Without Miller's presence off the edge, I have a hard time seeing the Bills winning the Super Bowl. Sucks. Von miller wasn't going to make or break buffalos superbowl chances. Your super bowl has and will always be josh allen. Y'all will be fine
nfreeman Posted December 7, 2022 Report Posted December 7, 2022 Dammit. That is a huge blow. He is such a difference-maker. So best case now is getting him back for the playoffs next season?

At this point you guys will likely cut him and take the Penalty i wouldn't be surprised if he had to retire hes 34 that kind of injury at his age is going to be hard to come back .

I could be wrong, but I think his contract is structured such that the cap penalties are unmanageable if they keep him for less than 3 seasons. He's an elite athlete who seems to be a pretty driven guy. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he plays well in the playoffs next year and very well in the RS and playoffs the following year. Let's hope so.
JujuFish Posted December 7, 2022 Report Posted December 7, 2022 1 hour ago, That Aud Smell said: What also hurts: Miller being shelved until early 2024 makes his contract a problem. If it's a partial tear, why would he be shelved for over a year? (Genuinely asking; I don't know much about this stuff.)
Sabres Fan in NS Posted December 7, 2022 Report Posted December 7, 2022 Von Miller was a great addition to a good defense and will be missed. I hate to do this ever, but I agree with @Buffalonill ... this playoff and every other playoff for the foreseeable future will be dependent on Josh Allen. 1
LTS Posted December 7, 2022 Report Posted December 7, 2022 I'd say that Allen is the key only in the sense that if they lose him, they are done. However, I don't think they can necessarily win just because they have him and even if he performs well. We saw that last year. The defense however will be okay. It's never just a situation of sacking the QB and I think the line will still be formidable. It's a question of whether the secondary can cover the receivers properly and if the D can stop the run. Two things they've struggled with.. individually and together at times.

Sure would have been nice to have him harassing Burrow and Mahomes when the time comes. 1
Buffalonill Posted December 7, 2022 Report Posted December 7, 2022 Looks ike you guys got OBJ. Poyer Spilled the beans by accident saying he was back in Buffalo today on The Pat McAfee show

Your super bowl has and will always be josh allen. Y'all will be fine I wish I agreed, but I don’t. The one seed has just become mandatory. I’m saying this because this is the same defense that had their season end at Arrowhead the last two years. Von was the difference. Now we have the exact same defense, less Hyde, to run it back a third time. Why would this year be any different? Josh already did the Incredible Hulk act last year and it wasn’t enough.

"We don't have sufficient evidence to charge Matt" that is it, the final words from the DA. Not to mention video of the girl and her intentions at the said party. All they proved was, he's innocent.

LGR4GM Posted December 8, 2022 Report Posted December 8, 2022 Id rather they find a partial (and sounds like minor tear) now than have him in the middle of a game blow his knee completely out. It is what it is and we will still have Vonn around the room helping our young pass rushers and being the pro he is. 1 1
That Aud Smell Posted December 8, 2022 Report Posted December 8, 2022 Yeah - I now appreciate the nuance involved here. Not all ACL repairs are created equal, obviously (except it was not obvious to me initially).
GASabresIUFAN Posted December 8, 2022 Report Posted December 8, 2022 Maybe this opportunity will make Greg Rousseau into a star.
mjd1001 Posted December 9, 2022 Report Posted December 9, 2022 Looks like light snow or flurries at kickoff for Sunday's game against the Jets, kinda-but-not-too windy, with a chance the light snow turns to drizzle by the end of the game. Not ideal conditions, but not bad enough to really take away anything the Bills want to do.

nfreeman Posted December 11, 2022 Report Posted December 11, 2022 Starting to get classic Buffalo sports weekend vibes with the Sabres getting swept and exposed by Pittsburgh. Rescue us Josh and Stefon! 1
LGR4GM Posted December 11, 2022 Report Posted December 11, 2022 Wonder if the Bills will get an offensive line this offseason.
