716er Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Again all of this could have been avoided if they didn't draft a GD punter - the least important position in the NFL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 After McDermott's press conference, it is abundantly clear that, as I theorized, the Bills only had light knowledge of these accusations prior to yesterday, and they were probably misled. I think Araiza will be cut once they're back in Buffalo. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brianmoorman4jesus Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 (edited) With every passing hour I’m kinda thinking maybe it’s best to just end this thing. Cut him and just move on. If it turns out it’s all BS then that’s unfortunate (for him to lose his job) but at this point…just move forward and get rid of the dark cloud and distraction.

Delusional Bills Optimist Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 1 minute ago, UKBillFan said: That was uncomfortable to watch. McDermott didn’t say much yet was pretty damning. Three competing issues: 1. Team has exculpatory information that it would be EXTREMELY inappropriate to address now. 2. Bad PR, regardless of MA’s guilt or innocence, might prevent team from keeping him as they “search for truth.” 3. Team received extremely damning information 24 hours ago. I think number three is unlikely; if it was the case, he would’ve been cut by sun up. Number one would be brutal, as it would suck to stand up there and take those questions, knowing you can’t fully explain your position. IMO, number two is most likely. That’s a lot of pressure bubbling up right before the start of the season of highest expectations in a generation 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewookie1 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 I'm guessing Araiza's agent and he gave a far more mild interpretation of what happened and the Bills PI saw the cops were sitting on it and signed off on it being a likely non-factor. Then all this info comes out and McD, who seemed to really like Araiza, suddenly has a bombshell drop on him that those allegations that seemed unlikely may have actually been true and that the kid he's been working with and getting close with might very well be a despicable person who raped an underaged girl. It's that betrayal that is a huge gut punch. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The decision should be based on what he did, not the role on the team. If he was a rookie first round QB it’d be “ah well, let’s see if he’s actually guilty first”.

loyal2dagame Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 McDermott looked to be quite upset with the situation. Whatever the outcome, be it good or bad, i hope it is the right one as to what actually happened. I hope the liar(s) in this situation get their comeuppance regardless of which side it is. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fascinating that even though we all KNOW we don't actually know anything concretely about this situation, most of us are eager to make ALL KINDS OF JUDGMENTS/DECISIONS. McDermott's energy tonight hopefully means the Bills won't be downplaying and soft-pedaling this thing any longer. Hopefully they will do the right thing, whatever that ends up being. Your first part is true. There seems to be only one option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
