Gotta misspell his name. Nothing gets his fanboys more upset than that 

 

Joe Burrough. Joe Burrows. Joe Borrow.

 

The famed QB from Ole Miss. 

my autocorrect tries to make it burrows every time for some reason 😂

Joe Burrows himself on the injured list every year.

 

I've seen fans say they'd take him over Josh because at least Burrough got his team the super bowl. 

 

That's like saying hey I took her home last night ... So what if she didn't put out

Would like to think this means Kincaid plays since Latu isn’t called up. But since they would have to sign Latu to the active roster for this call up, it is still a mystery until 11:30 Sunday.

Good point and it would be great if he was able to help!

Excited to see what Fox brings to the table. Spector, not so much.

I think this might be Spector's 3rd call up if not mistaken.  Amazingly he has not pulled a hammy yet...

[dcinmuncie]

I don’t know if this means anything (probably not)

but I’ve noticed on Kalshi that the odds to Buffalo have risen. Earlier today /late last night it had the bills at 69 to 70 percent. It’s at 72 now

 

 

also the patriots game was 57-43 pats. It’s now even. FWIW

In Spectors defence, he did show up on special teams last week and covered his lanes

Hopefully Fox is a prime Bruce Smith in disguise.....

 

Honestly, no expectations for either player.  We know what Spector is and there's a reason Fox was on the couch a few weeks ago.  But hey.....  we need bodies.  Hopefully they can provide something of substance while they are out there.

With help from the staff, Spencer brings himself to the trainer’s table.

[Shortchaz]

Doesn’t feel like Kincaid is 100% even if he is back. Not sure how to feel about it as we’re a different offense when he plays but don’t want him gone for the season either. 
 

tough spot.

Yeah.....we need him desperately, but we need him more for the Playoffs.  The problem is, we have a long way to go to clinch a Playoff spot so we need him now too.  But he isn't healthy and you risk putting him out long term if you rush him back.  

 

There are no right answers here, I'm afraid.  Just an awful year for injuries.  It's just not injuries, but it's bad injuries to many of our key players.  Frustrating.

What I'd give to have Bruce in his prime on this team. A guy that size moving that quickly and with so much power... I've never seen anyone like that, except maybe Myles Garrett. Thurman and Kelly were amazing, loved Biscuit, Talley, and Reed, but Bruce was on a different level altogether. If there was a HOF for HOF players, he would be in it. 

[Steptide]

Not sure our pass rush, or lack thereof, really matters much this week. Burrow is one of the fastest qbs to get the ball out. I'm more more concerned for the secondary

It's simply not realistic or fair to want another Bruce. I agree tho, it's something that would transform the team

I think this week with Knox and Hawes, we're ok at TE. We need some WR work this week and hopefully in the 1st qtr. We need deep slants, deep middle and red zone shots. Let em stack the box from the go and put up 14 on em. We can resort to pounding the rock and hitting the backs when we need to.

Fair enough, give me a Myles Garrett.
