WOW!!..I knew something was brewing when the report came out about him seeking a "second opinion" from other doctors. That's most certainly going to hurt the Bills defense as Hyde and Poyer together are the heart & soul of that side of the ball and communicate everything to the others. Poyer came into the season with an injured shoulder which has forced him to wear a brace and he's been banged up in the two games thus far himself aswell.
But I hope excuses won't be made if things don't go the way the media are all hoping it does for them because this is the list of Injuries we had the year we won the superbowl.
Ogbah
Okafor
Thornhill
Ware
Rankin

Darrell Williams
Maybe they'll get through this period of Injuries just fine? We'll see. But there's no doubt their defense being this banged up this early is going to be a big test for them both now and as the season progresses. [Reply]

Another couple of injuries on that defense and they could be the 2018 Chiefs having to score 42 points a game to win. [Reply]
The Chiefs have hands down the best medical staff in the entire league. That and Andy getting the team seasoned by playing starters snaps during pre-season are the reason the Chiefs stay relatively healthy as compared to most teams.
With that said, Hyde is a major loss. As big as White was last year. He is the steady backbone of that secondary who covers up a lot of grass and makes their other average corners look better than they are. [Reply]
