#Bengals DE Sam Hubbard is expected to miss a few weeks because of the left calf injury he suffered Sunday, per source. The hope is Hubbard – who has started every game and has 6½ sacks this season – can make it back for the playoffs.

We do not rotate much our starters on the D-line play a lot of snaps Hub Hendrickson Reader and Hill. So, our backups only get play time when a starter needs a breather or is injured so a lack of experience for our depth guys is going to be an issue. I would like to see more of a rotation to keep our guys fresh for 3rd and 4th quarters when their O-line gets winded.
We need to find more pass rush so maybe this will end up helping our team in the long run if some of the depth shines like Ossai Tufele Sample or Gunter. As well as give the coaches confidence in these guys to play them in a rotation when Hendrickson and Hubber get back.

Man. It’s going to be tough sledding for a while

Trying to find a positive in this, and at least Trey and Sam - who both play A TON of snaps - will be going into the playoffs somewhat rested.

Ossai & Sample are just gonna have to do some work. If Hendrickson gets back sooner that would help a lot. I was gonna say we would play more 3 rushers/drop 8, but with CTB, Hilton, Davis, and Awuzie out, we are kinda short-handed right now at DB as well. I wish Kareem hadn't gotten poached off the PS. I kinda liked him better than Gunter (despite the blocked FG earlier).

In reality, if these injuries had to happen, we are probably lucky with the timing. Didn’t happen until we are all but guaranteed a playoff spot. Didn’t happen so late that they should miss the playoffs

Maybe he, Hill, or even Carter do something. Pats are more run 1st, so we will miss Sam vs the run. Getting Hilton back would help a lot. The offense may have to carry us for a week or two. Maybe Jackson will be rusty and Baltimore loses another one.

I've been waiting for Ossai to have a breakout game for well a while now. Here's his chance
12-19-2022, 01:38 PM
I'd be putting in a claim for Terrell Lewis even though I am not sure we could get him.

Oof.

Well... at least NFL players have access to some of the BEST injury treatment on the planet.
Get healed up, Hubbard. |
