    Wow! Think this will happen again?

    Incredibly, 19 of Buffalo's 22 starters played in all 16 games. Bills starters missed just six man games to injury.

    That from the USA Today.

    I think that may easily be a team record. Not likely that that happens again next season. Great year injury wise.
    Replace Donahoe with Modrak and fire the entire coaching staff!

    GO BILLS!!!

    I give some credit for GW for this. He did not kill them in training camp. Having Drew rather than Job also pads this stat.

      That's the scary thing. We could sign a couple great free agents, have another great draft and have a promising year short circuited next year due to injuries. Keep your fingers crossed.

            Nah. We seem to have fairly durable guys unlike Os, Fina, RJ, and others.

            I doubt it will be as good as it was this season. We must have led the league in injuries to starters. But I suspect we'll have a decent year next year injury wise.

            Funny to talk about Drew though v. RJ. I would doubt that if he takes 54 sacks again, that he'll play all 16. It just doesn't happen. He's durable and always has been. He's a trooper in that way. But he's over 30 now and no spring chicken. He needs to learn to get rid of the ball just like Rob did. A good chunk of the sacks that he took were the result of his own inability or knack of not throwing it away. In that way I see little difference between the two QBs. He'll have to keep that # down if he wants and expects to not miss any games.

                Yeah. Probably. Seems like everything else has something to do w/ me. May as well prematurely take credit for all of our injuries next season.

                  I agree WYS they need to cut down on the # of hits Drew takes, and the blame falls on both Drew and the O line on that one!

                    Right. Drew didn't exactly help his own cause this year. I suspect that next season's OL will be right up there w/ the best we've ever had though and for sure one of the best that is capable of being put together in this era of FAcy.

                    I wonder how many other teams will start the exact same OL as they did this year.

                      Rob learned to get rid of the ball? When? When they were off this week??

                          Oy!

                          Alright, bad sentence structure!

                          Just like Rob 'had to learn.' He never did and still hasn't. Rob would be a good RB who didn't fumble I suppose.

                          Excuuuuuse me! LOL

                            EE,

                            I like your nagging.

                            Will you be my second wife? Please!

                              If we average all the man-game injuries in GW's two years I would bet it's right smack dab in the middle of the pack. Which can only mean one thing.

                              And I don't know what it is.
