YoloinOhio Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 (edited) Is it still the ribs or something else that he's been inactive? The Bills have no inside running game as Shady and Bush are both edge runners. Gillislee is an option but they haven't given him the ball in the run game for some reason either. JWill is 6'0 225 and I'm mystified they have kept him on th shelf unless he's still hurt. As far as I know he is practicing... Edited October 28, 2016 by YoloinOhio
Augie Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 I don't have an answer, but I agree it certainly would be nice to have someone running hard north and south. Let's blame Roman for the convenience....
Not at the table Karlos Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Last I heard he was out with injured ribs. That was a week ago.
YoloinOhio Posted September 21, 2016 Author Posted September 21, 2016 Ok well if it's ribs I sure hope he's active this week. Quick Twitter search shows he's been practicing in full and not limited.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 For some reason, I thought he was suspended to start the year for a DUi. But I could be confusing him with one of the other dozen guys on our roster who were facing suspensions. I wonder if JW could be the ace up Lynn's sleeve.
4merper4mer Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 I wonder if JW could be the ace up Lynn's sleeve. I hope so but he is probably more like the 4 of diamonds up Lynn's sleeve.

But might as well have been.
Augie Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Ribs sound familiar, but I forgot about the DUI. Did he get that put off until next year?
Doc Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Probably the ribs. But I still have no idea why Gillislee isn't getting Bush's playing time, or why Bush is even on the team?
NoSaint Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Ribs sound familiar, but I forgot about the DUI. Did he get that put off until next year? its in the pipeline. its not necessarily this year vs next year -- just a matter of when the nfl investigation resolves. would be pretty bills-y timing for it to become official once hes healthy this year. But I still have no idea why Gillislee isn't getting Bush's playing time bush played 2 offensive snaps on thursday night.
YoloinOhio Posted September 21, 2016 Author Posted September 21, 2016 Probably the ribs. But I still have no idea why Gillislee isn't getting Bush's playing time, or why Bush is even on the team?i wouldn't be surprised if JWill is activated and Bush inactive since we have Tate to return kicks. But I thought I heard Lynn was the one who wanted Bush (heh)
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 bush played 2 offensive snaps on thursday night. I didn't even realize Bush was active on Thursday. Gillisie looked pretty solid-- his little catch and run on that TD was quite nifty.

YoloinOhio Posted September 21, 2016 Author Posted September 21, 2016 Can he pass protect?he could in college
MAJBobby Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Another guy I want to see touches from this year, I want to see if I can move on from Shady next year and have those young legs already on the roster.
Houston's #1 Bills Fan Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 its in the pipeline. its not necessarily this year vs next year -- just a matter of when the nfl investigation resolves. would be pretty bills-y timing for it to become official once hes healthy this year. bush played 2 offensive snaps on thursday night. Which makes absolutely no sense. In two games with Buffalo, he has three rushing attempts for -4 yards. Awesome addition to the team. He needs to be cut and bring in another power runner. Wonder if the Karlos Williams kid is available?
Webster Guy Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Touchdown Mike and Shady are all we need in our backfield right now. If Palmer shreds the D like Fitz did, and there's no reason he shouldn't, we are going to be in passing mode early in the game. I'm more worried about Lynn and Tyrod cooking up some fun plays on offense to make the game watchable.
BillsFan130 Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Great question lol. He should be playing. Who knows what the bills are thinking by keeping two edge rushers with no power back
NoSaint Posted September 21, 2016 Posted September 21, 2016 Which makes absolutely no sense. In two games with Buffalo, he has three rushing attempts for -4 yards. Awesome addition to the team. He needs to be cut and bring in another power runner. Wonder if the Karlos Williams kid is available? we will see -- im surprised they kept him on the opening day 53 and then seem to be shutting him down with almost no touches.
