CaptnCoke11 Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 I have no idea what to expect this game. They could win by 30 or lose and I wouldn’t be shocked either way. 2 Quote
zow2 Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 I'm always chatting with friends who are fans of other teams and they constantly tell me, "The Bills will be fine, they will destroy the Jags, Giants, Pats, Bucs, Broncos, etc.." Whatever team we're playing that week. I don't know what they're seeing? But now it comes down to this. I think we can all agree that if they lose to Denver, it's over. We can pack it in for the season and not have to stress anymore about it. Quote
Shemp Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 I'm sitting out this week. If the Bills can't beat the Broncos under these circumstances, they should just pack it in. Quote

I'm at the point I don't really care anymore, the Bills obviously don't care, why should we. Quote
Beck Water Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Anyone hear any updates on Hyde and Benford? Bernard too, for that matter? Quote

Expand We should get clarity when the first injury report of the week comes out today. I'm a little concerned about Hyde since they brought in a safety. Edited November 9, 2023 by bills742 Quote

stlbills13 Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Can't believe I'm saying this but I'm ready for Fournette to play 1 Quote
TheyCallMeAndy Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 It’s almost guaranteed that Bernard will be out, I think the only guy to clear concussion protocol in one week this season has been Brock Purdy. Quote

DapperCam Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Russell Wilson has actually played pretty well this year despite the Broncos record. His biggest issue has been taking too many sacks. This isn’t a gimme even if Miami did wax them earlier this season. Quote

2003Contenders Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 Is it just me -- or does it feel like the coaches are not taking advantage of the "extra" days they have been afforded the last couple of weeks? I get that the extra time does help with healing the body, etc. but does not seem like they are getting any extra practice reps in. Quote

Expand They have such a late bye week this year -- week 13, I believe? -- that I'm totally fine with them using the extra days for rest. I don't think lack of reps is what's hurting the Bills this year. At the very least, the opportunity cost of "extra rest" vs "extra reps" seems weighted toward the rest, in my opinion. Quote

Expand There are all sorts of rules in the CBA about how often they can practice. Quote

And then just get disappointed all over again. Expand remember that year that the bills just needed to beat the steelers in the final week to get in the playoffs, and the steelers played all their 2nd and 3rd stringers? 1 1 Quote
