Ed Oliver suffers ankle injury in season opener

[Woodman]

Buffalo Bills (https://www.buffalorumblings.com/) defensive tackle Ed Oliver (https://twitter.com/Edoliver_11) was injured on a fourth-down play in the second quarter of the Bills’ dominant victory over the Los Angeles Rams. (http://therams.com/)
Oliver was able to walk off the field on his own and immediately went to the bench to be evaluated by team trainers and staff. Buffalo announced shortly after that he was probable to return with an undefined ankle injury.
Oliver returned to the game early in the third quarter, but exited again shortly after and didn’t return.
After the game, Oliver told reporters that he “will be fine” and that he just “rolled over” his ankle (https://twitter.com/BroadcastingBri/status/1568079908357951492?s=20&t=gM859_mM3RdelP_pgH_MEQ).

Hope so. Glad he's going to have a couple of extra days to recover, and we have great depth on the d-line.

That's our area of greatest improvement imo.

Just make sure he's full go before he plays .... sounds like he'll be fine.

The extra recovery and prep time is nice but 11 days between games is brutal. Most teams will have played twice before we play again.

When you're viewed as marquee that's going to happen, like it or not the NFL is a business.

It does give them some time to work on their punt game. :D

There is cleanup to do as far as turnovers go as well.

Sometimes teams have let-downs though. Think about it. It's all this hype and build-up. Lots of people are picking us to win the SB. We're playing the champs. There's all this pomp and circumstance to kick off the season, and then they raise their banner. And then the game starts and we pretty much kicked their ass.

Then it just... stops. Nothing. Sit back for 11 days and watch everyone else play twice.

No I get it ..... you gotta handle it though.

The Titans were up 13-0 at the half and the Giants were still able to contain Henry to...

Why can't we especially if we get a lead?

Surely our DL is better than the Giants?

meh. Vrabel is NFL's joke of the week for the way he lost to the Giants at their home opener. He ought to be embarrassed the way he lost.

His game management/coaching/whatever you want to call it, at the end of the game was an absolute abomination.

[kgun12]

His game management has always been and issue. The team wins in spite him.

Oh, good, We get to play a Titans team with a chip on their shoulder. That worked out well last time...

This game won't even be close.

Bills will beat them down worse than they beat down the Rams.

You heard it here first.

Yeah, I dont want to jinx it, but no AJ Brown and we have a reworked DL.

You act like Allen and the bills don’t have a chip on their shoulder from the titans the last 2 season… or the playoffs.. but of course be negative

they had a chip on their shoulder last year... they still lost to the Titans and lost in the playoffs to the Chiefs. But of course ignore facts that don't fit your narrative....

The Titans are 9.5 point underdogs for Monday night.

That's about right.

The goal is 1-0 .... having said that I'd love to bury them.

Have some faith.
