For those of us hoping it’s nothing significant, probably not a great sign for Oliver to apparently post “can’t catch a break” yesterday (before deleting the post shortly thereafter) https://x.com/thejoemarino/status/1966256629629989305

Since the beginning of last season, we must lead the league in injuries that pop up with players that finished the previous game.

But surely, you do remember last season, when 75% of our injuries consisted of players that finished the game and magically popped up on the injury report a few days later, right? I don't know how this keeps happening, but it keeps happening.

To be fair, Bills fans had seen it before. Ravens are the one team in the NFL that is an extremely difficult matchup for us. Last season, they blew us out, and it looked very, very similar for the vast majority of the game. You’d have had to be delusional to think we actually had a shot down the stretch, Josh Allen or not. Let’s be real. Allen was amazing. But the only reason he had a shot was Ed Oliver. And the fact the defense made a play was a miracle in itself, based on everything we witnessed to that point. That said… I was at a backers bar in Portland, Oregon. Left at halftime. Had nothing to do with the score, and everything to do with the fact I was with my 8 year old on a “school night”. Did I want to leave? Hell no! I got there 1.5 hours before the game to make sure I had a good seat. But my point is, we don’t know the circumstances for all of these fans. Some of them may have had valid reasons to leave when they did. And frankly, if Allen didn’t say anything about it, this wouldn’t even be a story.

Not me. I know that's a terrible thing to say, but just being honest.

I’m surprised no mention of Tyrell Shavers. I thought his story would be hyped up in last week’s episode and this week. Did not even mention him making the team. Maybe a quiet, soft spoken dude that doesn’t like interviews? guess I will leave it up since Mike deleted his. May as well have a Hard knocks finale post going somewhere.

Has not gone up on my HBO max streaming app. anyone else? last 4 episodes went up at 9pm est sharp hmm Nevermind… it’s up! 9 mins late but it’s available now

Unfortunately, simulations do not take curses into account. its why we have been here before, with simulators 😂 I refuse to get caught up in this. If/when it does happen, I will be on cloud nine. Til then, not getting my hopes up. Not doing that to myself lol

I agree. If we could have afforded it, Parsons gets you over the hump in the playoffs if the team stays relatively healthy. We are trying to make it to the Super Bowl one time. Isn't that all that matters? Don't know about the rest of you, but I would trade a SB for a few years of cap hell any day.

Wondering if we dropped Dane expecting to sign Rasul, and Miami beat us to it? (And/Or offered more)

Gilmore was good last season too, I believe.

Not according to Thigh Doctor. He says Tre White back for week 1 😮

I wish Shavers and Hamler could both make the 53.

I mean it can’t be too serious if we didn’t sign anyone despite our other guy that was battling for the CB2 spot likely starting the year on IR, right? Gotta believe that if both candidates for CB2 started the year on IR, someone else would be in the building by now…

because it’s Tre White. He has a history of major injuries, we all love the guy and would hate to see him go through it again. Outside of actual star players on the team (which Tre is not among anymore) this “overreaction” probably does not happen with anyone else
