Injuries NOT an excuse. Bills tied for 5th fewest man games lost to injury thru Week 11


Recommended Posts

Bills tied for 5th fewest man games lost to injury with only 83.

 

 

 

The difference? Many of them have been to key players unlike the last several years.

 

 

So the excuses the Bills are somehow more injured than every other team needs to stop. They are STILL one of the least injured teams in the NFL even with what seems like a crazy rash of injuries...we just don't see all the players out for other teams because we don't follow them very closely.

 

Injuries to non key players/starters would help as well.

Excuse for what?

That is the current narrative by many.  It has replaced the "Bills cant games by one score".

 

Just listen to Joe Miller (sans Fina) and Marino reaction to the last few weeks, excuses after excuses.

Missing multiple players on all same weeks for multiple games is not an excuse. Got it. Even if it's Milano, Edmunds and Poyer missing the same games, no excuse for our defense, none

Please don't post facts about NFL injuries and other teams.  Without the injury excuse most of the posters here would have to take off their rose colored homer glasses and peer into the reality of the coaching of this team and how they are being figured out and not properly adjusting.  Just because some of our backups were considered and played as starters on other teams, when they get here they are instantly scrubs.  Don't destroy their narrative, you will take all of their posting fun away.

I'm looking at the injuries as a positive right now. As long as the Bills keep winning, the starters will come back healthy and fresh for the playoff push. Go Bills, let's do this!! Defense wins championships!!

How about correlation of injuries to top tier players? What does that data show?

AND the backups will be THAT much better because of all the in-game playing time! Builds a deeper roster!

It's in the tweet with the bubble size. Bills have had bad luck in that regard.
