    $207k per year.  I wouldn't be surprised if he gets a little more.

    He is here for 2 reasons .. 1) a great voice in Josh’s ear and who Josh respects; 2) to continue to build his credibility as a future QB coach .. which is the best path to OC and then HC

  3. The Patriots on the other hand are dealing with coming off a preseason game where there starters were smoked by the Raiders backups and Mac looked bad. This review from the Patriots website says it all. They have a lot to figure out quickly

    1) He should have made better choices.

    2) Her civil case isn't about the money. Whatever amount is decided upon is up to him to come up with.

    3) The Bills should have practiced what they preached when it comes to culture.

    1) if he is innocent wouldn’t that imply he made ok choices or are you asserting a 20 year old should skip all college parties?

    2) A civil case is about money (and if he is guilty rightfully so). You can sue and win a million dollars against a homeless person .. but you will never see the money. I am quite certain if it were my daughter I would want her to get as much as possible.

    3) So every time there is an accusation of impropriety they should cut the player? That seems heavy handed .. or should they wait till the Twitter jury decides the person’s fate.

    You act like the Buffalo Bills require the same burden of proof as the courts. Just like many jobs, the NFL is at will employment. If any of us were accused of such a heinous crime, you better believe our companies would let us go due, in large part, to optics. At some point he lied to the Bills staff and to the NFL. Based on the constant preaching of culture by Bills staff that should alone be enough to cut Araiza. The only place he is innocent until proven guilty is the court of law. No one else owes him that.

    By cutting him who do we hurt 1) Matt if he is in fact innocent .. he loses probably a tenth of his lifetime earnings; 2) the young lady if he is guilty as she will have less money to get from him in compensation 3) the team as whomever we get at this point will be a downgrade.

     

    i suspect he was not open enough with the Bills on the situation.. probably hoping that it just goes away, but I would be shocked if he is still on the team by end of day Sunday. Having stated that the victim be it Matt if he is innocent or the young lady if he is guilty lose by the maneuver

    The first negative feeling I've had about this team in a long time.  Hopefully not true and resolved quickly.  If true I will have a hard time being a Bills fan.

    If it is confirmed true they will cut him super fast. They are just waiting to see which is a reasonable response. As an example if you were a member of their Administration i would think they would not fire you if you were a solid employee and somebody made an allegation about you until more facts were known that showed you were guilty

    LOL no. I'm not a judge or jury and neither are you. So we really don't need to do anything.

     

    I'm perfectly fine judging Araiza on the facts as they lie. If more evidence comes out, maybe I'll change my mind.

    So you are not a judge but you are fine passing judgement on Araiza before the facts are fully known .. got it.

    I can't believe it took 84 pages for someone to call someone else a Nazi

    Please reread. Nobody called anyone else a Nazi. Interesting interpretation of me saying our fathers and grandfathers fought to protect us from the tyranny of the Nazis who would just drag people out declare their guilt and pass sentencing. Not an accurate one, but interesting.

    No one said he was. Alpha however was indicating that anything besides a conviction of a crime was insufficient grounds for termination. I'm making the point that a court doesn't determine who is guilty or innocent - just what can be proven at that time and place.

    This is an interesting point. The courts are not perfect arbiters of truth, but you want to skip from accusations to punishment with no messy thing called due process. Due process is what allows the court system to function and to eliminate that just so you don't feel shame as a fan of the club is contrary to what our fathers and grandfathers fought for in stopping nazism where an accusation could lead to a firing squad. Let the process work and as stated above if he is a slime bag and did this, the victim will have even more money to go after. If he is innocent we will be able to be proud that we let the process work.

  9. The problem of course is there is the possibility that he is innocent see Brian Banks tge HS star who signed with USC she spent years in prison due town allegation that the accuser many years later admitted was totally fabricated

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brian_Banks_(American_football)

     

    Or the Duke lacrosse scandal which the media jumped on.. assumed guilt ..and roasted them in the court of public opinion.

     

    it is more probable that something bad did happen to the young woman and if so Araiza deserves to pay the price .. and she would deserve every dime he earns. However in this country the assumption of innocence is essential to how our corrupt, twisted, yet best in the world court system works. If we fire everyone before they have their day in court why have a court system at all .. put it up to a Facebook vote and be done with it. 
     

    He has not been exonerated and he has not been proven guilty so he should punt. Worst case is he is guilty and he earns some extra money that the alleged victim would then be able to get.

    Hopefully no suspension. Don't want any big names missing that game.

    Nobody remembers who was injured and why one team won and one team lost .. they only remember who hoisted the trophy. If the whole Rams starting lineup was out and the Bills win by a point and that victory helps them make the playoffs get home playoff games and ends up in a Super Bowl victory. No problem on my end. Show me the Lombardi in Buffalo.
