berg1029 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I know that Vontae released that statement saying that his retiring had nothing to do with the Bill's players or coaching staff, but the optics of this are really bad.

JTown Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I said before yesterday's game that I think Mc clappy may have lost this team. There is so many unanswered questions and imo not one person is playing inspired football. I believe that it is going to get much worse before it gets better. I hope that I am wrong and that this is the "process" and I am too stupid to see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am resigned that they have until probably the beginning of the 2020 season and the data by then will be clear. They will sink or swim. If they were fired this minute, Im not sure I would be happy or supportive of that. I wont ignore data though and attack those who may not have complimentary things to say. Vantae Davis is trash for what he did. But it is very unusual and happened on the Bills. They also willingly signed Davis for more than EJ Gaines got, and about the same as Preston Brown. It is another small warning signal to join a growing number of warning signals. Preston Brown, who played a season under these guys and Im sure has some close friends on the Bills, says "there are weird things going on up there".... it shouldnt just be dismissed as "Preston Brown sucked anyways" (he didnt).

skibum Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 I love how everybody talks smack about the former Bills, as if they were all bad eggs and addition-by-subtraction moves by the GM - when all this team has done is suck so much more in their absence. Preston Brown had a lot of good games for the Bills, and he's probably right. Something ain't right when a veteran player retires in the middle of a game, the same game in which his defensive coordinator is basically benched by the head coach. Almost every player who was once a starter here and got dropped by Beane is an upgrade at his position over what we have now. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K-9 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Davis’s halftime retirement reflects poorly on one party and one party only. Never knew new I had something in common with Preston Brown, though. We are BOTH glad he’s no longer on this team. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bray Wyatt Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Of course Preston is happy where he is, playing for essentially his hometown team and they are 2-0.

LeGOATski Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Davis couldn't hang anymore. He let up that TD to Williams with no fight. Are any of us thinking Davis was actually playing well?

As many former Pats players have said you go to NE to win a ring and not much else. When NE finally settles into the mud I can imagine all kinds of juicy stories about Bill B. Let's not worry about what others have to say especially when they have no emotional bond to WNY. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) Its mind boggling that people are turning this on the organization, the players, the staff, etc. Davis has been AWFUL...not kind of bad, not up and down, but straight AWFUL since joining the Bills, and I was a guy that thought he was going to help make our secondary better. This guy barely made the 53 man roster, then was a healthy inactive week 1. And I am sure for a guy with his level of a previous career, being a healthy scratch, barely making a roster spot, etc was a huge reality check to just how bad he is right now. Then he was not getting it done in the game either. This guy reminds of the guy who misses everything at the park during basketball and then starts limping or acting like hes hurt to have to "sit out" rest of game to hide that hes quitting cuz hes getting embarrassed. In fact, this IMO makes the team and organization look BETTER because McD saw this and held him out of week 1 knowing he isnt close to what he was...and McD took over the D play calling and Davis quit, then this whole defense flipped a switch at halftime and shut down Chargers in 2nd half after this. The ONLY person who looks bad here is Davis. I dont fault him for calling it quits because he is clearly a shell of his former self, but he should have waited until after the game not at halftime leaving his teammates hanging. This will now define his career instead of his resume. Edited September 17, 2018 by Alphadawg7 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players are no different than the rest of us. For some it is about getting paid and if they believe in an honest days' work for an honest days' wage then we have little to worry about.
