This season just gets more rough. He's gonna be broken in a couple years if they don't start protecting him

Screw that, let’s dump all RBs and just let Josh do it all! /s

[Paulus]

Well, maybe they need to invest in some more Swiss Cheese to play OL.

Way to protect your bosses’ quarter-billion investment McBeane…

Way to protect Josh by keeping him running so he doesn't get hurt. We may lose games, but we'll keep him safe. Nice

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

 

Not damned if you do. We'd have more success if our Oline wasnt trash

Er, we put up six points against the Jags WITH Josh!

Panthers have Cam Newton.. NEWTON!! As in fig arm… the Bills D should stop them completely. I could be wrong but come on they aren’t good.

If we keep drafting enough D-Line, we'll find guards who don't suck

Refusal to run the ball! 

[Nextmanup]

This game is a blowout if Josh isn't playing 110% balls to the wall football.

 

His running is also one of the most dangerous things we do on offense.

 

If he gets hurt, so be it.  Can't live in fear and he should play his game.

They should have run him more LAST game. In the 1st half, how about the RBs doing it. Otherwise, the Bills need to win. No knock on McD. Josh is a baller.

 

The boot could just be to make sure it heals faster and as extra cautious measure. We'll know in a day or two. Could be minor.

Agreed but he hurt it on that long run downfield on the sidelines with two Bucs. One of which sliding his ankle with him. Can't blame oline there.

 

Edit: maybe you were referring to the big picture tho... and agreed.

The O line has not been good at all but when you never run, it puts the line at a huge disadvantage.

Didn’t look like a high ankle sprain which are the worst and he wouldn’t have been able to play. I doubt he misses time. 
Btw he hurt it running down field, this wasn’t because of the oline. 

To many runs for Allen today.. he was getting hit hard on almost every one and that’s not counting the hits in the pocket.. they should have run the ball more with RB.. they did work the few times they did it. 

[transient]

Should have run him like that Monday night, then he could have sat out this game to let it heal after we beat the Pats***. Watching him run like that tonight was salt in a wound. Daboll should be retroactively fired for losing us the Pats*** game. 

[Bangarang]

It’s criminal how this kid has to run for his life on a weekly basis. Beane needs to fix the OL this off-season and I don’t care what it costs.

Exactly. The finally took the chains off Josh and he brought us back

I mean they're a big part of us not having a running game outside of Josh, and that was a big reason he was running like he was.

agree… we should win that game  with Trubisky in there, full stop.

That really cost us in the first half. We aren't a great running team but you cant not run ever

Yes big picture

Josh can’t do it all indefinitely, him running the ball so much is going to get him a shorter than anticipated NFL career. You ever see TB12 out there taking those hits when he was 25? ***** No, it’s not called the NOT FOR LONG league for nothing. Get a ***** OL and a running back already.

That’s a stretch. Josh should be running even if he was playing behind a better line. Less injuries to QB happen on scrambles than do from hits in the pocket.
