you think hes out for the playoffs?

[bobobonators]

I’m just hoping Rasul and Johnson can play. If those two can go we at least have a shot. Bernard is done, they were air casting it. 
 

Either Benford or Rasul. We need one of the two to play and Johnson.

Apparently Bernard had x-rays on his ankle at the stadium.

 

Probably having a better look tonight/tomorrow.

 

We'll know his status tomorrow.

A really bad sprain 😬

I hope so. Lol. He has arguably been the best most consistent player on D all year. Go Bills!

Lots of doom and gloom… my guess is Bernard is the only definite out.

I agree. We should have Dodson, Douglas, and hopefully one of Benford/Johnson. Not great but hope is not lost either. I just fear KC attacking the middle of our defense

[bouds]

This season has just been torture for some of these guys with their injuries.  Seems like Benford has something every other week.  Benard wasn't 100% and then that happened.  Just feel really terrible for these kids, all having breakout years, and then this happens.  Just bad luck.

[Johnnycage46]

These injuries suck.  Hope most of these turn out to be day to day with a chance to play.  With KC's defense points will be hard to come by.  If our D is decimated we likely get ended again by KC.

Bernard was in a boot and on crutches in the lockerroom.

Healthiest team in the NFL going into Week 18. Only missing Milano. Two weeks later and we fielding a practice squad defense. Unreal.

We were missing Tre

amazing news as he’d be fine by spring camps

Hopefully just a sprain for 43.

Hopefully not a high sprain- to the eye it looked like he may have broken it.

I think we all are in agreement he’s out. Im more curious about Benford, Johnson, Spector etc

Can’t believe we’re desperately needing Spector to be healthy 

[TFBillsfan]

Hopeful everyone is available vs KC with the exception of Bernard who most likely has a broken bone. Really hurts losing your two starting LB’s.

***** if he just has a regular sprained ankle, he could tape it up and play next week if necessary

Serious sprains are like 4-6 weeks I thought?

[PayDaBill$]

Liked the way Spector had been playing, how bad is he?
