Anyway, he was still going to make more in 2018 than he made in 2017. It was restructure or they were going to cut him. Don't forget they also threaten the team owners in a drunken stupor.

Royale with Cheese Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 12 minutes ago, Sky Diver said: We all know he isn’t a stable guy, although he had no issues that I am aware of in 3 or so years with Buffalo. How do you know what his triggers are or aren’t? The contract issues could also have occurred parallel with some other personal issues, like his father’s health. I do think that the contract was at least a contributing factor. How do you know? You're the one that keeps bringing up his contract as the most logical reason for his issues. 46 minutes ago, Sky Diver said: Do you think if had mental health or life threatening medical issues they would have offered him a contract? Jesuit education must have really dropped off since I graduated undergrad. I honestly don't believe you have an undergrad. I really don't think you have the intelligence to complete a 4 year degree. I really don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Gotta say, for the 3 years Ritchie was with the Bills, he was the perfect player. He stayed out of trouble, was a leader, gave Pro Bowl effort, and was cheap. But all good things must come to an end sooner or later. And I bet if you asked him now, he regrets the stunt he pulled and wishes the Bills would take him back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly there are mental health issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreggTX Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 Richie makes a perfectly valid point. He may be crazy, but his point is valid. We have the worst OL in the NFL right now -- maybe the worst in franchise history. I see no one is disputing the facts he presents. He's right. The 3 players we've lost are far better than the guys replacing them and Wood was terrible. Glenn was playing on a bad foot, so they gave up on him. Forget drafting a WR or CB or LB in rounds 1-3 nest year LOL. They'll be drafting a bunch of OL. They can't start Allen behind this OL and they know it.

nedboy7 Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I thought we wanted to lose this season to prove we are building or some BS like that. Well enjoy your oline folks. Maybe they will surprise us. I can only hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon GreggTx. Incognito has a point that he has a track record of both skill and experience, but when you're on the "downhill slide" of your career and you present yourself publically on multiple occasions as mentally primed to go postal, no team wants the risks. Those are the facts Incognito's actions present. As for our OL, I'll wait until we see how they play during the season to draw conclusions, but we have really needed to draft some more OL high for a few years now. Polian's point about the age of our OL may have put "sh** in their grits" but it didn't decrease their average age. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
