keepthefaith Posted November 8 Posted November 8 Any chance Curtis Samuel is back this week? His production has been crap thus far, but I still feel he can make a contribution once he's healthy. Quote

sven233 Posted November 8 Posted November 8 Really not liking how this is shaping up on offense this week. Looking like Shakir and Hollins as our WRs. We thought we were thin at WR before. Man.....this isn't ideal. That said, while I doubt it will happen, I'd like to see KJ Hamler get some run and try to add so speed to the position. But he has kind of been the forgotten man to this point. Wasn't even the 2nd WR elevation. But we really could use someone to stretch the field and the guys we have just don't do that. Quote

Sierra Foothills Posted November 8 Posted November 8 1 hour ago, EmotionallyUnstable said: Where did you get this from? They’re giving up 4.4 Y/C (15th of 32) seeing the 2nd most rushing attempts in the league, and allowing 150 Y/G (31st of 32). If you want to look at the split for the last three games, they are slightly better than their season average, but they still aren’t good by any metric I can see. DeForest Buckner who is one of the best DTs in the league missed 5 straight games and has returned for the last two. I believe if you looked at the stats you would see that his return has made a big difference in their run defense. Just a guess. 2 Quote

I’ve got a feeling cooper could’ve gone last week if he really had to and will probably play Quote

Minnesota rushed for over 130/4.2 ypc and they’re not a particular good rushing team. Vikings only issue was Darnold turning the ball over Texans offense has been a mess without Nico but Indy did a better job against them than minny 1 Quote

I'm not gonna bother crunching the numbers but I'm thinking the Colts rush D stats are better in the 4 games Buckner played than in the 5 that he didn't. Quote
ganesh Posted November 8 Posted November 8 The Bills have played two games in Lucas Oil Stadium with both being losses. It is their chance to fix that record on Sunday with a victory Quote

If he can play the team would play him. He is not even catching passes in practice. Essentially he is going to be here to help them win in the postseason. If he doesn't then they burned a top 100 pick to help them win the division which they didn't need help with. If coleman is out this week and samuels is active but still banged up and cooper doesn't play that is not a good sign and exactly what I was worried about in making this trade. again if he is healthy and makes a difference in the postseason his regular season will not matter.

That is an odd worry. He currently has an injured wrist. You were worried that we would trade for a healthy WR with historically very little injury history and that he would all of a sudden be injured here and not be available? I mean, do we not expect him back at the latest after the bye week? And he could still be back this week or next we don't even know. Just really weird to be worried about a player who does not have much of an injury history. 1 Quote
Nitro Posted November 8 Posted November 8 I live in the Indy area and am tired of going to games here and seeing the Bills lose. Sunday will be a change and the Bills will defeat the Colts. Defense will be the key. Sacks and turnovers will be the edge the Bills will need. 1 Quote

SCBills Posted November 8 Posted November 8 Based off practice reports, seems to be trending towards Cooper and Coleman out? You don’t want to take any game for granted, but with KC and then the bye week coming up, I wouldn’t rush them out there. It is what it is.. Maybe this week we finally see Curtis Samuel do something. 1 Quote
MasterStrategist Posted November 8 Posted November 8 (edited) Coleman out this week. Sean clarified he is "week to week" , "possibly beyond that" Edited November 8 by MasterStrategist 1 Quote
bills742 Posted November 8 Posted November 8 (edited) Coleman week to week and maybe beyond, that's not very helpful to determine a timetable. Edited November 8 by bills742 Quote
