awesome so Benford healed his broken hand enough he is ready to go? 

I was expecting him to be out longer after surgery. I know they play through pain depending on the affected part. But dam.

I didn't understand why they played him last week. Seemed like we could've let him rest another game. But who knows

 

The good news is the rest of the gang seems to be recovering. Unless something catastrophic happens on Sunday we should be very healthy after the bye week. Tre included

TRE included.  A well rested Bills team and a softer schedule should get us home field advantage.  The Chiefs have the 49ers next then have the Chargers twice, Broncos twice.. Russell Wilson is only going to get better .. The Rams & a rising Jaguars team

Don't know about your cousin man. He looks terrible. 

 

But they do have a tougher schedule down the road.

I didn’t know the Chiefs play the Chargers three times this regular season.

Maybe he needed important stuff like getting a thousand yards just before the chiefs game.

If he sat last week he would have been close to 100% this week. Worst decision of the year so far. May cost the bills a win this week

Hamstring injuries are tricky. You think a teams medical staff would hold him out because when reinjured it becomes a  problem all year. He came back a week too soon and they knew it.
 

I had a high hamstring injury happen to me in HS felt a little better before I was pressured from the coaching staff to play that week. I was done with the rest of the year. My senior year I was healthier, could still feel the scar tissue in my hammy and so it was still off a bit. Managed to lead the team in sacks and probably every game I played in. But it cost me any scholarship talk for colleges. Community college it was Lol.  It all worked out though. At this point in my life, happy to have healthy knees/CTE free over the experience of playing college ball.

Read somewhere he would be playing with a club on his hand….not sure if that’s ideal. But what do I know? I would think having two hands would be kinda important to intercept the ball and tackle dudes….

I remember Gilmore playing with a club on his hand and it was an absolute disaster.

I hope Phillips plays, if he’s ready this week! He is a HUGE factor to deal with, possibly a greater one than Miller?! Both of them and Oliver + the rest of that Dline rotation will tell us if they are ready to not let “13 seconds” happen again!!
