Early 90’s Rick Tuten / Chris Mohr were pretty good

I thought there’s a practice time issue with current rules and teams have moved away from backup QBs as holders .

He wasn’t . Bills reportedly contacted him, probably to gauge interest. He’s apparently not interested in the Bills job.

Probably wants to stay in Nashville for family reasons. Was supposedly considering retirement

He’s 32 so I’d sure as hell hope not!

That pretty much describes a lot of the Bills philosophy on defense anyway. That’s the case with or without White. There will be some differences but they’re not an attacking style defense.

They won’t bring White back until he’s ready physically. They need him for the stretch run and playoffs. Besides, this team doesn’t rush players back from major injuries.

It doesn’t , but the chances are less. Many plays are a struggle for him to execute. It’s a no brainer between him and Keenum.

They were doing what they felt was in their best business interest at the time. As things developed, something changed and it was no longer in their best interest. Probably not, but the media sure wants it to linger for a long time.

No hate, just realism. He’s a liability athletically. In real games against starters ( most teams anyway) the Bills have a better chance with Keenum.

The vote should have taken place post playoffs. Too much critical football wasn’t factored in. The Thanksgiving timeline makes the list junk imo.

I’d generally agree, though I did hear a national radio news broadcast yesterday that seemed to take a shot at the Bills yesterday- to my dismay. The closing sentence mentioned the plaintiffs attorney and his claim that the Bills ignored his communications with them.

Pretty sure that $ amount would only apply if the Bills traded for Kern. He’s a veteran so no waivers : he’d be free to sign anywhere if released.

This couldn’t be further from reality. The media are the ones doing the brainwashing - namely that theirs is the only acceptable worldview. Their opinions are generally despised by those who recognize this and are willing to speak up. Anyway, the Bills handled the situation well and hopefully didn’t make any decisions based on media reaction.

Don’t forget the local news outfits , who feel the need to get on the virtue signaling train . I briefly caught a bit of WGRZ’s nonsense before I had a chance to change the channel after the golf tournament. They wondered why the “ victims” words weren’t enough to release Araiza earlier. Pure garbage, but not unexpected from our terrible local media.

He also probably knows that a civil suit is going to be gussied up to sound as heinous and traumatizing as possible. Such things are written by attorneys- with all that implies. He’s a religious guy though , so maybe not as coarsened as some of us by what’s out there in the popular culture.

Would not be a fan of this. Get Kern or similar as a short term solution.

As a man of principles, perhaps McD’s faith in humanity was shaken by the cacophony of the media swarming like hyenas on a freshly killed carcass.

Seems possible , but unlikely ? Something made them change their mind and my guess is that they’ve moved on at this point. Maybe they told him to get this cleared up and he’d be invited back to camp next year ( whatever option they go with for 2022 is likely to be more expensive than the rookie) but only Beane, McD and Araiza know what was said.

I hope that this isn’t true, and that they recently became aware of something that didn’t jibe with what they were told to that point.

Why would they love to trash Araiza - who hasn’t been convicted of anything -publicly? Weird take imo.

College age people, including student athletes often make impulsive decisions. Especially at parties. She probably appeared to be another college student and that was that. It’s not like seeing the visible difference between a teen and a 35 year old. The vast majority of college folk must be idiots in your view.

This makes sense, but today it’s an outdated concept.

Good take. I may be older than you as it seems it’s been going on longer than that. It certainly has gotten worse in the last ten years or so.

Terrible take. This individual lied about her age to attend a college party. A 17 year old “ minor” can easily look to be a college student. It’s not like Araiza is some 50 year old pervert. This sounds like a typical college hookup. You’re picking nits about statutory rape. Anyway, it no longer matters as he’s been released, but I certainly hope as a fan that NO PART of the Bills decision was reached to placate the media.
