Let’s hope he actually plays. He talks a big game

Zac said he held him out of New England because of the temperatures.  He didn't want to risk a just healed muscle in that cold.  

Would be really nice to have Hubbard available against the Bills but can see Zac holding him out an extra week just to make sure.

Who knows? Maybe Adeniji plays RT lights out all the rest of the season and playoffs and superbowl..Last year was last year. Irwin was buried on the PS last year.

Hubbard went limited!!! He may play

Hubbard practicing for a 2nd straight day. That at least means there was no escalation of the injury from yesterday's practice....fingers remain crossed

DJ not at practice...

I wouod be cautious with Sam. Sample played pretty well last week. And Ossai had made a big play seemingly every week (sack, fumble recovery, etc). 

I'd live to have him for Buffalo, but I want him for the POs more. 

Yeah, be cautious with Sam. Still, that is very encouraging. Didn't think he would play in this game at all a week ago.

Trey, Sample and Ossai did play pretty great against the Patriots.

But Hubbard might be the best End in the league playing running QB's right now. Would love to have him in there.

Uh oh. Why not?

Nailed it. Need him to contain Allen’s ability to scramble and run.

Injury Report 12/30

Out
La'el Collins-placed on IR

For the Bills, Stefon Diggs returned to practice after an illness. Other than that no change from yesterday

And when Allen does run put helmets on the ball, punch at it etc.

He can fumble a lot and our Defense is good at causing fumbles, namely Pratt and Bell.

I don’t see Hubbard playing this week.

He just practiced 2 days in a row so it is possible at least in a limited fashion that he does play.

Agreed. Love me some Bell, Pratt AND Hendrickson & Wilson too in this one.

He has 5 lost fumbles and runs a lot more than burrow who has 2. here is what worries me, some players start thinking turnovers and go in for tackle with bad technique  going for a fumble, I want to see great tackling first, contain him that is what is most important..

So i'm sure you've been happy to see how the Bengals usually have the first guy hold runners up while the 2nd guy comes in after the ball?

PFF rankings for D
Tackling - Bengals 8, Bills 32

Tackling is one area that feels consistent with this team

Bell said they practice it every week
