He probably did have to dig. It's not like he has a sign on his door that says "all McD complainers come talk here." Thats what journalist do. They pick a topic and seek out sources for that topic. It's not hard to have a preconceived idea that McD is not the right coach for this team. There are tons of Bills fans that all think that. So I am sure, that he sought out sources that would talk to him about McD. The thing is, you must not have read the article either because I am going to point out again that this isn't one sided. It's not just disgruntled players. It's not just "McD sucks because..." There are players that spoken good of McD. Some of Dunne's opinion also spoke good of McD. It's always easy to spot people that have not read the article or are biased against Dunne because they like McD... the go to talk about how it's agenda, and disgruntled players and such things like that.

The part that someone thinks to themselves "maybe the chiefs paid him off to write and publish this article." A lot of people are trying to irrationally pick this article apart and discredit it and most of those people haven't even read the article, including yourself. I find that thought in itself to be irrational. The writer is a highly respected member of the press/journalist world. The dude is not putting his career and reputation on the line making stuff up. Did he put his own thoughts on some things in the article? Sure, but all writers do that. All people do that. At least he is using facts from interviews he got first hand. In this thread we have people that haven't even read the article making stuff up to try and discredit it in any way possible because they have some irrational need to defend a guy in McD that they don't even know. I find that to be ridiculous. There is nothing made up in this article. It's things that people in the know have told him. Here we have people that are entirely in the dark trying to justify and make stuff up.

It’s Chiefs week - and the season is on the line

Thanks. Just seems weird to me that you can be arrested and have to post bail when you aren't actually charged with anything. As for the bolded, I didn't mean that in any kind of way. Just an easy way of me to put it. -
IDGAF about your corporate bs. If I have a friend and I want to give a friend a gift then I am giving him a gift. This isn't some person trying to sleep their way to the top in this situation. We have first hand accounts of the story written. You are trashing it but yet injecting your own made up stuff to make it relevant. Your stuff is just made up. The writers stuff isn't.

Vaccinated players and staff were allowed to gather outside the club. Unvaccinated players were allowed to gather in a group of 3. Pretty sure most of our guys were vaccinated except for the Bease and a couple others. The Titans were busted practicing outside the club at two different times leading to our game week, which was against the rules, jack ***** happened.

I'm sure its happened. Just because it isn't in the media doesn't mean it doesn't happen. I remember the sabres players buying the equipment manager a snow mobile. Not quite the same thing but sometimes players just love the people around them and give them gifts. This was a chip in from the crew because they loved their low paid coach. Nothing more. There was no ill intent to get promoted off the practice squad or any other garbage jazz to be mad about.

Come on now. Now people are reaching for conspiracy theories? I mean I will buy into the guy is looking to make a buck. It's his job, of course he is looking to make a buck. But the Chiefs paying him off? Thats a little ridiculous. As far as looking to make a buck talk... I highly doubt he would do anything to risk his integrity as a journalist, and he is well respected, trying to grab 8 bucks from some Bills mafia for one month. He is obviously intelligent. I think he is smart enough to know that you can't throw away your entire career for a one month money grab. It won't be that much money. He ain't retiring on that. If he wanted to do that he would write some corruption piece on the NFL or some referree corruption or something that is much broader and has more chance at subscribership across the entire NFL fans. Not just Bills mafia.

We aren't talking some corporate environment here where somebody is sleeping their way to the top. A bunch of players who make tons of money chipped in to buy a gift for their low paid WR coach that they were very fond of and friends with. It was done with nothing but love. There is nothing that isn't ethical here and no civil liability problems. What conflict of interest?

I actually knew nothing about this guy or what happened but I am curious now. Why was he put on the commisioner exempt list and then suspended after charges were eventually dropped and Von is still cleared to play? Like I still don't know what happened other than he was also arrested for domestic assault. Just curious the difference between how both players were handled. You usually google these things. Do you know? -

I'm interested in the stuff but would also like to see some X's and O's. It's been a long two weeks. I'm ready to watch some football. -

The point was in part to show the mentality and thought process of McD. It was a very small part of the article. Since you didn't read it, thats about all you can focus on. Which goes back to my point, if you haven't read the article there is no point of you running around trying to discredit everything. At this point, I am pretty much done talking to you. All you are trying to do is discredit something you haven't read to stick up for some dude you don't even know. It's pointless discussing it with you.

Chance of Playoffs now, according to NYT simulator

The Dolphins wont be in a position to have their season ended. Lose the division maybe (unlikely) but they are going to win enough games to at least get a WC. -

I'm sure a lot of players on this team would run through a wall for McD. Probably some wouldn't. When you are around I dunno 100 guys? I have no idea how many staff members there are on top of players. When you are around that many people, some will like you and some won't. Thats just the way things are. Everyone has a different personality. -
