MJS Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I wasn't very choked up that he quit. He sucked. It did the team a favor. I have no doubt that he would have been benched sooner or later, hopefully sooner. He just didn't have it any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy10 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 He’s taken lots of pills and booze, that’s my main takeaway from that article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Ranchod Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 In his defense... I know, it's crazy... once the guy knew he was done, why delay it? Why risk the injury? And why not let someone else step into your spot that really wants it, instead of 'going through the motions?' Isn't that actually a better 'team-first' call?

T master Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 WOW what a turn around ! Some of what he sad as far as the Torodol i can see why he wouldn't want to live on that stuff ! It amazes me how the NFL can out law so many other substances but keep a pain killer that is so addicting talk about a double standard & maybe that was a big reason he did what he did . ?

davspo Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 To each their own. It’s a brutal game, but there is no excuse to leaving 1/2 way through a game. Stand on the sidelines to support the team for an hour and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has nothing to do with fleeing the stadium at halftime, before the rest of the team even knows what's happening. Tell the coach you can't play, but don't flee like a coward.

Billzgobowlin Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Plain and simple he was a coward that talked to no one. He was getting toasted and didn't want to look bad on the field. I don't care what you think, it just shows the immaturity of him. That last bit about not having any Bills gear because of how he wasn't here long is a low class comment.

Never shown up hungover?? Damn!!!!!Us sales type folks do our best work hungover! Helps us concentrate ! ( plus we were prolly drinking with the customer the night before) On topic, confess i did not read the article, i just dont care now nor did I care then about Vernon Davis. Harsh as it may sound, thought he sucked in the preseason and should not have made the 53...see ya Edited September 19, 2019 by plenzmd1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddyjj Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 Personally I was ok with his quitting. Signed Levi Wallace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skibum Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I get it, it's his life and he was done. But you don't walk out on your teammates in the middle of the game, just like you don't just walk out of any job if you care at all about the human beings you work with. There's a right way and a wrong way to quit, and sorry Vontae, you did it the wrong way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soflabillsfan1 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 What a ***** article. Makes Davis out to be some victim. CEO of a holistic wellness spa? LOL. Didn't know spa's had CEOs. What a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maynard Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 All he had to do was fake like his groin was bothering him and sit out. After the game, let everyone know and say a proper goodbye. The whole thing still makes him look like an asshat no matter what he now says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgrochester55 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 (edited) NFL players can realize that it is time to go without creating the drama that he did. He quit in the middle of a game, He made a commercial mocking that decision. That makes him scum to me. The fact that he is still making this an issue today validates this.

"I absolutely wanted to stay away from Buffalo," Megan says. "The organization just didn't have a great reputation. When you're in the league, you hear things, and records show things." "When you're in the league"...oh tell me more, lady. This upset me. Apparently she's intelligent too. Is she just making this up? What reputation, or rumored reputation, and from what era, could she possibly be talking about? On 9/18/2019 at 9:03 AM, LeGOATski said: That's his wife saying that. She's not too keen on the actual happenings in the league. The Bills had one good season just prior to that. I don't blame her at all for her impressions of the Bills. The new regime is still trying to solidify the org's new reputation. She said "records show" that the Bills had a bad reputation. This is just pure nonsense. What classified super secret reputation records do player wives (girlfriend in this case) have access to? Is she judging Buffalo by walk scores or yelp reviews? None of it makes sense. She's just making things up because she didn't want to go to Buffalo. Edited September 19, 2019 by Nelius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
