And oh yeah, CB2 is unsettled, MLB is in shambles, and both starting OTs are underwhelming. Did I miss anything? That about sums it up. I will retain hope that Dawkins can return to decent form because he has proven it in the past. But there are definite concerns here. None of them are shocking in any way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't he go down awkwardly last week also after his leg got rolled up on and was holding his knee?? Wonder if that played a part in this... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He most definitely was in the competition to be a swing tackle for the Bills. The Bills will need to look for some veteran competition for Quessenberry, who looks like the fall back option at swing tackle. He's not the worst backup in the league, but I am pretty sure the Bills were hoping to be better. The retirement of Shell and the injury to Doyle pretty much screwed that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They finally sent me in for an MRI, and it was a completely torn ACL... the sad thing is that our head trainer who made the initial prognosis used to be a trainer for the Bills. With all due respect, it a trainer is making a diagnosis, there was a problem with your college team's injury protocol. I'm pretty sure that Doyle is going to have an MRI or some test that will give a definitive diagnosis in the next day or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubba Gump Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 Right leg last year, left leg this year. The guy is cursed. Hyperextensions are painful as hell. I'm not sure if they put just a brace on his leg or an air cast. Either way, it didn't look good. I feel terrible for the kid. Maybe the Bills can convince Shell to come back now that he would most likely get more playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Van Demark is on this roster Game 1 Josh won't survive the season. Van Denmark was excellent last night from what I saw, playing exclusively LT. I specifically watched him on all of his snaps and I didn't see him lose a single rep, and I'm pretty sure he played the entire 2nd half so he put a lot of reps on tape. I would need to see him perform well against starting caliber talent before I fully buy in but I am certainly encouraged by what I've seen from him in each preseason game at LT. What makes you think him being on the roster is a bad thing? Edited August 20, 2023 by HappyDays 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn’t injury prone if he was walking it off. He might be Injury Prone. We should probably define it to make sure we are all talking about the same thing. (not that i'm right, but we should all be talking about the same thing imo, on any topic) I dont think it means a guy is unlucky. And i dont think it means he makes bad decisions to put himself in harms way, too much. It could be genetics it could be conditioning it could be not working out correctly. Or not listening to the trainers it could be his form / fundamentals / mechanics. And this is where bad conditioning reportedly makes players lazy about technique when they are tired it could be he has other injuries which are making him favor certain techniques, even though coaches tell him its bad form it could be a lot of things. I think the bottom line is: If anybody woulda got injured doing what he did, of course its not his fault (unless he shouldnta been there in the first place, like diving onto a pile or something). But if he keeps getting injured, repeatedly, doing things that wouldnt always cause injury, then we get toward Injury Prone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
