3 more guys out for the year and big names as well.

Thats brutal 

Carlton Davis and Alim McNeil have been amazing for them. Especially since the Hutchinson injury. 
 

Tough break for that team.

I'm thinking of our 2022 year where attrition just hobbled a team that looked championship caliber at the start

[LEBills]

Greatest QB talent ever.

The last couple of years, and especially last year, even the wins felt like losses and

Dudes like Keon Hollis Coop, Dion, kinkaid

They all seem like fun, full characters. Vs. Steph/Dorsey throwing a fits or tablets??

[Bills!Win!]

So we are playing the Eagles in the superbowl instead of the lions due to their injuries? 

[DrDawkinstein]

I'll give the entire team, coaching staff, and training staff credit, I really thought things were going to go opposite today. Lions with the dominating win at home, and the Bills getting out of there with a handful of big injuries.

 

I was going to be happy if we just escaped with no injuries.

 

Fun game, fun day.

[BillsFan130]

I couldn't even imagine being a fan of an opposing team, going against and watching Josh Allen lol.

 

Its got to be the most infuriating thing ever as the guy is literally a cheat code

We’re not necessarily out of the woods as far as injuries sustained in this game - Milano, Samuel, Brown, and Allen (although I don’t think our training staff is at fault per se).

 

Plus Bishop, but apparently that was just cramps!

Nope, Baltimore will be.

Wasn't Carlton Davis drafted with one of the 2nd round picks given to Tampa Bay as part of the Josh Allen Trade ?

Sure, but no clear season enders, or major blows to the team.

 

Milano, we're used to being out. Samuel is just a role player. Brown going out stinks, but we have very good depth behind him.

 

Any word on what's up with Allen? What part were they xraying? He take another shot to his left wrist?

Maybe but the Packers & Rams will have a say.

Samuel came in and played in the 4th quarter. 

Not sure what was the diagnosis for Spencer..He appears to have some sort of neck stinger

Shoulder I think.

They were just being super cautious according to Allen.

I'm guessing he took a hard fall on that play where he was off his feet when he got lit up.

I think it may have been his shoulder, on that last carry for like 1 yard (in hindsight, just hand it off to a running back, ugh)

Yep. 
 

As much as I love watching Allen lumbering past over and around ppl, at this point in the year, it really is not a responsible decision

no way… unless another incomprehensible collapse a la “13 Seconds” happens again.  Even then, probably not.

There was 12 seconds left before the onside kick and all I was thinking was not this time

It was my wife’s birthday today, of course, so I took her out to dinner.

 

I watched the first quarter before we had to leave (while she was getting ready), then turned my phone off.  The place where we went had a bar with a TV tuned to the game and I stole a quick glance while walking in to see that it was 14-7, which wasn’t terribly surprising.  Fortunately the dining room and bar were in separate rooms.  We had dinner reservations at 5, and stayed until 7:30.  Came home, and my wonderful wife gave me permission to watch the game immediately.  I just got done watching a little while back and, MAN, was that fun.

 

I’m sure the GDT was a GDM at times.  But the overall impression I got from this was that we punched them in the mouth.  Sure, Goff had 500 yards passing playing catchup against a depleted back seven, but let’s be honest:  this game was never really close or in doubt.

Took a nap.  Did I miss anything?
