StHustle Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 At this point I think the only thing that can save this kid is taking a polygraph test by an independent firm and passing with flying colors. Not sure if this sort of resolution has been discussed within the 50 pages since I was last active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if any part of this ends up being true I will immediately help yeet him out of town. You are totally right in my opinion. There is a point that alot of these things don't end up getting prosecuted but I hear you. He won't be on the team though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 5 minutes ago, MiltonWaddams said: My opinion is that the Bills intend to cut this guy. But, they need to go through the league and the NFLPA to make sure they do it properly. McDermott sure looked like he was ready to cut him and leave him in Charlotte. Why would they even have to wait? We need to make roster cuts. You aren’t required to explain why you are cutting a guy. 30 guys are about to be cut. It’s that simple 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 4 minutes ago, Ethan in Portland said: Just watched the post-game press conference. Seems pretty obvious to me McD did not have all the facts that came out in the lawsuit. That tells me two things. Araiza lied to the Bills and the organization did not get all the facts. I don't blame the organization. Its ludicrous to think they can investigate this on their own. Knowing what they know they should have cut him before the game. Even letting him fly home is wrong. McD's reaction when asked about female members of Bills mafia was painful to watch. I've been a vocal critic of McD frequently on this board, but he generally looked broken in that press conference. I will have a new found respect for him when they release Araiza tomorrow. There was a tweet that the locker between Ferg and Bass was empty with no name plate after the game. It’s possible they just got him out of there before the reporters came in. It’s also possible he’s but. Already angry McD seemed extra angry about the mid game statement. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just asking, because I am not sure how this would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make a good point about the hypocrisy. I actually think they rated the punter very highly and if it was a lower player on the bubble he would of been gone earlier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakeFrommStateFarm Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 6 minutes ago, muppy said: I think he had a huge debacle to deal with today as well as game prep for a preseason game. So No I don't expect he to be at the top of his chat game in retrospect. I think he is above all a man of empathy for all involved in this mess. That is why Im proud of him tonight. He's a human being not just a football coach. Muppy at some point the Bills are going to have to start answering questions. "We have work to do" isn't going to cut it They have to start answering questions on timelines and what did they know and when did they know it ? If they don't the press is going to start circling like sharks around a bloody kill. It will only get worse from here 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 The nameplate being off of his locker is ominous for him as is mcd’s entire words and body language. Guilty or not, wouldn’t be surprised if McD doesn’t want him on the team because he has an actual ginormous game to get ready for and doesn’t have the time or energy to deal with this 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattymafia Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 There's a lot more people on this board than I've ever seen. Hello everyone! Go Bills! Lets not punt all season! Josh Allen looks good in shorts! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not automatically believing every accusation means you’re a victim blamer. And if you aren’t immediately calling for the accused to be fired/arrested then that means you’re complicit. 4 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Since1981 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 (edited) If the SDPD hasn’t even made a charge after 10 months… how the hell can anyone expect 2 retired rent-o-cops from WNY in Buffalo (Bills) add to any kind of clarity? They didn’t. bills could never properly vet this before or after. Cut him, move on. Sorry, but life is tough, punters are highly expendable. He can get a punt job next year, if cleared.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Odd people calling out the media. They did their job. Every question was fair. It was the Bills that put out the BS statement. It's entirely fair to ask when and what they knew. And when he says they have work to do its fair to ask what work and how long will it take. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they were just trying to make a statement today by doing that. He will be cut along with the other players when they go down to 53 and they will sign Bojorquez due to familiarity Is bojo available? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
