Rank top 5 bills we need healthy for playoffs

[BillsFooteball]

Great win yesterday!! Such a strange season all around but if bills get in playoffs (looking good now) I’ll take the bills at their best over anyone.

Injuries are part of the game across the league but in order for the bills to make a run they have guys they can’t lose for a playoff run. We have seen this with replacements end bills seasons in recent years.

 

In order rank your top 5 guys bills can’t afford to lose to injury in order to make a run this year?
  Here are mine.

 

1. MVP Allen. If this isn’t everyone’s #1 then stop now there is no debate. We need Superman all the way.  No player is more important to team success then josh.

now the fun…

 

2. Cook. Elite RB- Has games where he carried the offense. 
 

3. Benford. Been 6+ weeks now where he is clearly back and playing elite. The star of the defense 

 

4. Bosa- Playoffs you need someone who can make that game changing play or close the game by getting to the QB. Bosa has been is best option for that. 
 

5. Kincaid- A healthy Kincaid means everything to this passing offense and opens it up for others. Without kincaid I just never feel good about 3rd and 7 or greater. 
 

Honorable mentions: Bishop-playing great and would be huge drop off if out. 
Shaq I just feel so much better about run defense when he plays, best bills LB this season. 

 

Long bruising season, if the bills don’t have a shot at division but will be in playoffs come week 18 (likely scenario) you take that as bye week which I personally would love especially with 3 of the 5 guys I noted and a honorable mention  have injury concerns and history.

I'd put Ed Oliver over Bosa personally  if there is a chance of that. 

 

But otherwise agree it is:

 

1. Allen

2. Benford

3. Cook

4. Oliver

5. Kincaid

I think a healthy Oliver (not saying it's likely) would be more important than Kincaid, given the depth at DT vs TE.

the problem is would oliver even be effective if he came back

Close call, but I think I’d put Bosa 4 and Oliver 5. Backups at TE are better than DL backups. 
 

Our last few playoff losses have been due to defense being unable to hold a lead. 
 

Need a winning pass rusher.

Love seeing Bishop on this list.

 

We all need to appreciate the leap he made this season.
