That doesn’t look good. Bills getting decimated by injuries. If they lose I bet they rest stars next week after this injury fest

Every player sees the hurdles on high light reels and hears the oohs of the crowd when it happens.  They all want to get in on it.

The repeated Rodney Dangerfield treatment our guys usually get.

What I said was perfectly correct - just because we've managed to hold to FGs doesn't make letting opposing teams start the game driving the field a good thing. The goal is three and out or turnover on that first series.

Total respect if they do.

Not sure how many total sacks LC has given up this season, but do remember 3 in one game.

Oh, that's not good. Never want to see the stretcher.

Ummmmm…

I’ve been told that was good.

[jfkbengals]

Sad sight to see.

[Clark W Griswold]

Unfortunately it is not good

You are right! Small things that go unnoticed sometimes that add up and win games!
It also saves from people sneaking up from behind and punching it out.

Trey 100% meant to roll in to him very clever way of doing it.

Hope this Bills player is ok Tee rocked his jaw big time.

[Goalpost]

Gotta be a concussion

Nah, what you said was complete BS. We've done great on opening drives on D. 

[masonbengals fan]

Injury looked bad. Hate to see that.

[Destro]

Man, you hate to see that.

[*michaelsean*]

Oh man. Wonder what happened? He took contact in the chest. Wonder if his head hit the ground.

[Foolishpride]

Didn't look like it should have caused a concussion.

Ground can’t cause a fumble

I saw it live and it looked like he rolled when he didn't need to. But the initial replay looked like he avoided him. I hope it wasn't on purpose but it is a big game and he might be a little over hyped up.
