFL's best rushing teams. They failed repeatedly. Buffalo held the ball for nearly 42 minutes and probably could have taken control earlier if not for a pair of first-half turnovers."

 

"The swirling winds at one of the league's trickiest venues made passing nearly impossible for both teams. Allen completed 15 of 23 for 123 yards with an interception and a 3-yard scoring toss to Keon Coleman, who returned to the active roster after being a healthy scratch the last two weeks due to disciplinary issues."

Yep, and Cook was the leading receiver! 

TE's came up big a couple of times too. Pass game isn't as bad as many think. Get a couple of guys back and we could see something special heading into the playoffs. I think they're beginning to figure some things out.

I would hate to be a steeler fan. That is a bad football team with not a lot to look forward to. They are stuck in the forever 9-8 football. 

But Tomlin has never had a losing season so he must be amazing.  His steak will continue on at 9-8.
