Joe_Chief 1,092 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Josh Allen has the same injury that killed Big Ben for a season. If he isn't playing well and they drop another, KC has a shot at the #1 again. Just have to take care of business! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetlord 10,209 Posted November 8, 2022 Share Posted November 8, 2022 Yeah, a UCL isn't a fun thing depending on its severity. Hope he's okay. The Chiefs/Bills rivalry is the type of thing that makes the NFL so interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClarksvilleChief 193 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 So I'm wondering since nothing has been posted yet, did the bills receive bad news. Seems to me that if results came back with good news we would have heard something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be wrong, but I thought the strain was confirmed but the severity was in question. No word on if it will affect his play or whether he will miss time.

dhitter 1,424 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 He threw a ball nearly 70 yards in the air after he got hurt. Can't imagine it's too severe if he can do that. artsy and oldtimer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okiechief1 425 Posted November 9, 2022 Share Posted November 9, 2022 Severity might be more about what damage he could do to it by playing. If he can't injure it anymore than what it already is play thru whatever pain their is n keep going or if their is a chance he could further damage it to a point of needing surgery sit him for a couple games n let it heal.

There have been many pitchers that continued pitching and throwing fire before realizing their UCL was bad enough for TJS. I think even Salvador Perez was dealing with the strain for a bit, gunning runners down and throwing the ball 100+ times a day before it was confirmed. Its been known to happen and quite frequently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday. I think they know exactly what is wrong, and how long he will be out, but for the sake of keeping their opponents game planning will be slow playing this one...regardless of end result I personally think he will miss 2-4 games... but i have absolutely nothing to base that off of other than gut feeling mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robgar 1,046 Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 its probably easier if its his kicking foot, that plant foot the amount of torque there.. You play golf right? massive amount of torque on that fooot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope.... my story is that throwing a 70 yard pass after the injury occurred has no relevance to the non existence or severity of the injury. Kind of like when rivers played with a torn acl or players continue to play at a high level after breaking something or tearing something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thegoatee 1,780 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 That team has no running game beyond Allen. Allen is the offense and he could land/brace himself bad on a tackle and blow up the elbow further. They’d be stupid to risk a bad injury for short term seeding. They should focus on saving him for the playoff run in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West 6,713 Posted November 12, 2022 Share Posted November 12, 2022 He has a history with this injury. My thoughts are that he needs rest for it to heal properly. If he keeps playing, he increases the rest this could be something that bites them in the ass down the road -say the playoffs. mex 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
