HappyDays Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Heard from my usual source on this. McGovern has an MCL sprain that does not require surgery. Could have been worse but the usual recovery timeframe on those is typically 4-6 weeks so he'll likely miss a few games. My source thinks closer to 4 weeks and he'll wear a brace. That would put him back in week 3, although that is an educated guess not definitive. 2 3 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That time table if true really puts him on the PUP bubble. Wouldn’t be the worst thing if true. We have some solid depth there.

Always concerned about overall depth when a starter goes down. Kromer needs to really step up this year. He has to get SB on track. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our IOL is deep. It's not like McGovern is elite. The pieces are there so long as the back ups don't get injured. The Bills are more vulnerable at the tackle position. If Brown or Dawkins go down then I'd be more concerned. Even then, Beane has a solid plan for that too. Almost everyone in the league has oline concerns. Remember, number 17 can make up for a lot. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious McGovern stayed out with the team yesterday to watch remainder of practice and not seen on crutches immediately after. But perhaps they found out more today, testing/imaging. Depending on severity of sprain, Week 1 will be challenging to play. Agree with your take on Edwards/Bates being capable depth, Quennin Williams seemed to have a field day LY with our IOL (will need to see how much of that was Morse/Bates).

78thealltimegreat Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 The Bills interior play is much better. It’s the tackles that are the concern and also James Cook getting bouncey and not the hitting holes that where actually opened for him see his 2nd and 4 debacle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's against Ken's philosophy, but hoping he has learned that lesson for this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
