Re: Bradham Kyle injuries
Asking the same thing before you posted this. I don't know why the results of an MRI on Monday aren't known by now. They should have been out yesterday.
Usually they wait this long to release it if the news is bad.http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/sho...s-haters/page3

Re: Bradham Kyle injuries
Let's hope so. I'm thinking that if he were fine they'd have said so by now and said he's questionable for Sunday.
If Kyle's got a season ending knee injury then in the other thread talking about what we have to build on, if Kyle's out for the season then he won't be 100% next season at 32. Pending Dareus' status I think we could then add DT to our issues list.
Kyle's a beast, losing him on the DL is like losing Alonso at LB.http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/sho...s-haters/page3

Re: Bradham Kyle injuries
Not for the Bills. As the Bills website is one of the slowest it seems to deliver news/stories. Yet you'd think one of the national guys (see Rappaport or Schefter) would have reported something if there was any news to report so who knows. I'm hoping it's good news as an injury to Kyle Williams could make the chance of winning tough as while think we tend to over rate him he is still an above average player at his position. An injury to Bradham does hurt too but let's not forget the defense was decent in Week 1 without him.Originally posted by MitchMurrayDowntown View PostLast edited by The Jokeman; 10-01-2014, 09:59 AM.Comment

Re: Bradham Kyle injuries
Why do you think that he's just average?Originally posted by The Jokeman View Post
It's funny, I was just thinking the opposite, that he's one of the best DT's that we've ever had. Pat Williams was another fairly recent one.

Re: Bradham Kyle injuries
I said above average. I think he's helped a lot playing with Dareus and Mario. As to me Kyle is at his best pushing the pocket and pursing the QB. Yet you ask him to stand pat and clog the lane he isn't as reliable. Also I don't see him athletic enough to say run down the line and stop a back from turning the corner. As of the three Dareus, Mario and Kyle that's how I'd rank them in terms of value for this team and importance. Again he's above average but not the best thing we have on the D-line which imagine most others do.Originally posted by Fletch View PostComment

Re: Bradham Kyle injuries
Problem with Dareus is that 10% of the time he's fantastic, 40% of the time he's simply good/average, and 50% of the time you don't even know whether he's in the game or not.
Not much different with Mario. You don't hear **** for three games about Mario then he has a bunch of sacks, pressures, and other contributions in two games, usually not against our toughest offensive opponents. Kyle's name several times.
Last season everyone was talking about how Mario came back, but of his 13 sacks 4 and a half of them were in one game against a QB playing miserably and three were against Miami, 2 vs. Cleveland. Mario needs to step up more in big games.
Dareus just needs to step up more period.
Kyle as a DT was less than 3 sacks behind Mario. 3 and a half were against Brady, Brees, and Roeth. That's saying quite a bit, especially since that's Mario's specialty.
I'm not sure you caught it, but last season one of those stat sites, I forget which one, had Mario rated as the worst Bills linemen at "setting the edge" as they like to say.
I don't know what it means since I've never played Madden, but Kyle is rated 4th best DT by them. http://www.easports.com/madden-nfl/n...player-ratings
Pro Football Focus:
Kyle Williams, DT, +7.8
Breakdown: Before Marcel Dareus arrived Kyle Williams was a regular at this kind of performance. Here he broke out one of his better games, powering through or swimming around the Chargers offensive line like they weren’t there all game long. Was unlucky not to be rewarded with a sack.
Pro Football Focus ranks both Dareus and Williams in the top 10 at their respective positions against the run.
This does not seem to agree with your assessment.http://www.billszone.com/fanzone/sho...s-haters/page3

Re: Bradham Kyle injuries
Just a hunch from watching players carted off the field or failure to return to games after suffering knee injuries. From all my years of watching football I've never seen a guy leave a game with a knee injury and return the next week..........a knee injury to a football player is never good news. I could be wrong tho........I dont think I will be.Originally posted by THATHURMANATOR View PostLast edited by Yasgur's Farm; 10-01-2014, 12:42 PM.You can call me streetkingsComment
