Maybe Shady has already called Chip and spoke to him. Maybe he has already "manned up" and taken accountability for his comments directed at Chip. It's quite possible that the situation has been handled in a more private manner and that Chip and Shady have put it behind them and that's why he doesn't feel the need to explain it to the media. At the end of the day, Shady doesn't owe anyone an explanation except to Chip. He certainly doesn't need to make it public and keep drawing attention to it. I'm sure there would be a number of ways the media could spin it, if in fact it became public knowledge that the two had spoke. IMO, it's time to move on, done and over with.

How may Jets fans does it take to screw in a light bulb? Doesn't really matter, they can never find the switch to turn it on...

I wonder how many times, pro athletes will attend, host, appear, or any of the like as a PR move rather than as an act of kindness. In this case, it seems to be that RM truly was acting out of compassion and friendship. I agree with the general sentiment of the thread, class act.

The Marrone / Hackett partnership is not much different than the Ryan / Thurman / Pettine partnership. While Thurman / Pettine is / was carrying the title of DC, Ryan is the mastermind behind the defense. Same with Hackett, Marrone runs the show. Without Marrone, Hackett would be unemployed. It's just unfortunate that Hackett ended up with Marrone as his security blanket, if the reports were true, that Marrone essiantially handcuffed Hackett. My personal feeling is that he could make a good OC one day, if he can break away from Saint Doug. But either way, right now he is stuck with him for better or worse and he has to play puppet.

While no one can say for certain that he will be a HOF'er, he certainly has the potential and the has started off show that He's definitely worthy of consideration. At least if he keeps on track.

Concern themselves with it and worry are 2 different animals. It's part of the industry. Year long reality show. Adds subplots along there way.

Admittance is the first step to realizing there is a problem... jk

Maybe I'm a bit out of touch with society, but WTH is "The Wire"?

Without fans, what would be the point of playing? They are in the sports entertainment industry. I think the fans have plenty of reason to concern themselves with the issue.

Irony???

I thought it was funny how the reporter mentioned Bryce Brown by name, and then ask the coach if he knew Bryce Brown name!!!

You know what they say, 4th time's a charm.

I'm on the fence, part of me wants Brady to sit because that gives us our best chance at winning, and at the end of the day that's the ultimate goal. The better their record, the better the chances of the playoffs. If the Pats** don't have Brady, I am sure everyone can agree that the chances of success for the Bills are much better. But part of me wants him to play because of the whole "Brady wasn't playing that's why the Bills won" aspect. I do not want to give those slimy Pats** fans a "way out" with excuses why they lost. I know that no teams hold back when the Bills starting QB is out of the game, but the Bills are typically expected to lose anyways. So it's No big deal when they do. On the other side, the Pats** are typically expected to win, same thing, No big deal when they do. When they do lose, it's more of a big deal, especially if at the hands of Rex Ryan and the Bills. I want Brady to have to be a part of all the criticism that will surely follow now that he can't "manipulate" things to be in his favor.

I thought it was kind of funny how this reporter called Joe B. out

IMO, it was more about the Richie vs. Martin saga. I just tuned out the fact that he was trying to trash Wells and listened to it with the perspective of gaining more insight on the whole R.I. / J.M. situation. Actually it sounded pretty positive for Incognito. Hopefully he can return to form because it sounded like he was a great teammate. Think about it, what gives the NFL a bigger black eye? Guy who can't handle the pressure of life while in the NFL and contemplates suicide, or locker room bullying where 1 person takes the fall.

Regarding your opinion of O'leary, so far it sounds just the opposite. From everything I've read about him is that he is quite athletic and an old school TE. He just does it under the radar so to speak. I thought that it was quoted in an article that he has great hands and he can stay in and block very well.

I thought it was due to how many throws Trainor was making, not that they we're horrible throws. I may be wrong as I didn't have time to read all the blurbs and story lines from camp.

I bet Mariota sat in Chip's lap during team meetings...

My guess is to try and deter students from dropping out early so they can start getting paid sooner.

WTF is a fax?

Whatchyou talkin bout Willis...

So the Bills beat Green Bay, Detroit, Chicago, and Minnesota, but you are saying if it wasn't for those wins, the Bills suck? But they didn't lose to those teams, so I don't get how you can take those wins away from them. To try and prove a point? Had they made the playoffs, I wonder if you'd still be trying to discredit those 4 wins. The Bills are a team on the rise. Getting better each year as they go (finally). They aren't at the top yet, but to take anything away from them to play the "what if" game in order to say they are as bad as always, IMO, is just not fair.

It's a good ole hootenanny of a time...

Or velcro #'s, that way you would have like what 4 or 5 jerseys

I'm curious, since you put it out there, what are your thoughts on what the Bills could get for him? Who would be your impact player you'd like to see brought in? And at that point wouldn't you also have to pay said impact player? If you go with a draft pick as compensation, there is No guarantee that that player would make an impact, let alone the kind of impact that Dareus makes.
