    So you have a time machine and can prove these injuries wouldn't have happened if the schedule was different? Seriously wtf did you want the NFL to do given the circumstances.

    More like AR2 lets his HC jerk him around. How about telling Tomlin you need to upgrade your OC? You know someone that isn't yours and Ben's buddy.

    The 3-in-12 difference is the recovery time teams normally get after the short week: 10 days (Thursday to two Sundays later). The length of that recovery period, after being battered twice in four days, is crucial to subsequent performance and injury prevention.

    I think I said it in the game thread at halftime The Bills will make adjustments and we will continue to under achieve running the same plays.

    Bud's injury made it easier to double team Heyward, once they controlled him their offense took off in the second half. Watt was handled mostly singlehanded by the Bills left tackle only a few times did they double him.

    It would have been a huge uphill climb to make a come back when at one point we had 3 Olinemen out at the same time.

    2-1 over that 3-game stretch with Duck and Mason running the show vs. 1-2 over this recent stretch with a sure fire HOF running the show

    I think the core problem is the O-line. That is what has the potential to ruin the season.

    We better patch that line up and get better play out of it by playoff time.

    Just missing too many people, or players not playing to their potential due to injury.

    I think that about sums it up. There is nothing you can do, I'm not even mad to be honest.

    Playing 3 games in 9 days is what did us in.

    That may have led to some of the injuries, but that isn't an excuse tonight. The Steelers had over a week between games and couldn't even manage to show up for the first half tonight.
