you do realize it is one thing to criticize, but you take this whole thing as some kind of challenge. No one is saying we need to "lock horns with you" as you stated. The problem is that you have taken the things you post about to a crusade level. People here have made it clear their stance on the Peters situation. I have said in the past if he would get himself to camp odds are he would get what he wants by being a team player and honoring the current contract he has. You and I disagree on it, that's fine. You mention us overpaying for rotational and backup players, I don't see us overpaying but I also don't see the problem with signing the players you have before they hit the open market. Plus doing those contracts is probably a lot easier because they are not top tier players. And also, I am not naive enough to think there have been no communications between the Bills and Peters, however the ultimate issue comes down to, who is being hurt more by Peters not being there? The Bills? not as much as what Peters is losing in salary and lost wages, and right now his status as a team player is dropping as well. The hard stance is fine, but as it has been mentioned in the past, the players the Bills have signed to keep them with the team for the most part have shown up to camp and OTA's and worked to get new deals. These statements are nothing new and people have been posting them since this started, however I also understand the points that Peters runs the risk of injury and it's not guaranteed, etc etc.... The problem is that this is the NFL and these players know that any play could be the last one they play and they want to be paid for it. That's fine too. People should at least be able to understand both sides of the argument. And personally i think people have "attacked" you because you keep saying the same thing and it doesn't appear you want to take the view of the other side, try and throw something positive out there sometime and people might back off
