Player Watch List (Injured/Dinged Up)

[Cntrygal]

****Updated*****

Some of these guys played in week 3, and there's a few added to the list from today's game - not including the guys that were in/out due to the heat/cramping. How healthy can we hope to get before the next three games, teams that usually play us tough?

We go to Baltimore, host Pittsburgh and travel to KC before the bye.



Josh Allen (QB) Hand?

Mitch Morse (C) Elbow

Gabe Davis (WR) Ankle

Jake Kumerow (WR) Ankle

Reggie Gilliam (FB) Elbow

Dawson Knox (TE) Foot

Spencer Brown (T) Illness (heat?)

Ryan Bates (RG) Concussion Protocol

Dane Jackson (CB) Neck

Cam Lewis (CB) Forearm

Christian Benford (CB) Hand (having surgery)

Jordan Poyer (FS) Foot

Matt Milano (OLB) Neck

Ed Oliver (DT) Ankle

Jordan Phillips (DT) Hamstring

Tim Settle (DT) Calf


PUP

Tre'Davious White (CB) ACL (eligible to start team practices after week 4)


IR

Micah Hyde (S) Neck

Tommy Doyle (OT) ACL

[ParanoidAndroid]

We had been exceptionally healthy the last two seasons. This is the law of averages making up for it.

Unreal.

After Josh, the guy we need back the most is Poyer. We missed our All-Pro safeties big time, today.

Really missed Morse today.

[Novacane]

Poyer and Morse were close this week. Hopefully they are back next week.

[Cntrygal]

Poyer and Morse were close this week. Hopefully they are back next week.

I was wondering how close, since they were still "limited" at practice on Friday. Wednesday's report will be interesting.

[Novacane]

We need at least Poyer and Morse back for Baltimore. If Phillips and Oliver are out this week I'd sit them another week even if ready vs Pitt. They suck. Hopefully most everyone is ready for KC.

[TheConsigliere]

Really missed Morse today.

Agreed.

He is the leader on our OL and they looked lost today in picking up blitzes.

[Prov401]

As alluded to above, Poyer and Morse were our biggest misses yesterday. Need everyone back but our safety/o line depth is most concerning.

[Forward_Lateral]

Agreed.

He is the leader on our OL and they looked lost today in picking up blitzes.

I mean, they were down to their last dressed O-lineman by the end of the game. 3rd string center, 3rd string RG and I don't even know who was playing RT at the end.

[Cntrygal]

When they showed some of those jerseys heading to the huddle - I was like "who the hell is that?"

[YardRat]

Jesus. We're going to have to raid the cornerback rest homes to just put guys on the field.

[Forward_Lateral]

I doubt he doesn't go to IR if his hand is actually broken, but is a corner allowed to play with one of those clubs on his hand?

[Canadian'eh!]

They can play through it. Probably a soft cast.

I remember Gilmore doing it. Not very well but doing it.

[Mace]

That list is hideous.

No Bates with a head injury ? Was sure he'd end up concussed.

[YardRat]

No Bates with a head injury ? Was sure he'd end up concussed.

It was probably just his back acting up....

[mightysimi]

Doyle should be added as well for a torn ACL

[sukie]

Enough adding… when do we subtract from the list… ?

[Woodman]

Really missed Morse today.
Morse was absolutely the most important missing player.

Mitch calls the blocking assignments our backups were abysmal.

[Cntrygal]

Good week to rest the injured.

Good week to rest the injured.

Just hope we dont overlook the Steelers because we play you-know-who the week after. And I hope no one says that we dont do that, because this team has a history of overlooking opponents.

An extra week sounds reasonable but i never count anyone out.

Without TJ Watt their defense is a totally different thing. They scare no one.


They won in OT in the first game of the year against Cincy. The first two paragraphs in the AP write up for the game tells it all (https://www.espn.com/nfl/recap?gameId=401437634)....



The Pittsburgh Steelers (https://www.espn.com/nfl/team/_/name/pit/pittsburgh-steelers) defense began the season Sunday looking like a vulturous force, and reigning Defensive Player of the Year T.J. Watt (https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/3045282/tj-watt) was the chief disruptor.

Then Watt walked off injured in the fourth quarter, his left arm hanging limply at this side, casting serious doubt on when Pittsburgh might look so fearsome again.



Then they went and lost to toothless NE, Cleveland and NY Jets. Not exactly the gauntlet of tough teams.

Pickett will be much more exciting than Trubisky (bless his heart) and may even make the game a little bit closer than the spread predicts.

But, in the end, the Bills will win this game quite easily. If they don’t, it is problem.

This game is the perfect opportunity to rest some of the hobbling, and give some players further down the depth chart some playing time. While also starting to bring along some that have been out for a game or more.

Calling Poyer and Knox “out” is smart (although unexpected). Waiting until Friday to do so was probably an indication that they were not so seriously injured that it was obvious they could not play Sunday. No need to push them to play.

Edmunds should not play either, after not practicing on Friday, which will also give either Dodson and/or Bernard some playing time. It will be interesting to see who stats opposite Milano. A hamstring injury needs rest. Better to keep him out of this game to get ready for KC.

This is an excellent chance for a whole week of rest for three of the Bills key starters, Knox, Player and Edmunds, before the huge KC game

Ed Oliver should start to remap up in playing time, not too quickly with limited snaps, again, to be in better shape to play against KC. He has been practicing regularly, but game time is a different thing altogether.

Same with Phillips. Better to ramp him up slowly (with snaps) to test out the hamstring. He will be key (along with Oliver) in providing inside pressure against Mahomes.

Gabe Davis was not himself against Baltimore. And with McKenzie still recovering from a concussion, this game may be a great opportunity to give both some in-game rest....limiting their snap count (Gabe Davis had 97% of the offensive snaps in Baltimore) and giving the youngsters some valuable game time.

With Crowder a good candidate for injured reserve, opening up a roster spot, it’s a perfect time to move Hodgins onto the game day roster.

I expect to see a LOT of Shakir this week. He can also show if he’s reliable for punt return duty. Hodgins should get his chance to shine as well.

Going to be interesting to see the snaps count for WR’s after this game. Pittsburgh’s 21st ranked pass defense and Bill #2 ranked passing offense should give all the WR’s opportunities.

I have not listened to the whole thing yet, but on McKenzie’s weekly podcast on Go Long (https://www.golongtd.com/p/isaiah-mckenzie-show-s2-ep4-the-bills#details), they summarize “a few topics discussed”. This tidbit is concerning his health....



McKenzie was surprised the Bills held him out against Pittsburgh, but watching this blowout as a spectator was fun and he expects to return this week against Kansas City. (Even if McKenzie is still milking this concussion to get out of chores around the house with his girlfriend.)


This is fairly interesting too....


He has never sipped alcohol before in his life. Seriously. McKenzie explains why he’s always avoided booze. And if the Bills win it all? McKenzie promises he’ll drink for the first time ever.[/COLOR]

How is Phillips? He and Oliver were barely noticeable last game…tbh I’m not really sure if Oliver played or not. Jordan’s inside rush is so valuable to this team so I’m all for giving him this week off so he can be ready for GB after the bye. With our secondary and LB depth proving strong, as well as the nice D-line rotation, we have to protect Von and Jordan as their availability/health in the playoffs are paramount
