billsbackto81 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Both of you thought the grass was greener elsewhere. One thought he was better off leaving a so called train wreck to pursue a crusade for racial equality only to resurface later saying "I still want to play". Bravo Anquan, Bravo! Now your sitting home watching when you could've been on a playoff team. And then there's you Mr. Maclin. As much as this city welcomed you and offer you an opportunity to start while your friends Shady and Tyrod sang your praises you decided to go elsewhere. Again under the presumption you would be playing on a playoff contender instead of wasting time on a rebuilding team. How's that working out Jeremy? At least you have that lifetime supply of crabcakes going for you. They'll come in handy while entertaining friends as you watch the Buffalo Bills play in the postseason. I don't know why I started a thread on these two and maybe I should have just let it go. I just felt an overwhelming need to vent on how they disregarded the franchise and how upset it made me and other fans. I'm so happy for this team, coach and fan base. In a season where everyone thought, "what are they doing"? They caught the breaks and broke the curse. What are they doing? Their playing in the playoffs baby!!!!

Beast Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Look, I saw Boldin lumbering down the field during a pre-season game. He’s the Mike Tolbert of wide receivers.......only worse. Tolbert is in the playoffs and Boldin is sitting his fat ass home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fadingpain Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Boldin's tank was beyond empty in pre-season. That was obvious. I don't hold his decision to throw in the towel against him at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevewin Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 Love that Beane didn't let go of Boldin's rights - and said we made a commitment to him, and he made a commitment to us. Perfect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deonte had 27 receptions for 430 yds and he wasn't even here the whole year. Why would we have ever wanted to add a receiver. Besides the fact that we did.

Maclin never signed. He did nothing wrong but choose another employer. Some feel as though he rejected them personally, and that's more on that individual than Maclin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgrochester55 Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 (edited) I hold no grudge against Maclin. Players always choose what they think is the best fit and I don't remember him being disrespectful to Buffalo in any way when choosing to go elsewhere. Boldin on the other hand got what he deserved. Had he said upfront that the changes made him feel that Buffalo was no longer the opportunity that he thought it was after the trades, it would have sucked but been at least honest and understandable at the time. Instead he fabricated a spiritual calling to be on a social justice crusade which apparently was going to take place in Florida or Boston as soon as the playoff hunt came around. Sorry Boldin, your loss, not ours. Edited January 1, 2018 by dgrochester55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heavy Kevi Posted January 1, 2018 Share Posted January 1, 2018 I wonder hiw Anquan feels now. Lying to everyone when he quit on us about social change of whatever, but we all know he quit because Sammy got traded and thought we were in the toilet. Eat it, and you still can't play in the NFL because we own your rights. Nana nana boo boo. I feel better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This doesn't wipe away the years of mismanagement and all of the losing, getting blown out on Sunday does matter. Let's make this a routine and not in the Texans way of getting blown out in the playoffs in the wildcard. Winning the Superbowl is when you can talk ****, talking **** about a wildcard spot makes you look like a pathetic loser.
