Matt Milano #hammywatch - update - officially off the injury report

[ehfeuh57]

Dress him

 

Play him in limited or more role until he pulls his hammy again

 

This game is more important than healing fully

Not sure I agree with that.

People are making this game more than it actually is.

 

I think this game has a personal element to it that people really want to win.

 

Yeah, the chefs are a team that record could matter when all is said and done, but frankly I would much rather have Milano for as many games as possible at full capacity than for this game specifically.

Kinda weird, last season I thought we should sit Milano for the Rams game since it wasn't as critical a game and it would give him time to heal—the overwhelming response here was that every game is important and he should play if there was any chance he could go. No sitting and resting.

 

Seems the opposite this year. Huge game with playoff seeding implications, but now people think he should rest?

 

Why were people less concerned last year about keeping Milano healthy for the long term?

we are an emotional mess as fans. and our Bills #newfoundtrendingupsuccess has been weird to process for many of us

 I blames the covid thing for anything last year

 And Milano will know if he can play

Love to see more great plays from Klein and that red haired beast from ST.

Trust the process. just do it.

This is the same account who knew about Spencer brown starting 

 

 

I have no clue where you found this guy, and why his tweets get no attention, but he's a helluva resource

They’ve been using poyer on TEs mostly 

 

Brown going from limited to full and Rousseau going from DNP to full is good news.

Positive that both Dane Jackson and Taron Johnson are listed as "full"

 

I don't like Poyer and Tre White still being "limited"

 

Epenesa looks like an addition to the injury report as "limited"

[Dr.Sack]

I expect Neal or Johnson to play in place of Milano in certain sets. With more run heavy personnel I expect Tyler. Milano should be a game day decision and play in a limited role if he dresses, that way we keep KC guessing.

I hope that's sarcasm

Why would you expect that, Johnson is the nickel corner and almost always on the field as the nickel corner.

If Milano can't go say hello to Klein

Whereupon Klein will say a quick hello (and goodbye) to Kelce.

Maybe because we're not undefeated at this point like last year? I mean realistically that game mattered even less since it was an NFC opponent.

This might go on record for the stupidest comment made on these forums....

[Dr.Mantis_Toboggan]

I like the idea of healthy combination of Klein, Dodson, and/or Smith rather than a gimpy Milano who is risking more serious injury, still early in the season.

I trust McDermott and Frazier will be able to alternate between those 3 situationally to fill in for Milano sufficiently. Plus Edmunds will have to step up in coverage vs Kelce and earn that extension.

Vibes to Milano… need him back on the field against KC. Dude has been a beast this year. 

Love the way he plays. Just too bad the guy can't stay healthy. That was the major concern resigning him. 

[Back2Buff]

This is exactly why someone should have been drafted to replace Milano, something a lot of people said before he re-signed in Buffalo.

 

The guy continues to constantly get hurt.  Now we can go all year with an excuse for him, even when he comes back in 2 or so weeks.  Another terrible contract, they starting to add up.

 

Rinse and repeat every year with Milano.  It's comical at this point, like Will Fuller being out again.

Not shocking, especially if they just use him on 3rd/4th down situations which is what truly matters against an offense like KC.

 

If he does play and we get a win in KC, I'd be totally fine shutting him down for the Titans game and letting him sit through the bye week to presumably be ready for the stretch run and healthy.

Milano in a "roll."  Sounds like an Italian sandwich.

I doubt they have Klein covering Kelce.

 

At least, I hope they've learned their lesson that they have to rework the D slightly when Klein is playing and not just try to plug Klein in for Milano in "next man up" fashion.  They seemed to as last season went on.
