YoloinOhio Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) It falls on the org structure set by the Pegulas http://blogs.canoe.com/krykslants/nfl/you-could-see-latest-bills-melodrama-coming-and-the-blame-it-must-be-said-falls-on-the-pegulas-but-heres-how-they-can-fix-it/ Interesting thoughts, many conveyed by posters here as well Edited September 3, 2015 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Jerky Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) What makes it a mess? I don't get why people are making it bigger then it is. Why not talk about some other old guy getting cut. What about the CB from the bears? Edited September 3, 2015 by Beef Jerky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beef Jerky Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) You know what the Bills aren't the only ones with troubles. Our first opponent is having internal problems also. I see a quote from one of the paragraphs that reads, "Even at this level, fear is still a healthy motivator" Whaley sure put the fear in these players knowing, hey I better play my ass off. http://forums.colts.com/topic/39972-kravitz-growing-disconnect-between-ryan-grigson-and-chuck-pagano/page-1 Edited September 3, 2015 by Beef Jerky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Yep. It was easy to see coming. Other media outlets love it when they can just react to a TG 'scoop' and not have to work to come up with anything original or interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJasper Probincrux III Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 i agree the fact he got cut should not be painted as a mess. It's the leaks that followed... Throwing Whaley under the bus, staff and FO discord, etc. I agree, the leaks are an issue and have been for many years. The Bills as an organization do a very poor job of keeping things in house. I wonder how many staff people inside the building are hold-overs from Ralph and how many of them are the sources of all these leaks over time.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I don't think having a top football overlord or president would have helped or is even necessary. Whaley made the decision and claimed he got pre-approval from rex and the Pegulas. I don't think a different structure would have changed anything. If Whaley did go rogue, then everyone is lying about what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scribo Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 You've spent all of this money on TY and Johnson, all of these high draft picks on WRs and TEs, yet I fear Chuck will once again head to Buffalo and try to grind out the game, playing right into Rex's hands. When you win the lottery and land a QB like Luck or Rodgers, you don't play like the Jets or Bills. You know what the Bills aren't the only ones with troubles. Our first opponent is having internal problems also.

Kelly the Dog Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 I don't think there is any reason to believe that Ryan was not told and in favor of the Fred situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSaint Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) That's a whole lot of conjecture based on observation and a couple Tim graham tweets. Would make for a solid post here but if he has access to the team it would've been nice to have it a bit more fleshed out before rolling it. Did he wrote similar in January predicting the issue? Just curious as I don't know what his view has been. Edited September 3, 2015 by NoSaint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share Posted September 3, 2015 I don't think there is any reason to believe that Ryan was not told and in favor of the Fred situation.i believe it was Sal who reported that "some coaches" did not approve of the move. Since Sal technically works for the team I don't know if perhaps that was an intentional leak so the players didn't look at the coaching staff as the bad guys here. Just a thought.

YoloinOhio Posted September 3, 2015 Author Share Posted September 3, 2015 I think it's a good summary however his suggestion of giving Rex FO responsibilities would worry me a little. I think Rex should report to Whaley but the horse is already out of the barn there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
