Buffalo Bills: Josh Allen downplays arm injury

During their game against the New York Jets in Week 9, the Buffalo Bills’ already precarious injury situation became much worse.

The fact that Josh Allen is now included on that list makes the situation much more concerning.

Allen lost control of the ball late in the game, leading to the final score of 20-17, after New York pass rusher Bryce Huff knocked it out of his hands. The next play saw Allen underthrow his intended target while also making a motion with his throwing arm.

The fact that Allen was able to end the game by throwing a ball 50 yards down the field to receiver Gabe Davis, although the pass was incomplete, is a favourable indicator of his health. However, the fact that he was able to throw the ball at all is also a positive sign.

Allen did admit that there was something wrong with his arm, but he played down the seriousness of the situation.

Allen shared his sentiments through a video conference, stating, “I have some small discomfort, but I will get through it.”

Keep an eye on the injury list as the week progresses leading up to Buffalo’s next game against the Minnesota Vikings (7-1), which will take place the following week. If Allen has any kind of therapy for his arm, he will be included on that list.

Case Keenum would take over as the starter if Allen was unable to play. Before joining the Broncos, Keenum was a member of the Vikings.

Alongside the presence of Allen. Also suffering injuries were cornerback Kaiir Elam (ankle) and defensive end Greg Rousseau (ankle), both of whom played defensive back.

It was clear that quarterback Josh Allen was frustrated during the whole of the game on Sunday, as well as when he was discussing his performance with the media after the game. Allen said that in a game like the one they played against the Jets when you are only allowed a certain number of drives, you have to make every one of them matter.

According to Allen, “it is difficult to win in this league when you’re playing a talented team and your quarterback performs like s—t.” “Made some poor choices tonight, which cost our squad,” the coach said.

Allen carried for the only two touchdowns the Bills scored on the day and led the team in running yards with 86, but the quarterback did not consider this performance to be anything near sufficient. After the day, Allen had two interceptions to go along with his 18 completions out of 34 attempts for 204 yards passing. His errors in tossing the ball are the source of his annoyance with the situation.

Diggs gave Allen credit for making several solid passes and rushing the ball, which more than made up for the few terrible plays that Allen thought he had. But because Allen has another game to look forward to the following Sunday, Diggs is optimistic that the team can rebound from this defeat.

Diggs said that there would be an increase in player turnovers as part of the process of “getting back on the grind” and “getting back to being ourselves.” According to me, our quarterback is the greatest in the league, and he is completely infallible.

Applying the phrase “excellent medicine” to the loss

Three early lessons to build on from the performance of the team on Sunday are to communicate more effectively, execute better, and make any required modifications. And Stefon Diggs has some thoughts on how to achieve success in those facets of play while out on the field.

Diggs made the following statement: “We know how to adapt, we know how to make the throws, and we know how to catch the ball.” “We just need to continue to be ourselves. I feel like this is the ebbs and flows of the season, particularly when you got a talented team, being under that scrutiny,” he said. “We’ve just got to continue to be us.”

Diggs gave thanks to the Jets for coming up with a game plan and modifying their strategy appropriately in the second half, which helped them to successfully shut down the Bills and secure the victory. And Diggs, who is Allen’s receiver, wants to make sure that they have a reciprocal relationship moving forward so that he can get open and create plays for Allen.

The Bills anticipate that they will be able to swiftly regain their concentration to be ready for the Vikings.

But this concentration isn’t only limited to the club’s next foe; it also extends to the divisional games that the squad absolutely must win on their schedule. And even though they have already lost two games in their division, LB Von Miller is not showing any signs of fear.

Miller reassured everyone that there was no need to freak out since they had a good squad. We still have six more divisional games. We just need to go back to the lab. We just need to take it one play at a time, one practice at a time, really debrief, and take a look at ourselves. “We’ll meet those guys again; we’ll see the Dolphins again.”

Miller is already feeling positive about the team’s chances against the Vikings in Week 10, which will take place at their home stadium.

Miller said that despite the recent departures, “we have got a tremendous collection of people in there.” “We’re going to get Tre’Davious White back, and I’m thrilled. It was good medication, and now we just need to reload and get ready for a solid Vikings team,” he said. “It was a nice medicine, and it was a good medicine.”
