[RevWarRifleman]

Put in Jimbo, he'll get us through. By the way, bring Thurman too so we can have a running game!!!

FWIW Von Miller in his presser said he was over at Allen's house and didn't even know he was hurt until doing his podcast and all the comments were asking about Allen.  Von said Allen has been his same upbeat prankster joking around self all week. 

Oh sure, Josh is just over there having fun, playing games while we're out here FREAKING OUT!  DOESN'T HE KNOW HOW SERIOUS THIS IS!?!

way overrated. Not that difficult. it's still the Bills offense. 

Exactly. Who have the Vikings really beat? The Dolphins minus Tua? The Cardinals, Lions, Packers, Saints, Commanders are all garbage. The only quality opponent they faced (Eagles) destroyed them and held them to 7 points. I think they are paper tigers. 
 

Meanwhile, the Bills have wins against the Ravens, Chiefs, Rams, and Titans. A much more impressive resume. People are foolish if they think we can’t win. I’m not saying it’s a certainty, but def possible. Keenum obviously has chemistry with Diggs, the running game is better than people think, and the Defense & pass rush is tops in the league. 
 

Edit: this is all hypothetical because Allen WILL play.

We need to stop this "Tre is afraid to play" narrative B___S___ right now.

Are people saying that lol?  Tre white not yet in game shape may not be better than elam or benford or Dane Jackson right now that’s likely all it is

Josh with the Marty McFly hat

 

Bills Media: "Will you be out this week?"

 

Allen: "No"

 

Media "No?"

 

Allen: "yeah, what are you, deaf and stupid? I said no"

 

Now why don't you guys make a tree and get out a here

I think there's a feeling that he is still favoring the other leg. Apparently that happens a lot when people have had these serious knee injuries, there's that mental block that it's going to re-injure so it makes them hesitant. It actually makes sense

Keenum looked like ***** in the preseason.  His arm looked pretty weak.  The guy has some moxie but not a lot else.  But I agree about the Vikings.  They don't really pass the smell test as a real good team.  And I agree that Josh should and will play.  The guy is like Jimbo.  He is a tough football player.  And football players play when nicked up.  

 

As for Tre, anyone have some real scoop on his status?  The Bills have been so tight lipped about things.  You really have to wonder if he plays much if at all this season.  But Benford Elam and Jackson better be ready to cover Jefferson and Thielen.

They can't win with Keenum by putting the weight on his shoulders.  Keenum can't hurdle players, can't outrun LBs, can't throw 70 yd lasers, can't juke DBs. Keenum can't outplay Cousins. Keenum will need assistance!! 

Maybe lots of the "push the QB forward" plays...

This seems pretty straightforward knowing how McDermott approaches injuries. If he doesn't practice tomorrow,  he will be OUT. If he does, it's still 50/50. If he practices Friday,  he's playing.  I fully expect him to not practice tomorrow,  be put, then be back against the Browns.

I fully expect him not to play.  It doesn't make sense for him to play.

 

If he sits on Sunday, we will not lose the season.

If he plays on Sunday and makes things worse, we COULD lose the season.

 

No brainer.

Yes due to some of the stuff in there...I don't see Allen saying he'd love to go hang 40 on someone

My concern is, if he does play, he'll be overhyped going off those comments. Add in compensating for his arm and poor last five quarters, it adds up to issues on offense again.

There is no way he said this. Quote the actual interview or I don't believe it.
