BillsFan619 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) If true, hopefully it’s a proactive approach that brings the team together. You can right this ship just like you did in 2021. It started with the Bucs in 2021, it can start with them again this year. Go Bills!

Success Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I was hoping we'd see a "player's only" kind of meeting. People can roll their eyes, but this kind of thing HAS worked. It can really clear the air on a lot of stuff, and hopefully the guys can get back to playing a little more loose, and having more fun out there. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's No Moon Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Von has no business calling that meeting right now. Players who contribute should.

Low Positive Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 They do this in other sports all the time. Sometimes players need to say things without the authority figures in the room. This happened this morning. Diggs' IG story about turning the page and getting back to work probably was posted after the meeting. I think it was just to get everyone to flush that loss and get focused on what they can control. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franco_92 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 They did one of these after the last Tampa game too didn't they? This team needs the mental reset and I'm glad they're being proactive. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Romes Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 There could very well be some burning resentment that players not contributing on the field are taking all the money, like Von and Allen’s best friend on the team. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SectionC3 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Good. Somebody has to be in charge and put his foot down. Enough of this ess. The Eagles did us a huge, enormous favor last night. Time to get right and get the train back on the tracks. And, if that doesn’t work, time to throw some people off of the train and shake it up a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) Maybe they are planning to kidnap McDermott and Dorsey. Tie them up somewhere so they can't be at the stadium Thursday night and just play the game coach less.

You can't make players become more talented. You can get players on the same page if you think things might be a little disjointed and take ownership of making things right tho. https://www.prideofdetroit.com/2022/11/19/23465240/detroit-lions-defensive-success-catalyst-players-only-meeting-reacts-survey 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
