Why are IR players listed with a game status?

[FLFan]

The league requires that players in their  IR practice window are included in the injury report.  I assume to prevent teams from sandbagging with returning players.

They aren’t on IR anymore. The team activated their 21 day window.

To be fair, he was really hard on himself about that decision during the post-game interview, knew he screwed up and owned it, so hopefully he won't make the same mistake twice.  Then again, when it comes to making the same mistakes over and over, all I can think of is the Buffalo Bills defending Hail Marys.  So... hopefully we aren't in a situation where we have to find out if he learned from that mistake or not.  That's where I'm at.

Don’t know if this has been pointed out by other posters yet, but lots of money has been coming in on the Bills for this weekend and even the Super Bowl.  When the books want the Bills to lose, makes me nervous.

 

”The Buffalo Bills were consensus 2-point favorites over the visiting Cowboys in the weekend's marquee game. FanDuel reported Thursday that the Cowboys-Bills game was setting up to the one most popular with bettors of the season. "We are in another unusual position where a Cowboys cover would actually be a big win for the book, as an ever-growing liability continues to come in on the Bills," a FanDuel representative said in a company release. Sportsbook PointsBet also has reported a surge of betting interest on the Bills to win the Super Bowl. Since Nov. 27, the Bills had attracted more bets and more money in PointsBet's odds to win the Super Bowl than any other team.”

Epinesa and Hyde out. The former could be a huge issue for us.

Maybe we wear the red unis for the rest of the year and tell Rapp our guys are all QBs - will that help?

Bills are a strong team with low odds because of their record. It’s a great bet for a sharp.

No, that's not quite correct.  They ARE still on IR - the team is not giving them a 53-man roster slot.  They've just been designated as eligible to return, so they get 3 weeks to practice with the team and try to work themselves into game shape

As much hate as he casts towards Buffalo, he’s always cast plenty of love and respect for Allen, sharing sentiments about his game and career that many fans would connect with.

It's Bills social media drumming up follows for their TikTok, so it's gotta be poking fun

 

"Bald Josh" as an ornament on a tree would be one

"Do you like hunting?" I *think* that's a recurve hunting bow case but not 100%

No idea what the significance of the NCIS DVDs is

 

Frankly their Tiktok stuff makes me feel old but I'm not the target audience

Can you give us the lo-down on the weather?

[The Red King]

Buffalo can beat anyone.  It's consistancy that is a problem.  If we bring our 'A' game we can win, or even rout them, even if Dallas brings theirs.  That's the question though.  Will we get an 'A' game out of Buffalo?

If it makes no difference to the 'Boys if they play inside or outside --- why is their record 3-3 away ave 23.6 pts scored, and 7-0 46.5 pts scored at home?

You just let the ball bounce in this case.  Do not pull a McKenzie and try and catch a ball that is swirling.

Because they are in their practice window so technically can play.
