Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 Bills Mafia better be planning on kidnapping Tre White, taking him to an undisclosed location, and wrapping him in bubble tape for 2 weeks.
row_33 Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 I will sit there and watch and take the maximum punishment this team dishes out to me for 46 years now

I don’t want any of those important players exposed to 16 chances for injuries. This home especially true playing against a real NFL defense instead of the vanilla pro bowl defense of preseason game 4. 1 injury and it’s a nightmare. 2 scoring drives and it’s meaningless. Again, our 2nd best offensive output of the season was off of a bye week. I guess I can keep saying it over and over but no one will ever convince me that this is a good idea. You can stick your hand near a fire and not get burned. You can stick your hand near a fire and get burned. The outcome doesn’t make it a good decision to stick your hand near the fire. Well perhaps they should also just lock themselves in the house this week too. It isn't worth risking getting in a car accident on the way to practice. A practice that also isn't worth it because they could get injured there. There is a 4.1% chance of getting an injury in a football game that keeps you out of the next game according to the statistics. A car accident where someone gets injured happens every 14 seconds according to statistic. Someone dies from a car accident every 12 minutes. Stop fearing injury.

Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 4 hours ago, Kirby Jackson said: I don’t like it personally. There is NO upside imo. What do you guys think? They are a young team but I would sit every starter i could. Not worth the injuries and no different than a bye week, let em sit. 4 hours ago, TroutDog said: Ugh. I suspect I get McD’s thinking in the aspect of all games are important, particularly the next. I understand that but I also get the big picture and would much rather the guys who are critical or dinged-up had a week off. except that this game has no importance at all, all that matters now is game one in the Playoffs.

Athletes are creatures of habit and so there’s value in keeping them in their routine. It’s going to look really dumb if someone important goes down though. no different than a bye game.
eball Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 There are two sides to every coin. I don’t personally like it but I can understand wanting to keep the starters in rhythm also. Just need to keep our fingers crossed.
SirAndrew Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 We could make a run in the playoffs, but aren’t a realistic contender for winning the Super Bowl. If we were a contender with an experienced QB, I’d say sit the starters. Our guys need experience, and Allen is just as likely to get hurt next preseason. It’s not all about this postseason, it’s about building a sustainable future. Getting reps helps with that. If someone does get hurt, are we really going to say that’s the reason we didn’t win the Super Bowl? This is all about the big picture, not just this postseason.
GETTOTHE50 Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 So stupid. An offensive lineman could get pushed into josh Allen during a running play too. there are many ways in which the starters could get injured. dumb.

That output was also against the Dolphins. Which is the same team we had our best output against. And it was on the road. so we did worse against them when we had rest.
dakrider Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 Offense definitely needs to work on some things. But any player that is a little bit injured should sit. At least lets hope Daboll doesn't call a real conservative game otherwise whats the point?
Bakin Posted December 24, 2019 Posted December 24, 2019 Meh. The argument can be made from either position.

Kind of a reward for the PS guys plus the regular inactives. I think it's crazy that MLB expands their rosters so much. I think there is good reason to think the NFL rosters should have a couple more active rosters spots, but nothing like what MLB does.

If it was the difference in the 5 seed or 6 seed then no. If the division was still at stake, of course not. If the Bills win 52-0 or lose 52-0 they are in the exact same spot.

How about winning is contagious? winning is about putting in the work? i obviously agree and am a bit torn on the issue myself. I just don’t see the analogues.

Here are some stars that have missed games this year because of injury: Dalvin Cook, Chris Carson, Drew Brees, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Julio Jones, JJ Watt, Pat Peterson, Patrick Mahomes, and Alvin Kamara. I could name dozens more but won’t. Every single one of those guys was injured WHILE playing NFL football. If you don’t think that injuries happen in NFL games I don’t know what to tell you. Sticking your fingers in your ears yelling “la la la la la la la la” doesn’t change the risk of playing this game at this level. They have ZERO to gain!!!!! This isn’t complicated. All that can happen is bad stuff. If they win 52-0 and look like a machine what advantages do they get in their championship pursuit? 6 minutes ago, Bakin said: How about winning is contagious? winning is about putting in the work? i obviously agree and am a bit torn on the issue myself.

It isn’t real. 1

Now list all the players that haven't missed a game due to injury. Of course injury is a risk. Everything in life is a risk unless you want to put yourself in a bubble. Then again that's a risk because your house can burn down on top of your bubble. You can get injured doing anything, anywhere, anytime. Stop worrying about it.
