Absolutely. The entire team will have to step up. Defense needs to bring its "A" game. The Bills need a strong performance running the ball with Singletary. Minnesota barely beat Washington last week. This is a second straight road game for them. The Vikings are good, but they are very beatable.

The Vikings are good.  But, not 7-1 good.  They are very well coached and playing great.  They also have had a soft schedule and played 3 back up QB's.

 

We can beat them without Josh, but, yes it will be a tough game.  Agreed on the D and need some starters back.

 

Dalvin Cook worries me.  Not sure we can stop him.

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.

 

 

I agree and am leaning towards this.  Sort of hope he sits out and does not have long term elbow issues.

I believe Allen's actual quote was, "yeah, you know, it's a week-to-week league and I just want to do what I can to help this team win football games. Go Bills."

Josh Allen Not Practicing Wednesday, Unlikely to Play Against Vikings

NFL

Nov 9, 2022, 12:11 pm (updated: Nov 9, 2022, 5:11 pm)

Bills star quarterback Josh Allen will not practice Wednesday as he recovers from a right elbow injury he suffered at the end of the Week 9 loss to the Jets.

Buffalo head coach Sean McDermott said “we'll see” when asked about Allen's status for this Sunday against the Vikings.

McDermott's response fits what the Pro Football Docs detailed yesterday: playing Allen would risk further injury to his elbow and likely isn't worth the risk for the team. 

Allen's elbow injury is not season-ending and will not require surgery at the moment. However, if he plays with a partial tear and is hit in a similar way to his Week 9 injury, this could turn into a full UCL tear and require Tommy John surgery.

Buffalo cannot win the Super Bowl in this November matchup, but they could lose it if they play Allen and he further injures his elbow, according to the Pro Football Docs.

That is why the Bills are likely to take a cautious approach and start Case Keenum against his former team this week.

Sean McDermott: "We believe in Case Keenum."

Buffalo faces the Browns in Week 11 and the Lions in Week 12, thus it would not be surprising to see Allen miss the next three weeks to allow the elbow to fully recover before two divisional opponents in Week 13 and 14.

When Allen suffered a UCL sprain in his rookie season, 2018, he missed four games. The hope is this injury will not keep him out that long, but Buffalo would be smart to treat it with the same caution.

Hard to argue with this...

Makes sense. I wish Josh wasn't missing off the back of a poor passing performance though. It's a bit like losing before a bye - it's horrible having to wait to try and shake it off.

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

Huh?  I mean, anyone can put something in quotes.  Where and to whom was it supposedly said?

 

When has Allen ever said anything to generate controversy and bulletin board material before a game?

What a garbage OPINION based post coming across as fact.

We don’t know it’s a partial tear though…

No, this is stupid. At any point in his career if he takes a similar hit he risks a full tear. Waiting one, two three weeks does not change this...

 

So he should never have seen the field in 2018 after a partial UCL tear that kept him out 5 games?  C'Mon man.  Most Grade II sprains heal without surgery.
