Injury updates
Marcus Gilbert (foot/ankle) expected to miss this week but injury not worst-case. Should return in reasonable time.

Practice participation will dictate the availability of Foster, Shazier, Golden, DHB, Chickillo, Jarvis and Nix.

Marcus Gilbert (foot) is "highly questionable" and Ryan Harris (leg) is "questionable" according to Coach Tomlin.

I’d guess Cleveland, but they already tried that a few times!
BUF fires Roman & go 2-0
Del Rio calls D, OAK goes 2-0
O’Brien offensive play calling & HOU put up 27pt
