Gross

[TPS]

That's not good.

On the bright side, I'm happy to see Croom active, which makes me think we'll see a lot of Clay, Thomas, and Croom in the passing game.

[Chandler#81]

Has Davis been active since we signed him??

[26CornerBlitz]

[Virgil]

Wtf?!

[GunnerBill]

Vontae has looked bad. McDermott has been as critical as you can ever be in the McDermott style. 

 

Big challenge for Phillip Gaines today.

Maybe it's a concern for his previous groin injury because of the field conditions in the rain. 

 

Chris Brown is on WGR saying it's related to this.

Teller inactive... Ducassee has to have some really interesting black mail to continue starting on this line.

[Kelly the Dog]

Interesting that Foster is active. And I fully expected Lee to be one of the three TEs. A lot of 2-3 TEs today in the pass game.

Looks like McDermott was smart to prepare for Lamar Jackson... 

[Virgil]

This worries me. He was our Gaines replacement and we were a far worse defense without Gaines on the field. 

[GunnerBill]

Other than that... Stanford and Ray Ray are injured... Teller and McDermott are the 8th and 9th OL so expected. Lee surprises me a bit because Croom and Logan are both poor blockers.

 

Vontae is a surprise but not a shock and I have no idea who Ryan Lewis is we pick him up off waivers? Anyone know where he came from? 

[BuffaloBillyG]

Wow. That is a shocker.

 

On the other side we are only 1 Flacco injury away from Lamar Jackson playing full time. A bit surprused RGIII is inactive after his good preseason.

Yes, Lewis is the guy we got after cut down from the Patties.

He went to Pitt

Either he is not yet fully recovered from his prior injury or he will not be the player he once was, even when healthy.  The Bills needed a starting CB in the offseason, and if there was this kind of risk with Davis, I would have hoped that our medical staff would have identified it.  If they did, it was borderline reckless to think that Davis would be ready to start the season or hold up during the season.  I think we could have done better with the free agent dollars, at least sign a CB that was healthy and would play.

Ahhh I remember him. He had an INT off Watson when they beat Clemson. Has he only been on practice squads since coming into the league? 

[Mark Vader]

Philip Gaines it is. Good luck to him today.

[gjv001]

I wonder if Davis wants to play anymore.

[MJS]

Really surprising. I bet we move on from him unless the coaches think he just needs a few more weeks to come back from his injury and shake off the rust.
